DeepSeek V4 Pro 0813 launches with 1M context and $0.435 per million input tokens

DeepSeek's V4 Pro 0813, the GA release of V4 Pro, is now available on OpenRouter. This large-scale mixture-of-experts model supports a 1M-token context window and is priced at $0.435 per million input tokens and $0.87 per million output tokens. It features hybrid attention for efficient long-context processing and supports reasoning efforts up to 'xhigh', making it suitable for complex workloads like full-codebase analysis and multi-step automation. The model is hosted solely by DeepSeek, with caching bringing the average effective input price down to $0.1537 per million tokens.

DeepSeek V4 Pro is a large-scale Mixture-of-Experts model from DeepSeek with 1.6T total parameters and 49B activated parameters, supporting a 1M-token context window.

    Why does this link to OpenRouter, which has no useful information on its own? Linking to the official API or the benchmarks would make more sense:

    - https://api-docs.deepseek.com/

    Have been letting it spin pretty hard (~$12.50 for 2B, 50% cache hits) on my traffic simulator/distributed physics engine all day, it's found some pretty significant gains without introducing any new problems.

    I'm happy

    Nice bicycle chain, the little basket with a fish didn't show up in the right place: https://tools.simonwillison.net/markdown-svg-renderer#url=ht...

    I've been using the last Deepseek Flash update for a week and I'm amazed. It was a capable model for easy tasks but now it looks like it can do some heavy development for peanuts.

    I can't wait to try this new one.

    What I care about is whether the model is capable of the tasks I give it at the lowest cost. Right now I'm using Kimi-K3/GLM-5.2/Minimax. Sonnet is great but I burn through the tokens too fast. Opus 5 set to max is amazing and more intelligent than all of us. .998 of the time I don't need that kind of intelligence. I just need the job done.

    Tested both DS v4 pro 0813 and Grok 4.6 (all from openrouter) on Codex cli. Worked on a same new feature development on my project.

    Deepseek 4 pro: Worked for 12m 02s - cost $0.12 - has bug.

    Grok 4.6: Worked for 3m 18s - cost $ 1.41 - no bug.

    Just tested through openrouter.. gave exactly same task.. the task was to scan existing repo, and generate a single docker-compose file to deploy behind a caddy server, where certain port ranges are already used, the service demands widlcard certificates to be provisioned from outside, and postgre needs to be built-in one...

    Tested this model, and gpt-5.6-terra-high.

    Results: this one had few issues. terra: none.

    These results are consistent with my past observations with the latest flash version as well. What benchmarks say, vs what I've been observing are different.

    They are good till the project is simple... not anymore.

    Currently burning money quickly on official deepseek api. They are also increasing pricing starting today. V4 Flash 0731 still feels like the most outstanding model of the past few months and probably to come.
