# benderandrew069/deepseek-api-pricing-2026

> A guide to estimating DeepSeek API costs in 2026, breaking down pricing by model, cache hits, and peak/off-peak hours with formulas and worked examples.

- Magnitude: 5.5 out of 10 — Early signal
- Stars: 275 total · +99 stars measured 2026-10-30, 06:33–08:40 UTC, ≈ 242 by evening
- Star trust: star growth looks organic

## Useful for

- Estimate monthly DeepSeek API spend from token counts and cache-hit rates
- Compare Flash vs V4 Pro costs for a given workload
- Model how peak-hour traffic share changes the bill

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-30 (UTC), 06:33–08:40: 176 → 275 stars (+99). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +242 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 3 days old and already has 275 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #73.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 1
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 1
- Average over the last week: 111 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 43

## Stars per day, last 4 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
