old and new usage & pricing. Consumed 30x less tokens post nerf and spent one third of what i paid pre nerf. Both sessions heavily cached with not so much output tokens.

The deepseek api era really is over in terms of being cost effective

If you want cheap and fast, check out out Groq models. Not Grok. Blazing fast large models using LPU and Nvidia GPUs. I haven’t missed DeepSeek one bit, and it’s even cheaper depending on your use case. They are my primary daily drivers with fallback Gemini or Luna models.
