AI Tools Review
DeepSeek
Deep Dive Analysis
DeepSeek publishes open-weight models and runs a hosted chat and API, priced well below most Western providers.
Target Audience
Developers who need capable models at low cost, or who want to self-host weights.
The Final Verdict
"Hard to beat on price per token. Check whether your data policy allows the hosted API before you build on it."
