DeepSeek's new V3.2-Exp model cuts API pricing in half to less than 3 cents per 1M input tokens

DeepSeek continues to push the frontier of generative AI...in this case, in terms of affordability.

The company has unveiled its latest experimental large language model (LLM), DeepSeek-V3.2-Exp, that mostly matches or slightly improves the benchmarks of its predecessor DeepSeek-3.1-Terminus, but more importantly, comes at a 50 percent reduced cost through DeepSeek's application programming interface (API), down to just $0.028 per million input tokens — and can keep costs down even when approaching the context limit of 128,000 tokens (about 300-400 pages worth of information).
