Independent API gateway

One DeepSeek V4 API for apps and coding agents

Create one DeepSeek-V4.io key and use the protocol your client already understands. Upstream provider credentials and routing remain on our server.

Current route: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash. Keep using the public model ID deepseek-v4-flash; the gateway maps it to V4.1 server-side. Text input is supported today. Review model IDs and capability boundaries.

Make your first request

  1. Create a paid API key.
    Open the Developer Dashboard and save the key when it is shown.
  2. Use the public model id.
    Use deepseek-v4-flash; the gateway maps the upstream model internally.
  3. Stream or call tools.
    Structured messages, SSE, tool calls, and tool results are passed through the selected protocol.
curl https://deepseek-v4.io/api/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPSEEK_V4_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "deepseek-v4-flash",
    "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain this function."}]
  }'

Billing and service boundary

Paid token packs fund DeepSeek-V4.io web chat and DeepSeek-V4.io API usage. The free signup balance does not allow API key creation.

DeepSeek Platform and OpenRouter accounts, keys, and balances are separate from this service. This is not positioned as a cheaper OpenRouter replacement. The paid outcome is one DeepSeek-V4.io balance, compatible endpoints, setup guides, and usage visibility for the workflows documented here.

Usage is settled after the provider reports input and output tokens. Review requests and token usage in the Developer Dashboard.
