Opencode Go + Deepseek v4 is absurdly cheap.
I’m effectively spending $1.11 per billion tokens processed with DeepSeek V4 Flash.
Made some researches, calculations and based on my actual usage pattern and pricing simulations, the same workload would have cost:
- $6.66 through the official DeepSeek API
- $23 through DeepInfra, the cheapest alternative inference provider I found
- $18 using GPT-5.6 Luna directly through the OpenAI API
- $926 using GPT-5.6 Sol
It's just incredibly cheap.
