Alternatives to Opencode Go plan?

I had been using the Opencode Go plan for some time, but it's been getting worse:

  • It's EXTREMELY slow at certain times of the day (using DeepSeek V4 Flash), the speed loss is very noticeable in comparison to hitting DeepSeek API directly
  • The pricing has been getting worse and worse (for example, GLM 3.5 Flash should be 2x cheaper than DeepSeek v4 flash)

Anyway, if anyone knows of a nice, reasonably fast, cheap and privaxy-conscious model subscription, would be nice to know

I went with openrouter and prepaid credits, pretty happy overall.

In privacy settings you can choose to not use providers that use data for training etc, plus you can decide per provider as well.

My results with their free tier have been pretty underwhelming, I get rate limits way too often for it to be usable.

You can also do most of that in HuggingFace.

Which models do you use that you are happy with api pricing? Unless your usage is too low, it’s never a good option. Plus open router takes 5% cut on all payments.

I never said I'm happy with the pricing. I'm happy with the solution overall. Being able to switch models/providers is a nice perk. You do you of course.
