How do I call the DeepSeek API through Outrun?

    Open the Telegram bot and copy your personal key. It works for DeepSeek and every other Outrun model.

  2. 02

    Set the base URL

Coding tools that take an OpenAI-compatible provider

Does Outrun keep my DeepSeek prompts?

No. Every DeepSeek ID, like every other model on Outrun, runs with zero data retention at Outrun: prompts and responses stay out of Outrun's request logs, and API calls are never saved to chat history. DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 also carries a Provider ZDR badge, which adds zero retention at the model provider. Provider audit exceptions still apply, including records of generated text for up to 30 days.

How Outrun handles your prompts

DeepSeek API questions

The model docs list every DeepSeek ID with its current rate.

Do I need a DeepSeek account?

No. One Outrun key and one prepaid USD balance cover DeepSeek and every other model on Outrun. You get the key from the Telegram bot, and eligible new accounts start with $0.10 in free credit.

Does Outrun swap DeepSeek for a cheaper model?

No. Outrun sends each request to the DeepSeek model ID you choose and never reroutes it to a cheaper or different model behind the scenes. If you want the lowest price, choose deepseek-v4.1-flash-1017 yourself.

Can I try DeepSeek for free?

Eligible new accounts start with $0.10 in free credit, enough for about 410 requests of 2,000 input and 500 output tokens on DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017. The Playground also gives every account 10 free web searches a day.

Does Outrun charge less at off-peak hours?

No. Outrun bills each DeepSeek ID at the one rate shown on this page at any time of day. DeepSeek's off-peak discount applies only on DeepSeek's own API.
