deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-vision-expModel overview
Understand the model before estimating your workload.
Use the model ID deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash-vision-exp through OpenRouter. The prices and limits on this page apply to that specific listing, with source data checked on 2026-10-12.
OpenRouter DeepSeek V4 Flash Vision Exp has a published context window of 1,048,576 tokens. The maximum output for this channel is 262,144 tokens. Budget context space for your prompt, conversation history, retrieved material, and the response. Context capacity and output limits are different; your input and response must fit within the request limits. A larger window does not make those tokens free.
This listing uses the DeepInfra endpoint rate through OpenRouter. Routing to another endpoint can change the price or output limit. Compare the endpoint shown here with the one your application actually uses.

How billing works
The details that turn a token rate into an actual bill.
Use the published billing unit
This model uses / 1M tokens. Do not substitute a text-token estimate for image, audio, video, or document charges.
Cache hits have their own rate
The listed cached-input price is $0.00686 per million tokens. Reusing a prompt does not automatically qualify: use the provider's reported cached-token count, and account for any cache-write or storage charges.
Check discounts and rate tiers
No batch multiplier is applied to the examples on this page. Check the pricing source before assuming an asynchronous job receives a discount. Review the provider's pricing terms for workload-specific conditions.
Account for the complete workflow
Retries, follow-up calls, and agent tool loops increase request counts. Search, storage, and other tool charges can be billed separately from model inference. Use actual API usage logs to calibrate a budget before scaling traffic.
