Questions people ask
Is deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 better than gpt-5.4?
gpt-5.4 outperforms deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 on 8 of 8 shared benchmarks. See the benchmark comparison above for specifics — deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 and gpt-5.4 have different strengths across reasoning, coding, math and multimodal tasks.
Which is cheaper — deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 or gpt-5.4?
deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 is cheaper. deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 costs $3.00/$7.00 per 1M input/output tokens, while gpt-5.4 costs $2.50/$15.00.
Can I use deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 and gpt-5.4 through the same API?
Yes. Requesty provides a single OpenAI-compatible API that routes to both. Change just the "model" parameter to switch — "together/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1" or "openai/gpt-5.4" — no other code changes needed.
What are the context windows?
deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1 supports up to 64K tokens of context. gpt-5.4 supports up to 1.1M tokens. Longer context means you can feed larger documents or codebases in a single prompt, though quality often degrades past 128K for most models.
