R1

text->text

Open-weights reasoning model with chain-of-thought trained via RL. Comparable to o1 on math benchmarks at a fraction of the price.

R1 is a reasoning AI model from DeepSeek. It costs $0.700 per million input tokens and $2.500 per million output tokens (blended $1.240/M), with a 64,000-token context window.

Profile inherited from upstream DeepSeek-R1 — this is a hosted variant of the same open-weights model.
