Api Usage Of Deepseek And Mistral
DeepSeek
In one month, 15 million tokens cost me approximately 23.5 CNY.
This was my usage in one day:
| Type | Tokens |
|---|---|
| Input (Cache Hit) | 946,816 |
| Input (Cache Miss) | 2,753,752 |
| Output | 3,100,977 |
The calculation is as follows:
0.94 * 0.1 + 2.75 * 1 + 3.10 * 2 = 11.83
So, depending on the task, the token usage largely depends on the input (cache miss) and output.
This result aligns with the expected cost.

Mistral
The pricing for Mistral models is as follows:
| Model | Input (USD per million tokens) | Output (USD per million tokens) |
|---|---|---|
mistral-large-2411 |
2 | 6 |
mistral-small-latest |
0.2 | 0.6 |
In one day, my Mistral account usage was as follows (Model: mistral-large-2411):
| Type | Tokens | Cost (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Total | 772,284 | 3.44 |
| Output | 474,855 | 2.85 |
| Input | 297,429 | 0.59 |
For the mistral-small-2409 model, the total usage was 1,022,407 tokens.
Assuming 1/3 of these were input tokens and 2/3 were output tokens:
There were 340,802 input tokens and 681,605 output tokens.
Therefore, the total cost is calculated as 340,802 * 0.2 / 1,000,000 + 681,605 * 0.6 / 1,000,000 = 0.07 + 0.41 = 0.48 USD.
The Mistral console reports a total usage cost of 0.43 USD, which approximately matches our calculation.
