0.05% of context reserved. Planning estimate based on characters ÷ 4; provider tokenizers and structured requests can differ.

The formula

From prompt to request cost

Estimated request cost equals input tokens multiplied by $0.435 per million, plus expected output multiplied by $0.87 per million. Cached input is separate only when the provider publishes a rate.

What changes the result

Count the assembled request

System instructions, conversation history, retrieved documents, tool definitions, files, and response length all matter. Use the visible prompt for drafting, then validate the final payload with DeepSeek.

Before you rely on the number

DeepSeek V4 Pro calculator questions

Is this DeepSeek V4 Pro token count exact?

No. It is a private plain-text planning estimate. DeepSeek tokenization, chat formatting, tools, files, and images can change the real count.

Does the prompt leave my browser?

No. The calculator runs locally in your browser. Only the page itself and published registry data are loaded from PromptCostLab.

How should I verify production cost?

Check the linked DeepSeek pricing page, then compare the estimate with token usage returned by the real API request.
