I use deepseek via openrouter and deepseek direct. many american providers offer deepseek.
also from deepseek directly - works great with opencode / openchamber
Isn’t that kinda expensive as fck? I tend to use all the weekly usage of ChatGPT 20x within 1-2 days, and I already work with different gpt models, with different reasoning levels. So I am not sure if I can afford OpenRouter to be honest.
Not expensive with those models. Glm and deepseek. Problem with chatgpt they train you your data, basically siphon what you have and someone else could build your product faster than you. There is a recent case theybstole some scientific breakthrough.
Openrouter has zero data retention and zero training. Which is why I use it.
Chatgpt can't be used by companies
Will give it a go. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
