Output costs 2.0× the input price, so long replies drive the bill more than long prompts. If your requests share a long fixed prefix, such as a system prompt or tool definitions, caching cuts that part to 8% of the normal input price.

Context

Context window

DeepSeek V4 Pro 0423 accepts up to 1,024,000 tokens per request, roughly 768,000 English words or 1,536 pages. That budget is shared between your prompt and the reply, and a single reply is capped at 384,000 tokens.

Filling the whole window with one prompt costs about $0.98 at list price, so for repeated long-document work, retrieval (sending only the relevant parts) or prompt caching is usually much cheaper.
