Heads up. Only calls through server-side tools in DeepSeek Harness, Claude Code and Codex are free. Direct Search and Fetch API calls already cost $0.75 per 1,000 calls per endpoint. This is a free usage window, not a credit grant, and model tokens are billed separately. Needs a DeepSeek API account and key.

DeepSeek launched its Search and Fetch API this week. $0.75 per 1,000 calls. Free until October 31.

Good for the market. More competition at the data layer means pricing pressure across the board. [media]
