kluster.ai, a decentralized AI platform, has made history as the first to host DeepSeek-R1, an AI model that matches OpenAI’s performance in logic, mathematics, and code generation. The model is priced at just $7 per million tokens, offering a cost-effective alternative to traditional AI solutions.
“We’re thrilled to make DeepSeek-R1 available at such an affordable price, empowering developers rather than just enterprise budgets,” said Julio Viera, CEO and founder of kluster.ai. “At $7 per million tokens, teams can access GPT-4-like AI without compromising on speed or control. This is how we democratize AI access.”
Key Features of DeepSeek-R1:
- Affordable Access: The $7/million tokens pricing ensures that even small teams can leverage the capabilities of GPT-4-level AI without breaking the bank.
- Step-by-Step Reasoning Outputs: Unlike many models, DeepSeek-R1 provides step-by-step reasoning outputs, allowing developers to debug and optimize model decisions in real-time. This enhances the ability to troubleshoot and fine-tune AI responses, making it a powerful tool for developers.
- Decentralized Infrastructure: Built on a decentralized infrastructure, kluster.ai ensures data encryption and provides users with the freedom to avoid vendor lock-in, which is a common concern with traditional AI services.
kluster.ai’s Vision for the Future:
“DeepSeek-R1 isn’t just more affordable—it’s designed with builders in mind,” said Jacob Rettig, COO of kluster.ai. “We focus on providing developers with the tools they need to deploy and scale AI on their own terms, with full visibility into costs and performance.”
To make DeepSeek-R1 even more accessible, kluster.ai will soon introduce features like fine-tuning and multi-region deployment, allowing for even more customization and performance improvements. New users can also get started with $5 in free credits to test out the platform.
