DeepInfra listed $0.24 and $0.90, with a context of 163,840 tokens. One of those rows was not in a healthy status, so the live route may skip it.
Using OpenRouter as the proxy
A “DeepSeek proxy” in this search is an OpenAI-compatible URL in front of the model. OpenRouter is that URL: base https://openrouter.ai/api/v1, model deepseek/deepseek-chat-v3-0324. You are not configuring a private reverse proxy. You are sending the prompt to OpenRouter, which forwards it to one of the providers above.
V4 Flash is usually the better default for new code. Keep 0324 when an eval or a saved transcript was run on that snapshot and you need the same id.
