  1. …pricing (*), the total daily revenue would be $562,027, with a cost profit margin of 545%. https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... With DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash, the memory requirements for the KV cache have been reduced…
  2. …their models for their own hardware. For DeepSeek V3, they claimed a cost profit margin of 545%: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... At the time, open frameworks were not anywhere close to achieving that number.…

  3. …pricing can be quite profitable, e.g. published here for DeepSeek V3/R1 with 545% profitability: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20...
  4. …compute nodes for training during off-peak hours, as described in their DeepSeek v3 article: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... But I agree that the main driver is that they are really good at optimizing. They…
  5. …to compute. DeepSeek published their math for serving the V3/R1 models. They were 535% profitable: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20...

  6. …) could run at almost exactly 200 % profit. If you take DeepSeek's numbers for DeepSeek-V3 ( https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... ) and plug in ~3333 tps/GPU for DeepSeek-V4-Pro (…

  7. …cost in certain areas. This is literally them documenting the cost-profit ratio theoretical at 500% https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... >The above statistics include all user requests from web, APP, and API. If…
  8. …is a bit bigger, but they'd have to be insanely incompetent to not make a profit on inference. [1] https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20...

  9. …until their models were obsolete. But it's impossible for everyone to go bankrupt. [1] https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20...
  10. …If not then you might be interested to see that Deepseek has released there inference costs here: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... If they are losing money it's because they have a free app they are…
  11. Lots of sources, and you can do the math yourself. Here's a few good ones: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... (suggests Deepseek is making 80% raw margin on inference) https://www.snellman.net/blog/archive/2025-…
  12. …market would suggest[2] [1]: https://martinalderson.com/posts/are-openai-and-anthropic-re... , https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... [2]: https://www.snellman.net/blog/archive/2025-06-02-llms-are-ch...
  13. …a setup tuned for your model(s). I think the most open study on this one is from the DeepSeek team: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... For others, I think the picture is different. When we ran benchmarks on…
  14. …Given the analysis is based on R1, Deepseek's actual in-production numbers seem highly relevant: https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... (But yes, they claim 80% margins on the compute in that article.) > When…
  15. Thanks for sharing! It's worthwhile to note that https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... shows cost vs. theoretical income . They don't show 80% gross margins and there's probably a reason they don't share their…

  17. https://github.com/deepseek-ai/open-infra-index/blob/main/20... Statistics of DeepSeek's Online Service All DeepSeek-V3/R1 inference services are served on H800 GPUs with precision consistent with training. Specifically, matrix…
