> Opecode’s 60 USD of deepseek usage is charged at much higher rates than what deepseek themselves charge at

Per the open code zen pricing page[1], it appears that the token prices are the same, but their cache is 10x more expensive?

Flash Opencode 0.14/0.28/0.028

Deepseek 0.14/0.28/0.0028

Pro Opencode 1.74/3.48/0.145

Deepseek 0.44/0.87/0.0036

For flash the input/output is the same, but the cache difference is big, you're paying 10x on >95% of your tokens.

For Pro, it's even worse, input/output is 4x and cache is 40x. The price different is really brutal. Yes you will still come out ahead by spending your first 10$/month on opencode go, but you will be saving a lot less than initially appears from their (60 USD for 10 USD pitch).
