DeepSeek Adds Models and User Balance API References
Checked on July 2, 2026: DeepSeek's official API reference documents a `GET /models` endpoint that currently examples only `deepseek-v4-flash` and `deepseek-v4-pro`, plus a `GET /user/balance` endpoint with `is_available`, currency, granted balance, and topped-up balance fields for direct budget checks.
What we verified on July 2, 2026
- DeepSeek's official
GET /modelsreference says the endpoint lists currently available models and its example response currently showsdeepseek-v4-flashanddeepseek-v4-proowned bydeepseek. - The same page tells readers to check Models & Pricing for supported models, which means the model-list endpoint is a runtime discovery surface, while the pricing page remains the public contract for rates and support framing.
- DeepSeek's official
GET /user/balancereference exposes a direct account-budget check withis_availableplusbalance_infosentries forcurrency,total_balance,granted_balance, andtopped_up_balance. - The balance example currently documents
CNYandUSDas the possible currency values, which matters for teams reconciling promotional credits versus paid top-ups. - This is developer-account infrastructure guidance, not storefront inventory guidance: it does not create any new
/pricingcard, stock promise, or plan migration in this repo.
