Rate limits
Rate limits govern how many requests you can make. The following limits apply to every account, regardless of account status.
Free model limits
If you are using a free model (with an ID ending in -free, currently deepseek-v4-flash-free), the following limits apply:
| User type | Requests per day |
|---|---|
| All users | 50 |
The free allowance resets daily.
Once the free quota is exhausted, switch to the paid deepseek-v4-flash, which has no account-level rate limit.
