Cheapest DeepSeek-R1-0528 inference API on the market & Pay as you go!
We offer the cheapest DeepSeek-R1-0528 inference API ($0.5 | $1) among competitive providers with the 2nd highest output speed (51 tps) & 99.9999% uptime, optimized for speed, stability, & operational flexibility
Additionally, our inference platform has 50+ latest off-the-shelf models (e.g. Qwen3, Llama4, Gemma 3, FLUX, StableDiffusion, & HunyuanVideo), covering LLMs, image, text, audio, and video processing. And as each new generation of leading-edge models goes live, we’ll again be among the first to make them available on our inference platform, just as we always do.
Everything at NetMind is built for users who need speed, stability, and control. You can stream tokens or request the full completion, and tweak temperature, top-p, max-tokens, or system messages on the fly. Our built-in function calling lets you trigger external tools directly from model outputs. You can also integrate any MCP (Model Context Protocol) server into your project.
Pay as You go
Our pricing is strictly pay-as-you-go, you can scale up when demand surges and pay nothing when it doesn’t.
NetMind Inference provides additional features including:
Independent Infrastructure
- Self-hosted inference engine, fully owned and operated. No part of the workload depends on third-party hosting
- Deployed in SOC-compliant environments, which enforces strict controls over data security, availability, and confidentiality
- No dependency on hyperscaler clouds, your workloads stay on independent infrastructure, freeing you from vendor lock-in and insulating operations from large-provider outages.
Advanced Features Built for Developers
- Function calling: the model can return structured JSON arguments that trigger your own APIs or microservices, automating downstream tasks.
- Dynamic routing and fallback support: your requests are automatically steered to the healthiest model or region based on live latency and error rates
- Token-level rate limiting and fine-grained control: set precise ceilings on the number of tokens each key can consume or generate, safeguarding budgets and preventing runaway usage.
- Unified API experience across models: one NetMind Key unlocks everything for you!

NetMind Elevate Programme
The NetMind Elevate Program provides AI startups with free and subsidized access to high-performance compute for inference. Each participant receives monthly inference credits and can apply for up to $10,000 in credits, awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. Elevate helps early-stage teams overcome infrastructure barriers during critical phases like deployment, scaling, and iteration. In addition to A100, H100, and L40 GPUs and API-level control, participants receive startup-focused AI consulting to guide architecture, optimization, and growth. The program’s founder-friendly model supports capital efficiency, making it ideal for teams building applied AI products that demand high-speed, cost-effective inference.
