Pick Gemini for a finished assistant tied to Google apps and DeepSeek for a pay-per-token API. Gemini has a $0 plan, AI Plus at $4.99/month and AI Pro at $19.99/month. DeepSeek's documented offer is its API: deepseek-flash starts at $0.15 per 1M input tokens off-peak. We could not verify the DeepSeek chat app's price, free status or privacy terms.
We based this comparison on our DeepSeek profile verified 2026-10-05 and our Google Gemini profile verified 2026-09-30, both built from official vendor pages; it uses no third-party benchmarks and no vendor paid for placement.
Gemini is the better-documented choice for people: a $0 plan, paid tiers from $4.99/month, web, desktop and mobile apps, and a published privacy policy with retention periods. DeepSeek's verified strength is its API, billed per 1M tokens with half-price off-peak hours and OpenAI- or Anthropic-format endpoints. We could not verify the DeepSeek chat app's price, free status or privacy terms, so a chat-to-chat comparison is incomplete. Developers who want cheap tokens should look at DeepSeek; anyone who lives in Gmail and Drive should look at Gemini.
Based on our DeepSeek profile verified 2026-10-05 and Google Gemini profile verified 2026-09-30; the DeepSeek chat app could not be checked because the site blocked automated access, and no benchmark was run.

For API tokens, DeepSeek lists deepseek-flash at $0.30 input and $1.20 output per 1M tokens at peak, half that off-peak. Gemini 3.8 Flash is listed at $0.75 input and $3.75 output through 2026-12-31, then $1.50 and $7.50 from 2027-01-01. The two prices are not for identical models or caching terms, so treat the gap as a guide. Gemini also has a free API tier and a $0 app plan; DeepSeek's chat price is unconfirmed.
Unconfirmed for DeepSeek: the chat site blocked our automated check, so its free status and plans are unverified. Gemini has a documented Free plan at $0 with a Google Account, though it caps usage and limits context to 32k tokens.
Gemini documents it: personal accounts with Keep Activity on are used for training and some chats are read by human reviewers, while temporary chats and Keep Activity off are not used. Enterprise customer data is not used to train. DeepSeek's training and retention terms were not verified, so check its policy before sharing sensitive data.
Both list 1M tokens at the top end. DeepSeek's API offers 1M context with 384K max output on both models. Gemini gives 1M tokens on Google AI Pro and Ultra, but the Free plan is 32k tokens.
Yes. DeepSeek documents https://api.deepseek.com for the OpenAI format and https://api.deepseek.com/anthropic for the Anthropic format. Gemini's profile does not list a compatible endpoint for those clients, so we mark that as not confirmed.
