ParametersThe learned values that shape how a model responds. B means billion and T means trillion. For mixture-of-experts models, the total count is larger than the number active for each token. Parameter count alone does not measure quality. | 16B/236B | 675B |
Context windowHow much information the model can work with in one request, measured in tokens — pieces of words or other data. This includes your question, attachments, conversation and reply. Limits can vary by model variant and provider. | 128k | 256k |
| API pricingUSD per 1M tokens · lower wins | ||
Input priceWhat you pay for everything you send the model — your question, plus any documents or earlier conversation you include with it. | — | $0.50 |
Output priceWhat you pay for the text the model writes back. It is normally the dearer half: producing an answer costs more than reading one. | — | $1.50 |
Cheapest inputLowest input rate across every provider on OpenRouter, the lab included. The cheapest endpoint may run a quantised build or a shorter context — see "Available from" on the model page. | — | $0.50Mistral |
Cheapest outputLowest output rate across every provider on OpenRouter, the lab included. May come from a different provider than the cheapest input. | — | $1.50Mistral |

BullshitBench v2Nonsense detection — Given a confidently-worded but nonsensical prompt, does the AI spot that it makes no sense and push back — instead of playing along and inventing an answer? The score is how often it clearly called out the nonsense. Higher is better. | — | 2% |

DeepSeek Coder V2 and Mistral Large 3 don't publish scores on any of the same benchmarks, so there's no direct head-to-head comparison. Only Mistral Large 3 has a verified first-party API price: $0.50 per million input tokens and $1.50 per million output tokens. No pay-as-you-go API rate is tracked for DeepSeek Coder V2. DeepSeek Coder V2 shipped 533 days before Mistral Large 3, so benchmark comparisons should account for the intervening progress.
DeepSeek Coder V2 has 16B/236B parameters, while Mistral Large 3 has 675B. Context windows are 128k (DeepSeek Coder V2) vs 256k (Mistral Large 3).
