   DeepSeek API adds web search and fetch at 5 yuan per 1,000 successful requests

   DeepSeek announced on October 18 that its API now supports web search and fetch, billed by request at 5 yuan per 1,000 successful requests, according to IT之家, 36Kr and other outlets. DeepSeek's API documentation says the Search API returns structured results for a query, while the Fetch API retrieves a single page and returns its content as Markdown; both are raw JSON APIs using the same bearer authentication as the DeepSeek API, with separate account-level QPS limits for Search and Fetch. Per the announcement, Search/Fetch calls made through server-side tools in DeepSeek Harness, Claude Code or Codex are currently not billed, with per-request charging starting at 00:00 Beijing time on November 1, 2026; failed requests, empty search results and timeouts are not billed.
