The short version
- Only Deep Code has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Deep Code model choice is narrow. Bring your own key covers DeepSeek-V4-Pro and Flash plus the GLM and Mimo coding plans, and no frontier model from OpenAI, Anthropic or Google.; Quantexa pricing is never published and lands in the seven figure range annually for a tier one deployment, so it is out of reach for mid-sized institutions no matter how well the analytics would fit.
- They diverge on capability: Deep Code covers DeepSeek-backed agent, Quantexa covers Entity resolution.
- Prices and features above were last checked on 15 September 2026.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Deep Code
- Model choice is narrow. Bring your own key covers DeepSeek-V4-Pro and Flash plus the GLM and Mimo coding plans, and no frontier model from OpenAI, Anthropic or Google.
- The Pro tier caps included usage at 100 Pro Credits per day rather than offering an unmetered plan.
- Bring your own key is a paid feature, so the free tier cannot be pointed at your own DeepSeek account.
- Desktop only, with no editor extension, web version or team seat management as of September 2026.
- A small, young vendor with no independent review coverage yet, so there is nothing outside the vendor's own site to corroborate the cost claim.
Quantexa
- Pricing is never published and lands in the seven figure range annually for a tier one deployment, so it is out of reach for mid-sized institutions no matter how well the analytics would fit.
- Output quality is bounded by input data quality, and organisations without governed customer data spend the first phase of the programme fixing feeds rather than catching criminals.
- Implementation typically requires a systems integrator and runs into quarters rather than weeks, so the business case has to survive a long period with no operational benefit.
- The platform augments rather than replaces existing transaction monitoring, so you keep paying for the incumbent system alongside it and total compliance technology spend rises before it falls.
- Skills are scarce; the platform needs people who understand both Spark scale data engineering and financial crime typologies, and those people are hard to recruit and easy to lose.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Deep Code: Which models does Deep Code run on?
DeepSeek V4 family models, with the vendor's headline built around DeepSeek V4.1. The free tier's included credits run on DeepSeek-V4-Flash. Paid users bringing their own key can also use DeepSeek-V4-Pro, the GLM Coding Plan and the Mimo Coding Plan.
SourceQuantexa: Does Quantexa replace our transaction monitoring system?
No. It usually sits alongside it, adding network context to the alerts that system generates and to investigations.
Deep Code: What does Deep Code cost?
There are two tiers. Free is $0 per month and includes session management, the file explorer, snippets, voice input and weekly free credits on DeepSeek-V4-Flash. Pro is $5 per month and adds 100 daily Pro Credits plus bring-your-own-key support for multiple models.
SourceQuantexa: Where does our data go?
Into your own cloud tenancy in the normal deployment model. Quantexa does not require you to send customer data to a shared multi-tenant service.
Deep Code: Do I need my own API key to use it?
No. The free tier includes weekly credits and needs no credit card, so the app works without a key. Bring your own key is available on the $5 per month Pro tier and covers DeepSeek-V4-Pro, DeepSeek-V4-Flash, the GLM Coding Plan and the Mimo Coding Plan.
SourceQuantexa: How is it priced?
Not publicly. Expect an annual subscription scaled by data volume and number of use cases, plus separate implementation cost.
Deep Code: Which operating systems does it run on?
Windows, macOS and Linux. It is a desktop application rather than an editor extension, so it runs alongside whatever editor you already use.
SourceDeep Code: Is the 95 percent cheaper claim independently verified?
No. It is the vendor's own figure, based on DeepSeek token pricing against frontier model pricing. Actual savings depend on which model you compare against and how much of your usage falls inside the included credits.
