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.
Wasabi
- 90-day minimum storage duration with no option to delete before full period without penalty
- Significantly smaller global footprint than AWS with only 16 regions, resulting in higher latency for users in underserved regions
- Performance can degrade with high-volume transactions requiring throughput management strategies
- Hot storage only, no cold/archival storage tier for long-term data at lower cost
- Support responsiveness gaps with teams experiencing multi-day waits for critical issue resolution

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.
SourceWasabi: What is Wasabi's pricing structure?
Wasabi offers pay-as-you-go pricing at $7.99 per TB per month as of July 2026, with no egress or API request fees. Reserved capacity plans are available for multi-year terms with volume discounts.
SourceDeep 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.
SourceWasabi: Does Wasabi charge for data downloads or API calls?
No. Wasabi includes zero egress fees and zero API request fees, which is a major cost advantage over AWS S3. Customers can plan their budget to the penny without worrying about surprise data transfer charges.
SourceDeep 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.
SourceWasabi: Is there a minimum storage duration requirement?
Yes. Wasabi enforces a 90-day minimum storage term. Users who delete data before 90 days are still charged for the full 90-day period.
SourceDeep 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.
SourceWasabi: Is Wasabi S3-compatible?
Yes. Wasabi Hot Cloud Storage is fully S3-compatible, meaning organizations can integrate it into existing workflows without rewriting application code used with AWS S3.
Deep 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.
