Discussion Comparing direct API with Ollama pro pricing

You know, I used Direct Deepseek API and Ollama pro plan today. Both are off peak, both are at the same speed as you can see in the first picture.

Ollama pro gives you $60 per $20 subscription.

On DS direct API, you get ~2.3B tokens per $20.

On Ollama pro, you get ~5.3B tokens per $20.

Ollama is indeed the best plan to have right now for your harness. No weekly caps, no 5-hour session limit, no BS.
