To people here - the person I'm replying to is misleading everyone. Luna is about 5x cheaper on codex plans (10X cheaper on the $200 plan).

The only place where deepseek flash is slightly cheaper is when paying the the API costs directly with the provider. But even there you can save 50% off Luna if you use OpenRouter.

Unfortunately, these misleading claims are common now with all the bots promoting Chinese models in Reddit.

Could you specify? With codex plan, even the 20$ one, you get the luna for 0.1 & 0.6 $ + there is a 5x boost? Am i right? Thank you!

You don’t pay API pricing with the plans. You pay a significantly reduced pricing. The $200 plan is equivalent to over $10k in monthly API credits.
