I tried it on a non trivial, but also well documented and self contained task. It did amazingly well. I used deepseek v4 pro via deepseek platform. The model is very fast and also it is super cheap. I burned only 0.06 USD (I reckon how the same task would have cost me had I used e.g., amp).

PS. mentioning amp because i used to use it and I pay directly for token. I topped up 5 usd so I will be going to use it and see how far can it take me. But my impression so far is even when model subsidization is done, those open source models are quite viable alternatives.

It's close to Opus 4.5 for me
