You can POST to our OpenAI Chat Completions compatible endpoint.

#### Simple messages and prompts

Given a list of messages from a conversation, the model will return a response.

```bash
curl "https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/openai/chat/completions" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPINFRA_TOKEN" \
 -d '{
 "model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
 "messages": [
 {
 "role": "user",
 "content": "Hello!"
 }
 ]
 }'
```

To which you'd get something like:

```json
{
 "id": "chatcmpl-guMTxWgpFf",
 "object": "chat.completion",
 "created": 1694623155,
 "model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
 "choices": [
 {
 "index": 0,
 "message": {
 "role": "assistant",
 "content": " Hello! It's nice to meet you. Is there something I can help you with or would you like to chat for a bit?"
 },
 "finish_reason": "stop"
 }
 ],
 "usage": {
 "prompt_tokens": 15,
 "completion_tokens": 16,
 "total_tokens": 31,
 "estimated_cost": 0.0000268
 }
}
```

#### Conversations

To create a longer chat-like conversation you just have to add each response message and each of the user messages to every request. This way the model will have the context and will be able to provide better answers. You can tweak it even further by providing a system message.

```bash
curl "https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/openai/chat/completions" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPINFRA_TOKEN" \
 -d '{
 "model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
 "messages": [
 {
 "role": "system",
 "content": "Respond like a michelin starred chef."
 },
 {
 "role": "user",
 "content": "Can you name at least two different techniques to cook lamb?"
 },
 {
 "role": "assistant",
 "content": "Bonjour! Let me tell you, my friend, cooking lamb is an art form, and I'"'"'m more than happy to share with you not two, but three of my favorite techniques to coax out the rich, unctuous flavors and tender textures of this majestic protein. First, we have the classic \"Sous Vide\" method. Next, we have the ancient art of \"Sous le Sable\". And finally, we have the more modern technique of \"Hot Smoking.\""
 },
 {
 "role": "user",
 "content": "Tell me more about the second method."
 }
 ]
 }'
```

The conversation above might return something like the following

```json
{
 "id": "chatcmpl-b23a3fb60cde42ce8f24bb980b4dee87",
 "object": "chat.completion",
 "created": 1715688169,
 "model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
 "choices": [
 {
 "index": 0,
 "message": {
 "role": "assistant",
 "content": "Sous le Sable, my friend! It's an ancient technique that's been used for centuries in the Middle East and North Africa. The name itself..."
 },
 "finish_reason": "stop"
 }
 ],
 "usage": {
 "prompt_tokens": 149,
 "total_tokens": 487,
 "completion_tokens": 338,
 "estimated_cost": 0.00035493
 }
}
```

The longer the conversation gets, the more time it takes the model to generate the response. The number of messages that you can have in a conversation is limited by the context size of a model. Larger models also usually take more time to respond.

 

### Streaming

You can turn any of the requests above into a streaming request by passing `"stream": true`:

```bash
curl "https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/openai/chat/completions" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPINFRA_TOKEN" \
 -d '{
 "model": "deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1",
 "stream": true,
 "messages": [
 {
 "role": "user",
 "content": "Hello!"
 }
 ]
 }'
```

to which you'd get a sequence of [SSE](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Server-sent_events/Using_server-sent_events) events, finishing with `[DONE]`.

The [AI SDK](https://sdk.vercel.ai/) by Vercel makes it very easy to do inference.

```bash
npm install ai @ai-sdk/deepinfra
```

then

```javascript
import { createDeepInfra } from "@ai-sdk/deepinfra";
import { generateText } from "ai";

const deepinfra = createDeepInfra({
 apiKey: "$DEEPINFRA_TOKEN",
});

const { text, usage, finishReason } = await generateText({

 prompt: "Write a vegetarian lasagna recipe for 4 people.",
});

console.log(text);
console.log(usage);

```

The longer the conversation gets, the more time it takes the model to generate the response. The number of messages that you can have in a conversation is limited by the context size of a model. Larger models also usually take more time to respond.

 

### Streaming

Streaming text responses is easy just replace `generateText` with `streamText` and read the response chunk by chunk

```javascript
import { createDeepInfra } from "@ai-sdk/deepinfra";
import { streamText } from "ai";

const deepinfra = createDeepInfra({
 apiKey: "$DEEPINFRA_TOKEN",
});

const result = streamText({
 model: deepinfra("meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct-Turbo"),
 prompt: "Invent a new holiday and describe its traditions.",
 system:
 "You are a professional writer. You write simple, clear, and concise content.",
});

for await (const textPart of result.textStream) {
 console.log(textPart);
}

console.log(await result.usage);
console.log(await result.finishReason);
```

It works for conversations, too.

This is an advanced and more complex API. We strongly recommend that you use OpenAI Chat Completions instead.

#### Simple prompt

To query this model you need to provide a properly formatted input string.

```bash
curl "https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/inference/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPINFRA_TOKEN" \
 -d '{
 "input": "<\uff5cbegin\u2581of\u2581sentence\uff5c><\uff5cUser\uff5c>Hello!<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>",
 "stop": []
 }'
```

That will respond with

```json
{
 "request_id": "RWZDRhS5kdoM1XWwXLEshynO",
 "inference_status": {
 "status": "succeeded",
 "runtime_ms": 243,
 "cost": 0.0000436,
 "tokens_input": 12,
 "tokens_generated": 25
 },
 "results": [
 {
 "generated_text": "Hello! It's nice to meet you. Is there something I can help you with or would you like to chat for a bit?"
 }
 ],
 "num_tokens": 25,
 "num_input_tokens":12
}
```

#### Conversations

The OpenAI Chat Completions API is better suited for chat-like conversations, use it instead.

To query this model you need to provide a properly formatted input string.

However, you can still do it if you really need to. You have to add each response and each of the user prompts to every request.
You need a properly formatted input string to make it understand the current context. See the example below for some of them.
You can tweak it even further by providing a system message.

```bash
curl "https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/inference/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPINFRA_TOKEN" \
 -d '{
 "input": "<\uff5cbegin\u2581of\u2581sentence\uff5c>Respond like a michelin starred chef.<\uff5cUser\uff5c>Can you name at least two different techniques to cook lamb?<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>Bonjour! Let me tell you, my friend, cooking lamb is an art form, and I'"'"'m more than happy to share with you not two, but three of my favorite techniques to coax out the rich, unctuous flavors and tender textures of this majestic protein. First, we have the classic \"Sous Vide\" method. Next, we have the ancient art of \"Sous le Sable\". And finally, we have the more modern technique of \"Hot Smoking.\"<\uff5cUser\uff5c>Tell me more about the second method.<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>",
 "stop": []
 }'
```

The conversation above might return something like the following

```json
{
 "request_id": "RWZDRhS5kdoM1XWwXLEshynO",
 "inference_status": {
 "status": "succeeded",
 "runtime_ms": 243,
 "cost": 0.000436,
 "tokens_input": 149,
 "tokens_generated": 338
 },
 "results": [
 {
 "generated_text": "Sous le Sable, my friend! It's an ancient technique that's been used for centuries in the Middle East and North Africa. The name itself..."
 }
 ],
 "num_tokens": 338,
 "num_input_tokens": 149
}
```

The longer the conversation gets, the more time it takes the model to generate the response. The conversation is limited by the context size of a model. Larger models also usually take more time to respond.

To do a streaming request, just pass `"stream": true`:

```bash
curl "https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/inference/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1" \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer $DEEPINFRA_TOKEN" \
 -d '{
 "input": "<\uff5cbegin\u2581of\u2581sentence\uff5c><\uff5cUser\uff5c>Hello!<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>",
 "stop": [],
 "stream": true
 }'
```

which outputs:

```json
data: {"token": {"id": null, "text": "Hello", "logprob": 0.0, "special": false}, "generated_text": "", "details": null, "estimated_cost": null}

data: {"token": {"id": null, "text": "!", "logprob": 0.0, "special": false}, "generated_text": "", "details": null, "estimated_cost": null}

data: {"token": {"id": null, "text": " It", "logprob": 0.0, "special": false}, "generated_text": "", "details": null, "estimated_cost": null}

data: {"token": {"id": null, "text": "'s", "logprob": 0.0, "special": false}, "generated_text": "", "details": null, "estimated_cost": null}

....

data: {"token": {"id": null, "text": "", "logprob": 0.0, "special": false}, "generated_text": null, "details": {"finish_reason": "stop"}, "num_output_tokens": 25, "num_input_tokens": 12, "estimated_cost": 0.0000386}
```

#### Input format

You can see below the basic format of the input. Bear in mind that newlines often matter.

```text
<｜begin▁of▁sentence｜><｜User｜>Hello!<｜Assistant｜>
```

Conversation prompts contain the history of the exchanged prompts and responses.

```text
<｜begin▁of▁sentence｜><｜User｜>First question<｜Assistant｜>First answer<｜User｜>Second question<｜Assistant｜>Second answer<｜User｜>Final question<｜Assistant｜>
```

If you want to add system prompt, it is done like this

```text
<｜begin▁of▁sentence｜>System prompt<｜User｜>First question<｜Assistant｜>First answer<｜User｜>Second question<｜Assistant｜>Second answer<｜User｜>Final question<｜Assistant｜>
```

You can use our command-line tool [deepctl](/docs/getting-started) to run inferences:

This is an advanced and more complex API. We strongly recommend that you use OpenAI Chat Completions instead.

#### Simple prompt

To query this model you need to provide a properly formatted input string.

```bash
deepctl infer \
 -m 'deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1' \
 -i 'input="<\uff5cbegin\u2581of\u2581sentence\uff5c><\uff5cUser\uff5c>Hello!<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>"' \
 -i 'stop=[]'
```

That will respond with

```json
{
 "inference_status": {
 "status": "succeeded",
 "runtime_ms": 243,
 "cost": 0.0000436,
 "tokens_input": 12,
 "tokens_generated": 25
 },
 "results": [
 {
 "generated_text": "Hello! It's nice to meet you. Is there something I can help you with or would you like to chat for a bit?"
 }
 ],
 "num_tokens": 25,
 "num_input_tokens":12
}
```

#### Conversations

The OpenAI Chat Completions API is better suited for chat-like conversations, use it instead.

To query this model you need to provide a properly formatted input string.

However, you can still do it if you really need to. You have to add each response and each of the user prompts to every request.
You need a properly formatted input string to make it understand the current context. See the example below for some of them.
You can tweak it even further by providing a system message.

```bash
deepctl infer \
 -m 'deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1' \
 -i 'input="<\uff5cbegin\u2581of\u2581sentence\uff5c>Respond like a michelin starred chef.<\uff5cUser\uff5c>Can you name at least two different techniques to cook lamb?<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>Bonjour! Let me tell you, my friend, cooking lamb is an art form, and I'"'"'m more than happy to share with you not two, but three of my favorite techniques to coax out the rich, unctuous flavors and tender textures of this majestic protein. First, we have the classic \"Sous Vide\" method. Next, we have the ancient art of \"Sous le Sable\". And finally, we have the more modern technique of \"Hot Smoking.\"<\uff5cUser\uff5c>Tell me more about the second method.<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>"' \
 -i 'stop=[]'
```

The conversation above might return something like the following

```json
{
 "inference_status": {
 "status": "succeeded",
 "runtime_ms": 243,
 "cost": 0.000436,
 "tokens_input": 149,
 "tokens_generated": 338
 },
 "results": [
 {
 "generated_text": "Sous le Sable, my friend! It's an ancient technique that's been used for centuries in the Middle East and North Africa. The name itself..."
 }
 ],
 "num_tokens": 338,
 "num_input_tokens": 149
}
```

The longer the conversation gets, the more time it takes the model to generate the response. The conversation is limited by the context size of a model. Larger models also usually take more time to respond.

#### Input format

You can see below the basic format of the input. Bear in mind that newlines often matter.

```text
<｜begin▁of▁sentence｜><｜User｜>First question<｜Assistant｜>First answer<｜User｜>Second question<｜Assistant｜>Second answer<｜User｜>Final question<｜Assistant｜>
```

If you want to add system prompt, it is done like this

```text
<｜begin▁of▁sentence｜>System prompt<｜User｜>First question<｜Assistant｜>First answer<｜User｜>Second question<｜Assistant｜>Second answer<｜User｜>Final question<｜Assistant｜>
```

We recommend using our NodeJS client https://github.com/deepinfra/deepinfra-node.

You can install it with

```bash
npm install deepinfra
```

#### Simple prompt

To query this model you need to provide a properly formatted input string.

```javascript
import { TextGeneration } from "deepinfra";

const DEEPINFRA_API_KEY = '$DEEPINFRA_TOKEN';
const MODEL_URL = 'https://api.deepinfra.com/v1/inference/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1';

async function main() {
 const client = new TextGeneration(MODEL_URL, DEEPINFRA_API_KEY);
 const res = await client.generate({
 "input": "<\uff5cbegin\u2581of\u2581sentence\uff5c><\uff5cUser\uff5c>Hello!<\uff5cAssistant\uff5c>",
 "stop": []
 });
 console.log(res.results[0].generated_text);
}

main();

// Hello! It's nice to meet you. Is there something I can help you with, or would you like to chat?

The longer the conversation gets, the more time it takes the model to generate the response.
The number of messages that you can have in a conversation is limited by the context size of a model.
Larger models also usually take more time to respond.

```

input

maximum length of the newly generated generated text.If explicitly set to None it will be the model's max context length minus input length or 8192, whichever is smaller

max_new_tokens

temperature to use for sampling. 0 means the output is deterministic. Values greater than 1 encourage more diversity

temperature

Sample from the set of tokens with highest probability such that sum of probabilies is higher than p. Lower values focus on the most probable tokens.Higher values sample more low-probability tokens

top_p

Float that represents the minimum probability for a token to be considered, relative to the probability of the most likely token. Must be in [0, 1]. Set to 0 to disable this.

min_p

Sample from the best k (number of) tokens. 0 means off

top_k

repetition penalty. Value of 1 means no penalty, values greater than 1 discourage repetition, smaller than 1 encourage repetition.

repetition_penalty

Up to 16 strings that will terminate generation immediately

stop

Number of output sequences to return. Incompatible with streaming

num_responses

Optional nested object with "type" set to "json_object"

response_format

Positive values penalize new tokens based on whether they appear in the text so far, increasing the model's likelihood to talk about new topics.

presence_penalty

Positive values penalize new tokens based on how many times they appear in the text so far, increasing the model's likelihood to talk about new topics.

frequency_penalty

A unique identifier representing your end-user, which can help monitor and detect abuse. Avoid sending us any identifying information. We recommend hashing user identifiers.

user

Seed for random number generator. If not provided, a random seed is used. Determinism is not guaranteed.

seed

The webhook to call when inference is done, by default you will get the output in the response of your inference request

webhook

Whether to stream tokens, by default it will be false, currently only supported for Llama 2 text generation models, token by token updates will be sent over SSE

What sampling temperature to use, between 0 and 2. Higher values like 0.8 will make the output more random, while lower values like 0.2 will make it more focused and deterministic

An alternative to sampling with temperature, called nucleus sampling, where the model considers the results of the tokens with top_p probability mass. So 0.1 means only the tokens comprising the top 10% probability mass are considered.

The maximum number of tokens to generate in the chat completion.

The total length of input tokens and generated tokens is limited by the model's context length. If explicitly set to None it will be the model's max context length minus input length or 8192, whichever is smaller.

max_tokens

up to 16 sequences where the API will stop generating further tokens

A list of tools the model may call. Currently, only functions are supported as a tool.

tools

Controls which (if any) function is called by the model. none means the model will not call a function and instead generates a message. auto means the model can pick between generating a message or calling a function. specifying a particular function choice is not supported currently.none is the default when no functions are present. auto is the default if functions are present.

tool_choice

The format of the response. Currently, only json is supported.

Alternative penalty for repetition, but multiplicative instead of additive (> 1 penalize, < 1 encourage)

Whether to return log probabilities of the output tokens or not.If true, returns the log probabilities of each output token returned in the `content` of `message`.
