[**AI Gateway**](https://developers.cloudflare.com/ai-gateway/) now supports [**DeepSeek**](https://developers.cloudflare.com/ai-gateway/usage/providers/deepseek/), including their cutting-edge DeepSeek-V3 model. With this addition, you have even more flexibility to manage and optimize your AI workloads using AI Gateway. Whether you're leveraging DeepSeek or other providers, like OpenAI, Anthropic, or [Workers AI](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers-ai/), AI Gateway empowers you to:

* **Monitor**: Gain actionable insights with analytics and logs.
* **Control**: Implement caching, rate limiting, and fallbacks.
* **Optimize**: Improve performance with feedback and evaluations.

To get started, simply update the base URL of your DeepSeek API calls to route through AI Gateway. Here's how you can send a request using cURL:

Example fetch request

```

curl https://gateway.ai.cloudflare.com/v1/{account_id}/{gateway_id}/deepseek/chat/completions \

 --header 'content-type: application/json' \

 --header 'Authorization: Bearer DEEPSEEK_TOKEN' \

 --data '{

    "model": "deepseek-chat",

    "messages": [

        {

            "role": "user",

            "content": "What is Cloudflare?"

        }

    ]

}'


```
