Feature Request: Add DeepSeek as a provider to improve accessibility for users in China
Hi team,
Many users in mainland China find it difficult to obtain API keys or maintain stable access to Claude, OpenAI (ChatGPT), and Google Gemini due to regional restrictions and payment limitations.
Your project already supports ChatGPT, Claude, and Google Gemini, which is great, but these services are often hard to reach from China.
Proposal
Please add DeepSeek as an additional provider to improve accessibility for Chinese users.
Why DeepSeek
DeepSeek offers an OpenAI‑compatible API, so integration should be straightforward with existing OpenAI client code or minimal adapter changes. 7 DeepSeek provides strong coding and general reasoning capabilities (e.g., DeepSeek‑Coder‑V2 with up to 128K context), and models are openly available. Similar open‑source apps adopt a multi‑provider architecture and list DeepSeek among supported providers, demonstrating feasibility and ecosystem alignment.
Benefits
Provide an accessible, affordable alternative for users in China, reducing friction to use the app. Diversify providers to reduce vendor lock‑in and improve service resilience. Implementation hint
Add “DeepSeek” to the provider list using its OpenAI‑compatible endpoint and API key configuration; only minimal integration work should be required. Thanks for considering this request!
this could be configured, https://docs.bytebot.ai/deployment/litellm
我还没试过deepseek，目前试了中转的API 平台，改下 api_base 是可以的
