Based on the Capability Index, GPT 5 scores higher (81.8 vs 81.6). However, "better" depends on your use case — pricing, speed, context window, and specific capability needs all matter.
DeepSeek V4 Pro has a lower blended cost. GPT 5: $1.25 input / $10.00 output. DeepSeek V4 Pro: $0.43 input / $0.87 output.
DeepSeek V4 Pro has a larger context window: GPT 5 supports 400K tokens vs DeepSeek V4 Pro at 1M tokens.
GPT 5 supports vision/image input, but DeepSeek V4 Pro does not.
DeepSeek V4 Pro scores higher on SWE-bench Verified: GPT 5 resolves 74% vs DeepSeek V4 Pro at 78%.
Key differences: DeepSeek V4 Pro is significantly cheaper; only GPT 5 supports vision input. Compare full specs on this page.
If cost is your priority, choose the cheaper option. If you need the highest intelligence for complex tasks, pick the higher-scoring model. For long documents or codebases, choose the larger context window. You can try both GPT 5 and DeepSeek V4 Pro for free on idapt.app to see which performs better for your specific needs.
