Made a tiny app because I kept forgetting DeepSeek peak hours

The release and price cuts of DeepSeek 4.1 Flash got me back to using DeepSeek. Honestly, I'm pretty impressed — in my daily use, it feels surprisingly close to GPT-5.6 Sol. But once you use DeepSeek seriously, it's hard to ignore the peak/off-peak pricing. Simply scheduling tasks around off-peak hours can save around 50%. So I made DeepSeekBudget , a tiny menu bar / system tray app for macOS and Windows . 🔵 Blue = Off-Peak 🟠 Orange = Peak It also supports USD/CNY, English/Chinese, and custom time zones . Oh, and it was built with DeepSeek too. :) Hope someone finds it useful! github.com/FAAATQ/DeepSeekBudget
