Not only Deepseek, other providers such as Xiaomi MiMo are excellent as well and offer fast token modes and other perks.

Its too bad my boss views China as the big evil country so he wont ever make the switch to Deepseek but then proceeds to throw all our data to US companies like OpenAI or Anthropic...
There are US providers for DeepSeek v4, MiMo 2.5 and GLM 5.1.
But those US providers AREN'T CHEAP like the Chinese ones are (for the big, actually useful ones, like 1.6T+ models)
Does the location help though, if the company isn't trusted? I can't even visit the webpages of these companies from my enterprise network
I'm speaking of third-party providers. They just host those open models themselves on their hardware.
And even if so, I'll try to get rid of any US affiliations within my workplace, so US providers are not an option either.
There are also EU providers for those models, e. g. Tensorix.
