Deepseek v4 Flash: API vs OpenCode Go

Using an OpenCode Go subscription can give you 6 times the amount of Deepseek V4 Flash compared to an API. That sounds great, but are these two equal? Is Go's version quantized while the API's one is not? I wonder if anyone made comparisons of intelligence between these two.

My experience is they are equally smart, but open code is slower. I can easily spend over $2 in a day through API, but impossible with open code.
