Last checked 20 Oct 2026 against the official deprecation pages of each provider. Confirm there before you plan a migration. Google's Vertex AI rows come from its model versions page, which Google marks as no longer updated, so check the Gemini API rows first. Anthropic's dates apply to its own API; Amazon Bedrock and Google Cloud set their own.

Questions

What happens when a model is retired?

API requests to that model id start failing. Switch your code, agents and MCP clients to the replacement model before the date, and test the change first.

What is the difference between deprecated and retired?

Deprecated means the provider has announced an end date and recommends moving on; the model still works. Retired means it no longer answers requests.

How often is this page updated?

We re-check the official deprecation pages regularly and show the date of the last check at the top. Always confirm on the provider's page before planning a migration.
