Model Catalog Statuses
Models move through several statuses during their lifecycle on the PHOENIQS Model Service. This page explains each status and what it means for production use. The current models in each status are listed under Model Status.
#
Experimental models (Preview)
Models with the -preview suffix are experimental. You can use them to explore new capabilities and test application compatibility, but they are not intended for production. Preview models are not covered by the production SLA, have no guaranteed support period, and may be changed or withdrawn without the retirement notice provided for LTS models. See Preview Models.
#
Active models
Active models are available for production use. Models designated for Long-Term Support (LTS) come with a defined transition period if we decide to retire them. GLM 5 Flash and DeepSeek 4 Flash are currently designated as LTS. Check the Active Models page for current availability and API identifiers.
#
Scheduled for retirement
When we decide to retire a model, we list it under Scheduled for Retirement. This page provides the planned retirement date and, where available, recommended alternatives and migration guidance. A retirement announcement does not mean that access ends immediately. We may retire a model when a new major version becomes available or when usage remains consistently low.
#
Decommissioned models
The Decommissioned Models page records models that are no longer available in the standard catalog, along with their retirement dates. If your application still depends on one of these models, you can move to an active alternative or contact us about custom hosting.
