# LLM Serverless Model Deprecation Notice

**Dear Developer,**

We are writing to inform you of upcoming changes to our **Serverless Endpoints**.

As part of our regular product lifecycle management to ensure high performance and resource optimization, we will be deprecating a list of specific models on **January 8, 2026 (UTC)**.

**You have 14 days** from today to update your integration before these models are removed from the **Serverless Endpoints**.

***

## Impacted Models & Recommended Alternatives

Please refer to the table below to see if your application is using any of the impacted models and find their recommended alternatives:

## What actions should you take?

To avoid service interruption, please choose one of the following options before the deadline:

### Option 1: Switch to the Alternative (Recommended)

Update your API code to point to the **Recommended Alternative** listed above.

These newer models offer improved reasoning capabilities, faster inference speeds, and better cost-efficiency.

### Option 2: Continue Using Legacy Models (via Dedicated Endpoints)

If your workflow strictly requires a specific version from the deprecated list (e.g., for reproducibility or specific fine-tuning), you can deploy it on your own private GPU resources using our **Dedicated Endpoints**.

* **Benefit:** This guarantees exclusive access, zero cold starts, and consistent performance.
* **Action:** [https://novita.ai/dedicated-endpoint](https://novita.ai/dedicated-endpoint)

## Timeline

* **Announcement Date:** December 25, 2025
* **End of Life (EOL):** January 8, 2026 (UTC)

**Note:** After the EOL date, API requests to any models in the **Deprecated** list via Serverless Endpoints will result in an error.

If you have any questions or need assistance with the migration, please reach out to us via our **Discord** community or submit a support ticket.
