Model API deprecation notice (DeepSeek v3.1, MiniMax M2.5)
The DeepSeek v3.1 and MiniMax M2.5 Model API(s) will be deprecated at 5pm PT on June 17th.
At that time the model ID(s) will become inactive and return an error for all requests. As open source models advance rapidly, we prioritize serving the highest quality models and deprecate models when stronger alternatives are available.
We recommend DeepSeek v4 Pro as an alternative. DeepSeek v4 Pro offers strong agentic and coding capabilities. Just swap in the new Model ID deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro prior to the deprecation date. If you’d like to continue using the previous weights, please contact us about a dedicated deployment of the model.
