Model Retirement Radar

Subscribe to the AI models and agents you depend on and get alerted the day they change

Problem

One developer had a product feature down for 48 hours because Anthropic retired Claude 3 Haiku, and in another case an API parameter silently started returning errors. Models and agents change every week across many vendors; manually watching a dozen changelogs does not scale, and damage is already done by the time users report bugs.

Solution

Users select the models, agents, and API parameters they actually use. The product aggregates vendor changelogs, deprecation notices, and status pages into one timeline, detects retirements, deprecations, and parameter changes, matches them to subscriptions, and pushes alerts via email, Slack, or webhook with suggested replacements and a migration checklist.

Users

Small teams and indie developers building products on multiple model APIs, especially those embedding models in core features

MVP

Subscription picker by vendor and model name; changelog crawling and dedupe; classification of key changes (retirement, deprecation, parameter drift); email and webhook alerts on matches; detail page with replacement model comparison

Revenue

Tiered subscription by number of monitored models (free for 3, unlimited paid); team plan adds Slack and multi-member access; sponsored slots for new model launches

Why now

Model churn is at an all-time high and deprecation notices are scattered and easy to miss; no vendor has incentive to build a cross-vendor alerting layer; crawling and matching is simple enough for a solo developer to ship in weeks
