# Anthropic Claude 1.1 — deprecation status

> Yes — Claude 1.1 is retired. Anthropic deprecated it on September 4, 2024 and shut it down on November 6, 2024; API requests to it now fail. The recommended replacement is Claude Haiku 4.5.

A mid-2023 refresh of the original Claude, largely a reliability and instruction-following pass rather than a capability jump. Anthropic shipped 1.0 through 1.3 within months of each other and then retired all four on a single day.
