text-moderation-007 (OpenAI)

Retired

Yes — text-moderation-007 is retired. OpenAI deprecated it on April 28, 2025 and shut it down on October 27, 2025; API requests to it now fail. The recommended replacement is omni-moderation.

The last of the text-only moderation classifiers, and the endpoint most trust-and-safety pipelines were built against before images became table stakes. Both floating pointers, -stable and -latest, resolved to it and went down with it in October 2025.

The category set is wider and the response includes per-category scores for images as well as text, so any thresholds tuned against the old categories need re-checking rather than copying.

What parameters omni-moderation accepts on modelparams.dev

Change the id

In most cases the migration is one string. Check the parameter differences before you ship — newer models drop older sampling knobs more often than they add them.

OpenAI text-moderation-007 shut down on October 27, 2025. API requests to it fail from that date onward.
What replaces OpenAI text-moderation-007?
OpenAI recommends omni-moderation (`omni-moderation`) as the replacement for OpenAI text-moderation-007. The category set is wider and the response includes per-category scores for images as well as text, so any thresholds tuned against the old categories need re-checking rather than copying.

# How to use modeldeprecations.dev

[modeldeprecations.dev](https://modeldeprecations.dev) answers one question per model: is it deprecated,
when does it shut down, and what replaces it. Every date on the site is cited to the
provider's own documentation, with the date we last checked it.

Three lifecycle states are used, matching the providers' own vocabulary:

- **active** — still supported, no deprecation announced.
- **deprecated** — the provider has announced it is going away. It still answers requests.
- **retired** — API access is gone. Requests fail.

A model can be active *and* carry a shutdown date: Anthropic publishes a
"not sooner than" date and Google publishes an earliest shutdown date for models
that are current and fully supported. Those are reported as scheduled shutdowns,
not deprecations, because that is what the provider actually committed to.

## Check one model

```bash
curl https://modeldeprecations.dev/api/v1/models/openai/gpt-4-32k.json
```

Or fetch the page as Markdown, which includes the answer, the dates and the sources:

```bash
curl https://modeldeprecations.dev/openai/gpt-4-32k.md
```

## Full catalog

```bash
curl https://modeldeprecations.dev/api/v1/models.json
```

Ids are `provider/model`. Dated snapshots (`gpt-4-32k-0613`) are listed as aliases of
their canonical entry rather than as separate records.

Each entry carries `computed_status`, the lifecycle state recomputed against the build
date — so a model whose shutdown has passed reads `retired` without anyone editing data.

Data lives in YAML under `models/{provider}/{model}.yaml` in the
[GitHub repo](https://github.com/mnfst/modeldeprecations.dev). Every lifecycle date needs a source URL; CI rejects a
date without one. Open a PR.
