Your model ID
will die.

Do not find out in prod.

Zombify is an AI model deprecation monitor for developers shipping with OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini and OpenRouter. Paste a model ID, check the corpse, then watch the dependencies that can quietly break your app.

Built for hardcoded model IDs, dusty .env files, client projects, launch demos and production routes that should not die silently.

Free

Check the corpse

Paste one model ID and see whether it is alive, deprecated, retired, zombie or risky.

$45 AUD lifetime

Watch the stack

Track up to 10 production model IDs and get emailed when something starts crawling toward the grave.

No dashboard theatre

Built for devs

Not tracing. Not evals. Not another observability cathedral. Just lifecycle risk before it ruins your week.

Free model checker

Check the model ID before it bites.

Choose a provider and model ID. Zombify checks lifecycle status, replacement risk and whether that dependency still deserves to be in your production config.

Deprecated Retired Zombie Replacement paths

How it works

01

Expose the model IDs

Choose a model manually, or paste your .env and let Zombify sniff out the risky bits. No account needed for a quick check.

02

We watch the lifecycle rot

Zombify monitors provider lifecycle signals and tracks when a model becomes deprecated, retired, renamed, zombie or no longer safe to run.

03

You get the warning

If something changes, you get an email with the risk and a replacement path before production breaks and everybody starts asking who touched the config.

Simple pricing

Free checks. Lifetime watchlist. No subscription brain rot.

Forever

  • Check any model instantly

  • No sign-up, no nonsense
LIFETIME
$45 AUD

Lifetime

Watch up to 10 AI models your app actually depends on. Get email alerts when a model becomes deprecated, retired, renamed, zombie, unstable or unsafe to run. Includes .env model detection, shareable status pages and future lifecycle updates.

  • Watch up to 10 production model IDs
  • Get emailed when something dies
  • .env model detection
  • Shareable status page
  • All future updates included

Built because provider changelogs are a terrible incident response plan.

AI model deprecation monitoring

Track LLM lifecycle changes before they break production.

Zombify monitors AI model lifecycle changes across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini and OpenRouter, so developers know when a model is active, at risk, deprecated, zombie or retired. It turns provider deprecations, shutdown dates and replacement model signals into clear warnings before a hardcoded model ID breaks your app.

When to use Zombify

01

You have model IDs hiding in code, .env files, agent configs or client projects.

02

You want alerts before a provider shutdown breaks production.

03

You need to know whether a model is active, deprecated, retired, zombie or risky.

04

You manage client, team or production AI stacks and need a shareable model status page.

05

You do not want to manually read provider changelogs like a cursed release-note monk.

They change fast. We track the Horde daily.

Still breathing (for now)

Active and at-risk models across major AI providers. Changes appear after review.

Frequently asked questions

What is Zombify?

Zombify is an AI model lifecycle monitor for developers running LLM-powered apps in production. It catches deprecated, retired, renamed, zombie and risky model IDs before a provider change becomes your outage.

Who is Zombify for?

Zombify is for developers, indie hackers, AI startups, agencies and technical teams that ship AI-powered apps. If a hardcoded model ID can break a demo, workflow, client app or production route, Zombify is watching the graveyard for you.

Which AI providers does Zombify monitor?

Zombify monitors OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini and OpenRouter models. That covers the providers most LLM apps are already stitching into production.

Does Zombify alert me before AI models are deprecated?

Yes. Zombify sends alerts when a watched model becomes deprecated, retired, renamed, zombie, unstable or unsafe to run, so you can move before production starts smoking.

Can Zombify check models from a .env file?

Yes. Zombify can detect model IDs from a pasted .env file in your browser, then check whether those models are active, deprecated, retired, zombie or risky. It is built for the ugly places model IDs actually live.

Is Zombify useful for production AI apps?

Yes. Zombify is built for production AI apps that depend on OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini or OpenRouter model IDs and need warning before a lifecycle change breaks a real user flow.

How is Zombify different from manually checking provider changelogs?

Zombify turns scattered provider changelogs, docs updates and lifecycle notices into one model status workflow. You can keep shipping instead of reading release notes like a doomed night watchman.
