Twenty Days or Six Months: How Much Time You Get When a Model Is Retired

Twenty Days or Six Months: How Much Time You Get When a Model Is Retired

On 11 September OpenAI announced a model retirement with twenty days' notice. On 24 September a video API shuts down, and after the export window the material made with it is deleted for good. We checked what six providers commit to *in writing*: the stated notice period runs from two weeks to sixty days, the actual practice from twenty days to six months — and in one case there is no commitment at all.

Three Billion Euros for Sovereign Open Weights — What Does That Buy a Small Business?

On 8 September Mistral AI announced a 3 billion euro round at a valuation of 21 billion euros, led by Samsung — by the company's account the largest European technology funding round ever. The keywords of the announcement: open weights, its own infrastructure, and a customer who is "never locked into a single vendor's roadmap, pricing or availability". We checked how much of that also holds in the licence text and on the price list.

Stripe Is Buying OpenRouter: A Payments Company Becomes the Gatekeeper of Models

On 19 August both Stripe and OpenRouter announced that the payments provider is acquiring the largest model router — the layer that carries more than ten trillion tokens a day towards 400 models and 80 providers. Neither announcement names a price. OpenRouter promises the product, the name and the neutrality all stay as they are. Not one official statement says a word about pricing or about data handling — and that in itself is information.

Double Price at Peak: Token Pricing by Time of Day Is Here

Double Price at Peak: Token Pricing by Time of Day Is Here

On 13 August DeepSeek announced that in three days it switches to peak and off-peak pricing: the off-peak rate will be half the peak rate. Alibaba made the same move in June with a night-time discount. The big Western providers price patience rather than the clock — and batch is exactly half price at all of them. We checked what the same job costs in five different tiers, and when waiting is worth it.
