OpenAI is ending API access to fan-favorite GPT-4o model in February 2026

OpenAI has sent out emails notifying API customers that its chatgpt-4o-latest model will be retired from the developer platform in mid-February 2026,.

Access to the model is scheduled to end on February 16, 2026, creating a roughly three-month transition period for remaining applications still built on GPT-4o.

Sources familiar with the matter emphasized that this timeline applies only to the API. OpenAI has not announced any schedule for removing GPT-4o from ChatGPT, where it remains an option for individual consumers and users across paid subscription tiers.

Internally, the model is considered a legacy system with relatively low API usage compared to the Discover Copy
