AI Tool WatchArchive: self-hosted runtimes and open-model access
Frozen on 2026-10-11. Scope narrowed to hosted consumer AI products from providers with roughly 1% or greater public market share, and maintenance was slimmed. Self-hosted runtimes and open-model access records fall outside that line, so they were frozen rather than kept current.
These records are kept for reference and are not refreshed. Each one shows the date it was last verified before the freeze, so treat anything here as possibly out of date. For current coverage, see Capabilities and Features.
Machine-readable copies: api/v1/archive.json and api/v1/model-access.json.
