# AI Model Availability & Access Status - January 2025
## Overview
This document provides the current status of AI model availability and access requirements for the major providers you're using extensively. Updated based on research conducted in January 2025.
---
## 🔍 **OpenAI o1 Models - Access Issues Identified**
### **Current Issues:**
1. **404 Model Not Found**: `o1-preview` and `o1-mini` require **Tier 5 API access**
2. **400 System Prompt Error**: o1 models don't support system prompts at all
3. **Access Requirements**: Need $1,000+ paid and 30+ days since first payment
### **Available o1 Models:**
- `o1-preview` (September 2024) - Tier 5 only, 50 queries/week
- `o1-mini` (September 2024) - Tier 5 only, 50 queries/day
- `o1` (December 2024) - Full model, Tier 5 only, 20 RPM
### **API Limitations:**
- ❌ No function calling support
- ❌ No streaming support
- ❌ No system messages
- ✅ Uses `max_completion_tokens` instead of `max_tokens`
- ✅ New `reasoning_effort` parameter (low/medium/high)
### **Solution Implemented:**
- Detection for o1 models to skip system prompts
- Proper parameter handling for reasoning models
- Fallback to GPT-4.1 for comprehensive testing
