Common Causes

  • The model is overloaded with too many concurrent users
  • Model is being updated or undergoing maintenance
  • The model has been deprecated or renamed
  • Your plan doesn't include access to this specific model
  • Regional capacity issue — model available in some regions but not others

✓ How to Fix It

  1. Check if Moonshot AI (Kimi) has announced any model changes or deprecations
  2. Try a different model version (e.g., gpt-4 instead of gpt-4-turbo, claude-3-haiku instead of claude-3-opus)
  3. Wait 5-10 minutes and retry — overload is often temporary
  4. Check your plan's model access — some models are limited to higher tiers
  5. Verify the exact model name/ID — typos or outdated names cause this error
  6. Check this page for community reports on model availability
