# LaoZhang API Announcements: Models, Pricing, and Service Status

> See the latest LaoZhang API model launches, pricing and billing changes, route recovery, deprecations, migrations, and service-status announcements.

This page lists the latest LaoZhang API announcements that still matter to users. Each entry stays compact—date plus one sentence—while model comparisons, affected users, integration steps, FAQs, and evidence live on standalone detail pages.

## Latest announcements

* **July 23, 2026** — `api.laozhang.ai` is affected by DNS attacks and pollution. The documentation default is now `api2.laozhang.ai`; API keys and request parameters remain unchanged. [Read the migration guide](/en/announcements/api-domain-migration-2026-07)

<Info>
  Current model availability, token groups, prices, and actual charges are shown in the [LaoZhang API console](https://api2.laozhang.ai/account/pricing) and call logs. An archived announcement records a past state and does not automatically describe the current state.

## Frequently asked questions

### Where should I confirm whether a newly announced model is available?

Read the announcement detail page, then check the [console model and pricing page](https://api2.laozhang.ai/account/pricing) for your token group. Run a small-volume request with the production token before increasing traffic.

### Why does the announcement index no longer contain every detail?

The index is a lightweight entry point. Standalone detail pages contain complete, searchable answers, and annual archives preserve historical records. This keeps announcements from pushing product and model documentation down the main navigation.

### Are prices and service states in archived announcements still current?

Not necessarily. Archives describe the state at the time of publication. Use the latest announcement, console, and call logs for current availability, pricing, and billing.
