Coming Soon Models
Some models in the modelBridge catalog show a “Coming soon” badge instead of an Add button. This means the model exists on the provider’s platform — but modelBridge can’t yet build a reliable interface for it.
Why some models show “Coming soon”
Section titled “Why some models show “Coming soon””modelBridge generates a custom interface for every model: parameter sliders, media inputs, cost estimates, validation checks. To do this, it needs the model’s full specification — a complete description of what the model accepts and returns.
When a provider launches a new model, the model itself is often available before its specification is fully published. During this gap, modelBridge knows the model exists but doesn’t have enough information to build a usable, trustworthy interface for it.
Rather than hiding these models entirely or showing a button that leads to a broken experience, modelBridge shows them as “Coming soon” cards so you know they’re on the way. This is a deliberate choice — honesty over false availability.
What happens next
Section titled “What happens next”modelBridge checks for updates automatically in the background. The moment a model’s specification becomes available, it passes verification and appears in the catalog on its own — no plugin update needed, no action required from you.
Most models move from “Coming soon” to fully available within a few days of launch.
