Notion restores access to Anthropic after service disruption

Notion posted early Sunday morning that Anthropic's Opus 4.7 and 4.8 models were experiencing degraded performance. The post said this was causing a higher rate of failures for users selecting these models in Notion AI. As a result, the company disabled use of all Anthropic models in its automated productivity tool. Notion head of product Max Schoening wrote twelve hours later that he was astonished at the amount of people reposting the announcement because they wanted a story around model quality to be the reason. Schoening said the degraded performance was a temporary service disruption and noted that this happens to Notion, GitHub, AWS, your OpenClaw, and everything in between. Schoening added that Notion has restored access to Anthropic's models. An Anthropic spokesperson said in a statement that a brief infrastructure issue caused elevated errors on multiple Claude models for a short period of time. The issue has since been resolved. The spokesperson said the company is grateful to its users for their patience while it worked to restore service.
