Notion Restores Anthropic Models After 12-Hour Outage Hit Claude Access

2 articles · Updated · TechCrunch · Jun 7

Summary

  • 12 hours after disabling all Anthropic models in Notion AI, Notion restored access and said the disruption was temporary.
  • Early Sunday, Notion had warned that Anthropic’s Opus 4.7 and 4.8 models were suffering degraded performance, driving a higher rate of failures for users who selected them.
  • Anthropic said a brief infrastructure issue caused elevated errors across multiple Claude models for a short period and that service has since been resolved.
  • Around 1,200 reposts of Notion’s outage post fueled speculation about model quality, which Notion’s head of product Max Schoening rejected, calling it a routine service disruption.
