+# Product Version Lifecycle 
+
+## Overview
+Run:ai follows a structured product lifecycle to ensure customers receive regular updates, security patches, and long-term stability for their deployments. 
+This document outlines the support phases for each release version, including the timelines for Full Support and Extended Support.
+
+* **Full Support** - Each version receives critical and important bug fixes.
+* **Extended Support** - After the full support period ends, the version continues to receive critical bug fixes.
+* **End of Support** - Once a version reaches this stage, it will no longer receive updates, and customers are encouraged to upgrade to a supported version.
+
+## Versions
+
+The table below details the supported versions of Run:ai, along with their respective support timelines. 
+If your deployment is approaching the end of support, we recommend planning an upgrade to ensure continued security and functionality.
