AI Status

Is ChatGPT down, or is it just you?

AI Status answers that one question, fast, for the AI apps people actually use: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, DeepSeek, Meta AI, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Character.AI, and Le Chat.

What makes it different from mirroring an official status page:

• We test the services ourselves. Cron-driven probes send real requests to each provider every few minutes and record latency and errors (lib/services/provider-probes.ts).
• We read the official incident feeds for every provider and link to the original source on each incident (lib/services/source-ingestion.ts).
• Visitors report in. A one-tap "it's broken for me too" button feeds the "is it just you?" verdict, with self-test traffic filtered out.
• We never fake a green light. If a status can't be verified it renders as "checking", not "operational".

Data pipeline

Cron routes under /api/cron/* (protected by CRON_SECRET) poll status pages, run live probes, ingest incident feeds, classify community reports, and send email alerts. Schedules live in Cloud Scheduler; results land in Firestore (incidents, synthetic_probes, casual_reports, provider_status, …).
