What to do if OpenAI is down

  1. 1

    Check the official status page for a component-level breakdown: status.openai.com

  2. 2

    Rule out your own side — try a different network or device, and clear your DNS cache. If only you can't reach it, it's likely local.

  3. 3

    If your own product depends on OpenAI, monitor that dependency directly so you're alerted before your users notice.

OpenAI outage FAQ

Is OpenAI down or is ChatGPT just slow?

This checks openai.com. ChatGPT and the API are separate components that can degrade independently — status.openai.com breaks out ChatGPT, the API, and specific models.

My app's OpenAI calls are failing — is it an outage?

Check status.openai.com for API incidents. If there's none, it may be rate limits or your key. Monitoring your own AI endpoints catches both platform and integration issues.
