Frequently Asked Questions
How is OpenAI status determined?
AI Status queries the official OpenAI status API every 60 seconds. The indicator can be: operational (all systems normal), degraded performance (slower than usual), partial outage (some features unavailable), or major outage (widespread service disruption).
What should I do if OpenAI is down?
Confirm the outage is on OpenAI's side (not your network) by checking this page. If confirmed, wait for their team to resolve it — most outages resolve within minutes to hours. You can also visit OpenAI's official status page for real-time incident updates and ETAs.
How reliable is OpenAI?
Major AI providers like OpenAI typically target 99.9% uptime. Full outages are rare but do happen, often during peak usage periods or after major deployments. Degraded performance (slower response times, elevated error rates) is more common and usually self-resolves quickly.
