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, …).
