Is ChatGPT down today?

Check the status badge at the top of this page for the current status. Pulsetic follows the official status page and cross-references it with user reports to give you the most accurate picture.

How often does ChatGPT go down?

Based on our 90-day data, we've recorded 103 incidents, of which 11 were major or critical. The median resolution time is 1h 35m.

How are outages detected?

Pulsetic follows the official status page and records the incidents the provider posts there. Crowdsourced user reports and Pulsetic's own synthetic checks add an early warning, which can surface an issue before the official status page mentions it.

Is it down for everyone or just me?

The outage map and region breakdown help answer this. If reports are concentrated in one area it may be regional; if hotspots appear globally it's a widespread outage. Submit your own report to help others understand the scope.

What does "never acknowledged" mean?

"Never acknowledged" means Pulsetic recorded a service disruption from user reports and its own checks, but the official status page never posted an incident for it. This is one of the core reasons teams use third-party monitoring alongside official status pages.
