Is DeepSeek down?
DeepSeek looks healthy. The official status page reports all systems operational and our independent checks are passing.
DeepSeekdown detector & server status
Is DeepSeek down or not working right now? This live DeepSeek down detector combines DeepSeek's official status feed, our own independent checks, and first-party user reports — and shows whether it's the DeepSeekAPI, the app, or a specific capability that's affected, plus the upstream AI provider it depends on. Use it to tell whether DeepSeekis having an outage today, and whether it's down for everyone or just you.
Crowd signal — your reports, not our automated checks.

13,022reachable checks. The line plots the median of each interval, so one timeout can't spike it, and we lead with the median rather than an average, which a single slow response would skew. Failed checks are excluded: a timeout is not a response time.
Responding normally (~156 ms typical).
Uptime & history
Tracking since Jun 22, 2026% of our checks that found DeepSeek fully operational — a degraded check counts against it, because a slow or partly-broken service is not a working one. Down and degraded time are counted at our 5-minute check resolution, so both are approximate. Longer windows fill in as data accrues — we never show uptime we haven't measured.
Check from your location
We test from our server; your browser tests from where you are. Two vantage points beat one.
Recent incidents
No recent incidents reported on DeepSeek's official status page. Historical incident tracking begins once our database is live — for now, see the official status page.
What this page can and can't tell you
- How we decide. We combine DeepSeek's official status feed, our own independent check from US East (Virginia), and first-party reports from readers. The confidence badge shows how many of those signals agree.
- On root cause. We have no visibility inside DeepSeek's systems. We report what the signals show rather than guessing at an internal cause.
- Outages are rarely all-or-nothing. Some are regional. Some hit one surface while the rest works, so the DeepSeek API can fail while the app is fine. The capability panel breaks it down.
- Green doesn't mean everyone. If our check reaches DeepSeekbut you can't, the problem is more likely local: your network, a VPN, browser extensions, or cache.
Frequently asked
Is DeepSeek down right now?+
Right now, DeepSeek appears to be operational. DeepSeek looks healthy. The official status page reports all systems operational and our independent checks are passing.
Is there a DeepSeek down detector?+
Yes — this page is a live DeepSeek down detector. It combines DeepSeek's official status feed, our own independent reachability check, first-party user reports, and the AI dependency graph, then shows a confidence level so you can tell a real outage from a local glitch. DeepSeek is currently operational. We only show signals we can actually verify — never invented report totals.
Is there a DeepSeek outage today?+
No active DeepSeek outage is detected right now — it appears operational. For past incidents and dated outage recaps, see DeepSeek's status history below.
What is DeepSeek's server status and API status right now?+
DeepSeek is currently operational. Server status and API status aren't always the same — the DeepSeek API can fail while the web app works, or vice-versa. The capability panel on this page breaks status down by surface (API, app, and any image/voice features) so you can see exactly which part is affected.
Is the DeepSeek API down? (DeepSeek API status)+
Check the API row in the capability panel above — DeepSeek is currently operational overall, but the API can carry its own status. For developers, "DeepSeek API status" problems usually surface here first, because we read DeepSeek's own status feed and watch the API surface directly.
Why is DeepSeek slow or not working?+
Common causes are an upstream provider incident, API rate limits during peak demand, a regional CDN issue, or maintenance. DeepSeek is currently operational. We show the official status, our independent check, and a confidence level so you can see which signals point to a real problem.
Is DeepSeek down for everyone or just me?+
We check DeepSeek from our own servers, independent of your device or network, and combine that with DeepSeek's official feed and user reports. If our independent check reaches DeepSeek but you can't, the problem is most likely local — try a different network, disable a VPN/extensions, or clear your cache. If our check and the official status both show problems, DeepSeek is down for everyone.
How can I tell if it's DeepSeek or my own connection?+
AIDownCheck runs an independent reachability check from our own servers, separate from DeepSeek's official status page. If our check passes but you still can't connect, the problem is more likely local — try a different network, clear your cookies, disable VPN/extensions, or use a different browser. If our check is failing too, it's more likely DeepSeek's side.
What can I use while DeepSeek is down?+
Good alternatives include ChatGPT, Claude, Moonshot (Kimi). We track their live status too, so you can switch to one that's currently operational.
Where is DeepSeek's official status page?+
DeepSeek's official status page is at https://deepseek.statuspage.io. AIDownCheck reads it automatically and combines it with our own checks — so you get the answer without juggling tabs.
