Is Lambda down?
Lambda's official status page is reporting degraded performance ("Partial System Degradation"). Our independent checks can still reach Lambda, so some surfaces may still work.
Lambdadown detector & server status
Is Lambda down or not working right now? This live Lambda down detector combines Lambda Labs's official status feed, our own independent checks, and first-party user reports — and shows whether it's the LambdaAPI, the app, or a specific capability that's affected, plus the upstream AI provider it depends on. Use it to tell whether Lambdais having an outage today, and whether it's down for everyone or just you.
Crowd signal — your reports, not our automated checks.
How we know
We combine independent signals into one verdict. Here's what each source is reporting right now.

13,005reachable 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 (~94 ms typical).
Uptime & history
Tracking since Jun 22, 2026% of our checks that found Lambda 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.

What this page can and can't tell you
- How we decide. We combine Lambda Labs'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 Lambda Labs'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 Lambda API can fail while the app is fine. The capability panel breaks it down.
- Green doesn't mean everyone. If our check reaches Lambdabut you can't, the problem is more likely local: your network, a VPN, browser extensions, or cache.
Frequently asked
Is Lambda down right now?+
Right now, Lambda appears to be degraded — some users may see errors or slowness. Lambda's official status page is reporting degraded performance ("Partial System Degradation"). Our independent checks can still reach Lambda, so some surfaces may still work.
Is there a Lambda down detector?+
Yes — this page is a live Lambda down detector. It combines Lambda'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. Lambda is currently degraded. We only show signals we can actually verify — never invented report totals.
Is there a Lambda outage today?+
Lambda appears to be degraded right now. Lambda's official status page is reporting degraded performance ("Partial System Degradation"). Our independent checks can still reach Lambda, so some surfaces may still work. See the live signals above and the incident history below for the timeline.
What is Lambda's server status and API status right now?+
Lambda is currently degraded. Server status and API status aren't always the same — the Lambda 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 Lambda API down? (Lambda Labs API status)+
Check the API row in the capability panel above — Lambda is currently degraded overall, but the API can carry its own status. For developers, "Lambda Labs API status" problems usually surface here first, because we read Lambda Labs's own status feed and watch the API surface directly.
Why is Lambda slow or not working?+
Common causes are an upstream provider incident, API rate limits during peak demand, a regional CDN issue, or maintenance. Lambda is currently degraded. We show the official status, our independent check, and a confidence level so you can see which signals point to a real problem.
Is Lambda down for everyone or just me?+
We check Lambda from our own servers, independent of your device or network, and combine that with Lambda Labs's official feed and user reports. If our independent check reaches Lambda 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, Lambda is down for everyone.
How can I tell if it's Lambda or my own connection?+
AIDownCheck runs an independent reachability check from our own servers, separate from Lambda'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 Lambda's side.
What can I use while Lambda is down?+
Good alternatives include Fireworks AI, Together AI. We track their live status too, so you can switch to one that's currently operational.
Where is Lambda's official status page?+
Lambda's official status page is at https://status.lambda.ai. AIDownCheck reads it automatically and combines it with our own checks — so you get the answer without juggling tabs.
Latest from Lambda Labs
**Severity Level:** Medium We’re currently investigating a potential issue with our B200 cluster performance in us-midwest-2 impacting Managed Kubernetes, and 1-Click Cluster customers. Our teams are actively working to identify the root cause and mitigate or resolve the issue. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this time.
