Is MiniMax down?
We couldn't read MiniMax's official status page, but our independent checks can reach it, so it appears to be working.
MiniMaxdown detector & server status
Is MiniMax down or not working right now? This live MiniMax down detector combines MiniMax's official status feed, our own independent checks, and first-party user reports — and shows whether it's the MiniMaxAPI, the app, or a specific capability that's affected, plus the upstream AI provider it depends on. Use it to tell whether MiniMaxis having an outage today, and whether it's down for everyone or just you.
Crowd signal — your reports, not our automated checks.

12,960reachable 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.
Above its usual range — typically ~124 ms, currently 330 ms.
Uptime & history
Tracking since Jun 22, 2026% of our checks that found MiniMax 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.

Recent incidents
No recent incidents reported on MiniMax'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 MiniMax'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 MiniMax'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 MiniMax API can fail while the app is fine. The capability panel breaks it down.
- Green doesn't mean everyone. If our check reaches MiniMaxbut you can't, the problem is more likely local: your network, a VPN, browser extensions, or cache.
Frequently asked
Is MiniMax down right now?+
Right now, MiniMax appears to be operational. We couldn't read MiniMax's official status page, but our independent checks can reach it, so it appears to be working.
Is there a MiniMax down detector?+
Yes — this page is a live MiniMax down detector. It combines MiniMax'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. MiniMax is currently operational. We only show signals we can actually verify — never invented report totals.
Is there a MiniMax outage today?+
No active MiniMax outage is detected right now — it appears operational. For past incidents and dated outage recaps, see MiniMax's status history below.
What is MiniMax's server status and API status right now?+
MiniMax is currently operational. Server status and API status aren't always the same — the MiniMax 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 MiniMax API down? (MiniMax API status)+
Check the API row in the capability panel above — MiniMax is currently operational overall, but the API can carry its own status. For developers, "MiniMax API status" problems usually surface here first, because we read MiniMax's own status feed and watch the API surface directly.
Why is MiniMax slow or not working?+
Common causes are an upstream provider incident, API rate limits during peak demand, a regional CDN issue, or maintenance. MiniMax 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 MiniMax down for everyone or just me?+
We check MiniMax from our own servers, independent of your device or network, and combine that with MiniMax's official feed and user reports. If our independent check reaches MiniMax 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, MiniMax is down for everyone.
How can I tell if it's MiniMax or my own connection?+
AIDownCheck runs an independent reachability check from our own servers, separate from MiniMax'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 MiniMax's side.
What can I use while MiniMax is down?+
Good alternatives include Runway, Luma AI. We track their live status too, so you can switch to one that's currently operational.
Where is MiniMax's official status page?+
MiniMax's official status page is at https://status.minimax.io. AIDownCheck reads it automatically and combines it with our own checks — so you get the answer without juggling tabs.
