Press & data
AIDownCheck tracks whether AI services are up, and — the part nobody else publishes — which other tools go down with them. If you're covering an AI outage, this page has the numbers, a chart you can screenshot, and a person to email.
The numbers
Read live from our database when this page rebuilds. We check every service every five minutes from a single vantage point, so our downtime figures are approximate at that resolution — see what our data can and can't tell you. Our incident history begins June 22, 2026; we cannot describe outages that predate it, and we don't pretend to.
Concentration: how many AI tools ride on each provider
This is the story most outage coverage misses. When one model provider has an incident, the failure surfaces in products that never mention that provider by name. Below is the share of the AI tools in our graph that depend on each provider for their core model.
Source: AIDownCheck dependency graph, https://aidowncheck.com/status-map. Percentages are of the AI tools in our graph that declare a model dependency, not of the AI industry. Dependencies are sourced from vendor documentation and public statements; a tool may use more than one provider, and a provider outage does not guarantee every dependent breaks.

AIDownCheck, "AI provider dependency graph," https://aidowncheck.com/status-map (accessed July 9, 2026).Pages reporters use most:
- /status-map — the live dependency graph.
- /what-breaks-when-anthropic-goes-down — blast radius for a single provider (one page per provider).
- /is-ai-down — every tracked service, right now.
- /availability — our methodology and its limits.
- /developers — free JSON API, no key.
How we know what we publish
We combine three signals that fail in different ways: the vendor's own status page, our independent reachability checks, and user reports. Each status carries a confidence level, and we say which signal produced it. A full description is on how AIDownCheck works.
Two things we will not do, in case it saves you a question. We do not publish uptime for a window longer than we have measured, and we do not report a service as down on the strength of our own probes alone — that gets labelled as a lower-confidence signal, with the reason shown.
