ChatGPT is a web service at chat.openai.com. Visit the ChatGPT status page on WebsiteDown for outage data, community reports, and AI-sourced intelligence.

Is it just me or is ChatGPT down for everyone?

We check chat.openai.com with a server-side HTTP probe. If our check shows the site is up but you can't access it, the issue is likely on your end — try clearing your cache, switching networks, or restarting your device.

How long do ChatGPT outages usually last?

Most ChatGPT outages resolve within minutes to a few hours. Extended outages are rare for major services. Check our incident history for past resolution times.

Where can I report a ChatGPT outage?

You can report ChatGPT issues on WebsiteDown — community reports help confirm whether outages are widespread. You can also check the official status page at https://status.openai.com.

Is the ChatGPT API also affected?

API outages and web interface outages don't always coincide. If ChatGPT's website is down, the API may still be operational (or vice versa). Check the status page for service-specific details.

Are AI responses slower during a ChatGPT outage?

During partial outages, ChatGPT may return responses more slowly or time out. If you're seeing degraded performance, check this page for incident signals.
