Overview
OpenAI Downtime Monitor is a free, developer-focused status dashboard that continuously tracks uptime, latency, and incident history for OpenAI APIs and other major LLM providers. Instead of manually refreshing provider status pages or guessing whether an error is in your code or on the platform side, you get a clear, real-time view of API health in one place.
The tool collects and visualizes performance metrics for different OpenAI models and endpoints, helping you quickly spot regional issues, model-specific slowdowns, and partial outages. Historical charts make it easy to correlate traffic spikes, deployment changes, or error rate increases with provider incidents, so you can debug faster and communicate more transparently with your team and stakeholders.
OpenAI Downtime Monitor is ideal for teams running production workloads on GPT models, RAG pipelines, or multi-provider LLM routing. It lets you make data-driven decisions, such as automatically failing over to a backup provider or temporarily disabling certain features when latency crosses a threshold. Because the monitor is free and accessible via the web, every engineer, SRE, or product manager can use it without extra setup. Whether you’re building a high-traffic AI product or a small internal tool, OpenAI Downtime Monitor gives you the operational visibility you need to ship reliable, stable AI experiences.

FAQ
What does OpenAI Downtime Monitor track?
OpenAI Downtime Monitor tracks uptime, latency, and incident history for various OpenAI APIs and other LLM providers, broken down by models, regions, and endpoints where available.
Is OpenAI Downtime Monitor really free to use?
Yes. The status dashboard is completely free to use in your browser, with no credit card, signup, or subscription required.
Does this tool affect my OpenAI API usage or performance?
No. OpenAI Downtime Monitor is an external status tool and does not sit in your request path, so it does not change, proxy, or throttle your API traffic in any way.
Can I use it for non-OpenAI LLM providers?
Yes. The monitor includes status and metrics for multiple LLM providers beyond OpenAI, so you can compare performance and reliability across vendors.
Do I need to integrate any SDK or API to get started?
No integration is required. Simply open the website to view live and historical status data; you can start monitoring immediately.
