Is it down for you, or for everyone?
A status page shows what the vendor has confirmed, which often lags what users see. Run a live check of openai.com to see whether it answers right now.

Is OpenAI down right now?
The status at the top of this page is OpenAI's own, read from its public status page every couple of minutes. It shows what OpenAI's team has confirmed. For an independent check of whether openai.com answers right now, use the live check on the is-it-down page.
Where is OpenAI's official status page?
OpenAI publishes its status at https://status.openai.com. This page shows the same data with the recent incident history in one place, and links each incident to OpenAI's own write-up.
Why does OpenAI not work for me when its status says operational?
A status page lists the incidents a vendor has confirmed, and confirmation takes time: problems often reach users minutes before they reach the status page, and some partial or regional problems never appear on it. Your own network, account or region can also be the cause.
How can I get alerted when OpenAI has an incident?
Add an External Status Page monitor in Uptimely pointed at https://status.openai.com. It reads the page on a schedule and alerts your team by email, SMS, phone call, Slack, Discord or browser push when OpenAI reports a problem, beside the monitors for your own services.
