ChatGPT is a conversational AI assistant by OpenAI, available on web, iOS, Android, and desktop. Used by millions for writing, research, coding, and creative tasks, it is powered by OpenAI's latest language models.
AIWatch Insight: ChatGPT and OpenAI API share infrastructure but are tracked separately by AIWatch. A ChatGPT outage does not always mean the API is down — and vice versa. OpenAI has historically maintained one of the highest uptime records among AI providers, with most incidents resolved within 30 minutes.
When ChatGPT is down, users cannot access the web interface for conversations, file uploads, or image generation. Mobile apps and API integrations through the OpenAI platform may also be affected.
This page provides real-time status, 30-day uptime history, and recent incident details — updated every 5 minutes by AIWatch.
