Get notified when Claude goes down
Claude is a large language model API developed by Anthropic. It powers applications ranging from chatbots to code generation tools, offering models like Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku for different performance and cost trade-offs.
AIWatch Insight: Unlike other providers, Anthropic reports incidents per model (Opus, Sonnet, Haiku), resulting in higher incident counts compared to competitors. This does not necessarily indicate lower reliability — it reflects more granular reporting. When evaluating Claude API stability, focus on uptime percentage and recovery time rather than raw incident count.
When Claude API is down, developers may experience API request failures, increased latency, or model unavailability across Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku variants. Applications built on the Claude API will be unable to generate responses.
This page provides real-time status, 30-day uptime history, and recent incident details — updated every 60 seconds by AIWatch.
