About DeepSeek
AIWatch Data: DeepSeek's reported uptime is 99.70%. Based on AIWatch data from the last 30 days, it experienced 5 incidents with an average recovery time of 1h 29m.
DeepSeek API provides access to DeepSeek's language models. DeepSeek is a Chinese AI lab.
AIWatch Insight: DeepSeek migrated their status page to Flashduty in May 2026. The platform blocks plain server requests, so AIWatch reads DeepSeek's official Flashduty status feed via a browser-rendered fetch, alongside a direct API latency probe.
When DeepSeek API is down, applications relying on its models will fail.
This page provides real-time status and recent incident details; uptime history is shown only when the official source publishes sufficient comparable records — updated every 5 minutes by AIWatch.
