Get notified when Gemini goes down
AIWatch Data: Based on AIWatch data from the last 30 days, Gemini experienced 3 incidents with an average recovery time of 109h 52m.
Gemini is Google's multimodal AI model API, capable of processing text, images, audio, and video. It powers Google AI Studio and is available through the Vertex AI platform for enterprise applications.
AIWatch Insight: Google does not publish official uptime percentages for Gemini on their public status pages, making independent monitoring especially valuable. AIWatch tracks Gemini through Google AI Studio status (aistudio.google.com/status) and Google Cloud incident feeds in parallel so both the direct API and Vertex surfaces are covered. Gemini outages tend to be infrequent but can be longer in duration compared to other LLM providers.
When Gemini API is down, applications using Google's AI models will fail to process requests. This affects both direct API users and services built on Google AI Studio or Vertex AI.
