About Grok

AIWatch Data: Based on AIWatch data from the last 30 days, Grok has maintained a clean record with zero incidents.

Grok is xAI's consumer AI assistant — the chat experience on grok.com and the "Grok" mobile apps on iOS and Android, plus the Grok integration in X (Twitter). It is distinct from the xAI developer API; AIWatch tracks the consumer app surfaces here and the API separately.

AIWatch Insight: xAI's official status page tags incidents by affected surface (Grok iOS / Grok Android / Grok Web), and AIWatch scopes this page to those three app tags — so an app-only incident shows here even when the developer API stays healthy, and vice versa. Some incidents affect only one platform (e.g. an Android-only outage); AIWatch does not merge per-platform incidents into one, since they are not always the same event.

When Grok is down, users cannot start or continue conversations in the app, on grok.com, or via the Grok integration in X. The iOS, Android, and Web clients can fail independently or together depending on the cause; the xAI API may still be operational for developers.

This page provides real-time status, uptime history, and recent incident details — updated every 5 minutes by AIWatch.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Grok down right now?

Check the live status indicator at the top of this page. AIWatch monitors Grok's iOS, Android, and Web app surfaces and shows real-time operational status from xAI's official status feed.

Is this the same as the xAI API?

No. This page tracks the consumer app (grok.com and the mobile apps). The developer API has its own page — AIWatch monitors the two surfaces separately because they can fail independently.

Why is Grok not responding?

Grok may be experiencing high traffic, a backend incident, or maintenance affecting one or more of its app surfaces. Check this page for current status and recent incident history.
