No — xAI (Grok) is operational
Get notified when xAI (Grok) goes down
AIWatch Data: Based on AIWatch data from the last 30 days, xAI (Grok) experienced 2 incidents with an average recovery time of 31 minutes.
xAI is the AI company founded by Elon Musk, providing the Grok family of language models via API. Grok models are known for real-time data access through X (Twitter) integration.
AIWatch Insight: xAI publishes incidents via RSS feed rather than a typical Statuspage interface, so AIWatch parses a different format. xAI is a relatively new entrant — its incident history is shorter than established providers, and probe-based response times are tracked across multiple regions.
When xAI API is down, applications using Grok models for real-time data analysis or chat will fail. Apps relying on Grok's X integration for current events queries will lose that capability.
This page provides real-time status, 30-day uptime history, and recent incident details — updated every 5 minutes by AIWatch.

How do I check xAI status?
You can check xAI status on this page, on the official xAI status page at status.x.ai, or on the AIWatch dashboard at ai-watch.dev.
What are alternatives to Grok?
Based on current AIWatch data, Groq Cloud (Score: 90) and Fireworks AI (Score: 86) are the most reliable alternatives right now. For general LLM API, OpenAI, Claude, or Gemini are mature alternatives. None match Grok's real-time X integration, but AIWatch shows current availability for each.
Is Grok down because of X (Twitter)?
Grok depends on xAI infrastructure separate from X. However, real-time data features may be affected by X platform issues. Check this page for the current xAI API status.
