OpenAI API’s track record
The check above is one request, right now. This is what we have actually recorded over the last 7 days.
We check OpenAI API every 10 minutes from a single region (AWS us-east-1). That measures whether OpenAI API answered us, not whether every feature works for every user everywhere. A regional outage that misses us will not show up here.
One check can’t tell you.
Continuous monitoring can.
We just checked OpenAI API once, from one place. That’s enough to spot a total outage, but a DNS problem, a slow degradation, or something that broke an hour ago needs continuous checks rather than a single probe. That’s exactly what Site Qwality does for the sites you run.
Questions, answered.
When you load this page we send a real request to api.openai.com from our server and report exactly what came back: the HTTP status code and the response time. We deliberately check a service endpoint rather than a marketing homepage, because a company’s brochure site often stays up while the product behind it is broken. A normal response means it’s reachable; a server error or a timeout suggests trouble. Results are cached for up to 60 seconds, so hit “re-check” for a fresher read.
Our check passing means OpenAI API answered us, from our location. Outages are often regional, or specific to one network, browser, or account. If it’s broken only for you, try another network or device, and check the OpenAI API official status page above.
Yes. Site Qwality monitors any URL as fast as every 30 seconds and pings you on Slack, Discord, Teams, email, SMS or any webhook the moment it goes down. It’s free to start: create a monitor in under two minutes.
