Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available as a web and desktop app, through the API, and inside tools like Claude Code. Outages typically surface as messages failing mid-stream, a spinning cursor that never resolves, or capacity errors during peak hours. Anthropic reports API and chat availability separately, so one can degrade while the other stays healthy.

Is Claude down for everyone or just you?

Our automated checks are reaching Claude normally right now, and it answered our last one in 51ms. That makes any trouble you are hitting more likely to be local to your connection, account or network than a full outage, which usually means you can fix it from your end.

Measured since 2026-08-12. Windows reaching further back are averaged over the 39 days we watched, not the full period. Counts our own checks. Days Claude reported an incident are coloured in the timeline above but do not change this figure.

What to do if Claude is down for just you

  • Check whether claude.ai and the API are both affected — they can fail separately.
  • Long conversations can hit the context limit and error out; starting a fresh chat rules that out.
  • If you're on the API, a 429 is rate limiting and a 529 is overload — both resolve on retry with backoff.
  • Sign out and back in if messages fail to send but the page loads.
