About Claude (Anthropic) outages

Written by the HostTracker monitoring team · updated from live probe data.

Claude, Anthropic's AI assistant, is used both directly through claude.ai and increasingly through the Claude API and Claude Code inside developer tools and business workflows - so an outage can simultaneously break a chat session, a production integration, and a coding session for people who never touch the website at all. Because Claude's web app, API, and developer tools run on related but distinct infrastructure, it's possible for one to degrade while the others stay healthy, which is exactly the kind of nuance a single "is it down" glance at your own screen can't tell you. Checking claude.ai from multiple independent network locations is the fastest way to separate "Anthropic has an incident" from "something is wrong on my end."

Common causes of Claude (Anthropic) downtime

Not sure whether it's Claude (Anthropic) or your own connection? Read the full breakdown in our website down checker guide for a general walkthrough of diagnosing any outage, from DNS failures to expired certificates.

Elevated load on model-serving infrastructure during high-demand periods, which can cause slow responses or failed generations rather than a full outage

API-specific incidents that affect apps and tools built on Claude (including IDEs and CLI tools) without necessarily affecting the claude.ai web app

Authentication or account-sync issues that block sign-in while the underlying service is otherwise healthy

Regional connectivity or routing issues that make claude.ai unreachable from specific networks or countries

Questions people ask during an outage

How can I check right now if Claude (Anthropic) is down or if it's just me?

The live probe run on this page tests claude.ai from a broad sample of HostTracker's 300+-location monitoring network - many independent networks at the same moment, rather than just your own connection. If every location fails to reach it, the outage is real and affects everyone; if only a few locations fail while most load normally, the problem is local to those regions or networks rather than Claude (Anthropic) being fully down. A single refresh from your own browser can never make that distinction, because it only ever tests from one vantage point on one network.

Can I get alerted automatically the next time Claude (Anthropic) goes down?

Yes. HostTracker lets you add any URL - including third-party services you depend on, not just your own website - as a monitored target, and notifies you automatically the moment it becomes unreachable. Before sending an alert, HostTracker re-verifies a failure from multiple locations in its 300+-location network, so you're notified about real, confirmed outages rather than a single location's momentary blip. The free plan checks two monitors every 30 minutes indefinitely at no cost; paid plans check as often as once a minute, with alerts available through SMS, email, voice call, and several messenger apps.

Is there a difference between claude.ai being down and the Claude API being down?

Yes, and it matters for diagnosing the problem correctly. Claude.ai (the consumer web chat), the Claude API (used by third-party apps and integrations), and Claude Code (the developer CLI) run on related infrastructure but can experience independent incidents - the API serving production traffic for other companies' products can be degraded while the consumer web app loads fine, or the reverse. Anthropic's official status page typically breaks incidents down by component for exactly this reason. If you're building on the API and claude.ai looks fine in your browser, that doesn't confirm the API itself is healthy - check the specific component you depend on.

What should I do if Claude is slow but not fully down?

Slow or partial responses (a reply that starts generating and then stalls, or takes far longer than usual) usually indicate high load on model-serving capacity rather than a full outage, and often resolve within minutes without any action needed. If it persists for an extended period, check Anthropic's official status page for an acknowledged incident, and confirm via an independent multi-location check whether the slowness is specific to your network path or affects the service broadly - a local network or DNS issue can also masquerade as "Claude is slow."
