Is Claude down?
Couldn’t reach the Claude status page

What to do if Claude is down
- claude.ai, the Claude API and Claude Code are listed separately; one can be down while the others work.
- Retry with exponential backoff on 429 and 5xx errors instead of hammering the API; most short incidents clear within minutes.
- Keep a fallback model from another provider (directly or through a router such as OpenRouter) behind a feature flag, so you can switch without a deploy.
- Check the components list: the chat app, the API and single features (images, audio, fine-tuning) often fail separately.
- Queue non-urgent jobs (batch summaries, embeddings) and replay them once the status page is green again.

FAQ
Is Claude down right now?+
The official status page didn’t answer when this page was last built. The status box at the top re-checks while you have it open, or open https://status.claude.com directly.
Where is the official Claude status page?+
https://status.claude.com. It’s run by Claude itself and lists each component, open incidents and past incidents (it also covers Anthropic, Claude API, Claude Code). DevHunt reads its public status API; nothing here is added or guessed.
Claude isn’t working for me, but the status page says it’s up. Why?+
Status pages update a few minutes after a problem starts, and small or regional issues sometimes never show up. Check your own network, VPN and API keys, try another browser or region, and look at the components list: one feature can fail while the rest works.
What can I use while Claude is down?+
Common alternatives listed on DevHunt are linked below this FAQ. For a long outage, switch the part of your workflow that depends on Claude; for short ones, retrying with backoff is usually enough.
Does DevHunt collect outage reports from users?+
No. This page only shows what Claude’s official status page says, with the time it was checked. It does not count user reports, so it can lag behind an outage that Claude hasn’t acknowledged yet.
