ChatGPT not working? Try this

  1. Check the status above. If it shows an outage, the problem is on OpenAI's side and you can only wait or switch tools.
  2. Reload the page or restart the app, then sign out and sign back in.
  3. Try a private browser window. If it works there, a browser extension or old cookies are the cause.
  4. Turn off your VPN or proxy. Some networks are blocked or rate limited.
  5. Check whether you've hit your plan's usage limit. That looks like an outage but only affects your account.

Questions people ask

Is ChatGPT down right now?

ChatGPT is up, but has a reported problem affecting some users or features right now. This page checks the official OpenAI status page every minute.

ChatGPT isn't working for me but the status says it's fine. Why?

Most "ChatGPT is down" moments that don't show up on the status page are local: an expired login, a browser extension or VPN blocking requests, a stale app version, or a usage limit on your plan. Sign out and back in, try a private window or the other app, and turn off your VPN.

How often does ChatGPT go down?

OpenAI reported 24 ChatGPT-related incidents in the last 30 days, typically lasting about 50 minutes. Most are partial: errors for some users or one feature, not a full outage.
