Our regional reading
This is our own reading from outside, shown beside the vendor's statement. It is not counted as a separate outage.
Partially degradedchecked moments ago
Anthropic is answering our probes, but its sign-in surface is running at least 3.6x its 7-day median from US-Central. Everything else we check answered at its usual speed.
As of Oct 19, 2026, 8:55 PM UTC, RealUptime's checks of Anthropic passed in all 10 regions that returned a reading.

These are Anthropic's components, named and scored by Anthropic. We do not map them onto the functions we check above, because we have no way to know which of their components our checks touch. Two lists, side by side, neither one rewriting the other.
This is Anthropic's own claim about their service, shown separately from what we measured. We never change our own numbers based on what a vendor reports, and this reading never changes theirs. Read both.
Anthropic response time, by region
Check your own site while you wait on Anthropic
Watching an outage above does not tell you whether your own connection or site is also having a problem. Enter your own URL for one live check, right now, no signup. This checks the site you enter, not Anthropic. It cannot diagnose Anthropic's own systems.
What we measured, function by function
Anthropic answers on more than one surface, and they can fail apart. Each row is one surface, checked from the same regions. The verdict above follows the auth row, because that is the surface we treat as this service's own; a failure on any other row is a partial outage, not a full one.

These are unverified reports from people using Anthropic, counted separately from what our own probes measure. Anyone can file one, no account is needed, and the region on a report is chosen by the person filing it. We never open, extend or close an outage in our record based on report volume: only our own measurements do that. We started counting reports for Anthropic on August 28, 2026.
Recent probe events
check entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works
We have been measuring Anthropic since August 20, 2026. We show nothing from before that date, and we never add an outage we did not observe ourselves, from any source.

Per-model status
What we check
What our check can and cannot see
A pass means the service's servers answered with the sign-in refusal they give any request that is not signed in. It does not show that sign-in works or that anything behind the sign-in wall responds.
