These are OpenAI's components, named and scored by OpenAI. 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 OpenAI'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.
OpenAI response time, by region
Check your own site while you wait on OpenAI
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 OpenAI. It cannot diagnose OpenAI's own systems.
What we measured, function by function
OpenAI 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 OpenAI, 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 have not received any reports for OpenAI yet, which is not evidence that nothing is wrong.
Recent probe events
check entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works
We have been measuring OpenAI 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.

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.
