Anthropic risk in the next 24 hours

StatusBird's stack risk model puts the chance of any Anthropic degradation in the next 24 hours at 4% (normal) and the chance of a major or critical outage at 0% (normal). It is scored every 10 minutes from four inputs: how often Anthropic has had an episode over the last 180 days, whether it has had one in the last 24 hours or 7 days, how often its degradations turn into major outages, and whether the infrastructure it runs on is having trouble right now.

• 3 degraded-or-worse episodes in the last 180 days
• an episode started in the last 24 hours; incidents cluster
• no major outages in the last 180 days

About Anthropic

Model vendor. StatusBird's own AI-assisted features depend on Anthropic; the rest are monitored because PositionBird and ShopBird, and many merchants' tools, call them.

StatusBird monitors Anthropic every 2 minutes, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When an outage or degradation is detected, StatusBird sends instant alerts so you can act before your customers notice. The 30-day uptime percentage and incident history above reflect live data from our monitoring network.

StatusBird's own AI-assisted features call a model vendor, so it publishes what it does when one is unavailable: what happens when an AI vendor is down. Alerts are not affected: they never depend on a model.

Anthropic last five incidents

Every non-operational episode StatusBird measured in the last 90 days, newest first, labelled by the worst status reached. The availability figures above count major and critical outages only.

5 episodes in total over the last 90 days, 0 of them major or critical.

"Every figure we publish comes from the same 2-minute checks that trigger our customers' alerts. We publish the data exactly as we measured it, and anyone is free to cite it."
