| UTC | What failed | Regions | Duration | Failed probes | Verdict | Error |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16:20–16:20 | host probes | 3 of 4: Asia (Tokyo), South America (Santiago), US (Central) | <5 min | 3 | provider outage | timeout |
| 17:15–17:15 | host probes | 3 of 4: Asia (Tokyo), South America (Santiago), US (Central) | <5 min | 3 | provider outage | timeout |
| 20:20–20:21 | host probes | 4 of 4: Asia (Tokyo), Europe (Germany), South America (Santiago), US (Central) | <5 min | 4 | provider outage | timeout |
Was the doubao API down on November 8, 2026?
Yes, measured. 2 outage(s) attributed to doubao: host probes failed from up to 3 of 4 regions at once while no other provider was failing, first at 00:15 UTC, at least 10 minutes observed in total.
| UTC | What failed | Regions | Duration | Failed probes | Verdict | Error |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 00:15–00:20 | host probes | 2 of 4: South America (São Paulo), US (Central) | ≥5 min | 2 | provider outage | timeout |
| 03:30–03:35 | host probes | 3 of 4: Europe (Germany), South America (São Paulo), US (Central) | ≥5 min | 3 | provider outage | timeout |
Was the Claude API (Anthropic) down on November 8, 2026?
Not by our measurements. No failure of Anthropic was seen from two or more regions at once. Anthropic’s own status page opened 1 entry that day (self-reported, listed below).

Current Claude API (Anthropic) status
Was the OpenAI API down on November 8, 2026?
Not by our measurements. No failure of OpenAI was seen from two or more regions at once; 1 single-region failure(s) are not called an outage. OpenAI’s own status page opened 1 entry that day (self-reported, listed below).
Self-reported on OpenAI’s status page, not verified by our probes:
- minor Elevated errors with image generation · resolved Nov 8, 17:00 UTC
22 single-region failure(s) were also recorded that day (sambanova 4, google 3, sensenova 3, iflytek 3, stepfun 2, doubao 2, tencent-tokenhub 1, openai 1, featherless 1, baichuan 1). A failure seen from one region cannot be separated from a problem on that network path, so none of them is called an outage.
How is an outage told apart from a network problem?
Each provider is probed every five minutes from 4 independent regions. A failure is attributed to the provider only when it is seen from two or more regions at once and no other provider fails in the same minutes; a failure shared with other providers has a cause above all of them and is not blamed on anyone. Durations are lower bounds: we see the first and last failed probe, not the real start and end. Status-page entries are the provider’s own words, shown next to the measurement, not instead of it.
