Frequently asked
Is GitHub down right now?+
Right now, GitHub appears to be operational. GitHub looks healthy. The official status page reports all systems operational and our independent checks are passing.
How can I tell if it's GitHub or my own connection?+
AIDownCheck runs an independent reachability check from our own servers, separate from GitHub's official status page. If our check passes but you still can't connect, the problem is more likely local — try a different network, clear your cookies, disable VPN/extensions, or use a different browser. If our check is failing too, it's more likely GitHub's side.
Why is GitHub slow or not working?+
Common causes are an upstream provider incident, API rate limits during peak demand, a regional CDN issue, or maintenance. GitHub is currently operational. We show the official status, our independent check, and a confidence level so you can see which signals point to a real problem.
What can I use while GitHub is down?+
Good alternatives include Dropbox, Zoom. We track their live status too, so you can switch to one that's currently operational.
Where is GitHub's official status page?+
GitHub's official status page is at https://www.githubstatus.com. AIDownCheck reads it automatically and combines it with our own checks — so you get the answer without juggling tabs.
