Is Perplexity experiencing a global outage?

Our probe checks perplexity.ai from a single serverless region. If the service is up in our check but down for you, the issue may be regional — related to your ISP, local DNS, or geographic routing.

How can I monitor Perplexity uptime?

WebsiteDown Pro checks perplexity.ai every 60 seconds and sends alerts via email, Telegram, or Discord within 1–5 minutes of a detected outage. Free users can check manually anytime.

What does Perplexity's response time mean?

Response time measures how long perplexity.ai takes to reply to our server-side probe. Under 500ms is good, 500–1000ms is elevated, and over 1000ms suggests degraded performance. Your experience may differ based on your location and ISP.

Is the Perplexity API also affected?

API outages and web interface outages don't always coincide. If Perplexity's website is down, the API may still be operational (or vice versa). Check the status page for service-specific details.

Are AI responses slower during a Perplexity outage?
