Are you having problems?
Tell us what you're seeing. We don't store your IP — just a daily-salted hash to rate-limit duplicates.
Diagnose your own connection
Outages can also be a local issue. Try these tools against the service hostname:
- DNS Checker · does the domain resolve from your side?
- HTTP Headers · what's the server returning right now?
- SSL Checker · cert valid? handshake OK?
- DNS Propagation · are 12 resolvers agreeing on the same IP?
- Full audit · everything at once.
Frequently asked — Perplexity
Is Perplexity down right now?
No — based on our last check, Perplexity is responding normally. No user reports of issues in the last hour either.
When was Perplexity last down?
We haven't recorded an outage for Perplexity in our rolling 14-day window. That doesn't mean it never went down — only that our probes haven't caught one.
Why is Perplexity slow or broken for me but working for others?
Three common causes. (1) Your ISP's DNS hasn't refreshed — try Perplexity via /dns-propagation. (2) A CDN edge near you is degraded while other regions are fine. (3) Your firewall or VPN is mangling the connection. Run the /audit on the hostname and you'll see whether DNS, TLS, and HTTP all look healthy from our side.
How is this page different from Perplexity's official status page?
Perplexity's own status page is what their engineers say — accurate but often lagging real-world impact by 5–30 minutes. We probe their public endpoint every 5 minutes from outside their network and aggregate user reports, so we usually surface issues before the official page updates.
Where can I report Perplexity being down?
Use the "Are you having problems?" form above. We don't store your IP — just a daily-salted hash that lets us rate-limit duplicates. Reports factor into the live count immediately.
