Is OpenRouter down, or is it just you?
Multiple independent check rounds from rimetry's monitoring infrastructure, run seconds apart.
Our checks reached OpenRouter successfully in every round of the last check cycle.
| Check round | Last check | Success rate (24h) | Avg response |
|---|---|---|---|
| Round 1 | Reachable | 100% | 545 ms |
| Round 2 | Reachable | 100% | 529 ms |
| Round 3 | Reachable | 100% | 444 ms |
| Round 4 | Reachable | 100% | 483 ms |
Based on 364 automated checks in the last 24 hours. Each round is an independent pass over the same endpoint, seconds apart — a single failing round is not an outage; repeated failures across rounds are.
What can be affected on OpenRouter?
These are the main OpenRouter functions that can experience separate issues.
- Web appCompare the web app with the mobile app — they can fail separately
- Login & authenticationTest signing in from a private browser window or another device
- Message generationStart a new conversation and retry — capacity errors are often transient
- APICheck whether the API behaves differently from the web interface
- Mobile appForce-close and reopen the app, then retry on mobile data
This list shows which parts can fail on their own. It does not mean any of them is failing right now — the live status above is the only claim we make about the current state.

About OpenRouter
OpenRouter functions as a unified gateway that routes requests to various large language models from different providers through a single standardized API. Developers use it to switch between models like Claude, Llama, and GPT without changing their codebase significantly. Reliability issues often stem from upstream provider failures, latency spikes in the routing layer, or balance deduction errors during the request lifecycle. Rimetry monitors the availability of this aggregation service to help developers determine if connectivity hurdles are localized to OpenRouter's routing infrastructure.
Problems with OpenRouter can affect web app, login & authentication, message generation independently.
OpenRouter (openrouter.ai) is a ai tools service monitored continuously by rimetry's automated checks. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds in repeated independent rounds to detect outages and latency spikes the moment they happen.
Right now OpenRouter is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 631 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to openrouter.ai are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like OpenRouter include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.

What is OpenRouter?
Unified API gateway across LLM providers.
OpenRouter is part of our AI Tools category. You can also review current trending outages across the internet.
Common issues
- · Requests hang or time out mid-response
- · Capacity or rate-limit errors
- · API errors while the web app works
- · Noticeably slower responses than usual
Similar patterns often surface across other ai tools providers — cross-check against the global outage map.
Troubleshooting
- · Compare the web app with the mobile app — they can fail separately
- · Test signing in from a private browser window or another device
- · Start a new conversation and retry — capacity errors are often transient
- · Check whether the API behaves differently from the web interface
- · Start a new conversation or session — long threads fail more often
- · Check whether the API and the web app behave differently; they can fail separately
- · Retry after a short pause: capacity errors are often transient
- · Confirm you're not hitting a plan rate limit or quota
- · Disable browser extensions that inject scripts into the page
- · Check OpenRouter's official social channels
