Imitation of life
Claude.ai on the desktop even loads and accepts prompts, but it doesn’t seem to process them. We get “The service is temporarily busy. Please try again soon.”
There are currently no updates on Claude’s status page. Of course, if you’re desperate for your AI fix, you can always turn to Google Gemini or ChatGPT, both of which seem functional right now.
A tale of two reports
While Downdetector shows a quick recovery, Claude’s status page tells a different story: “Claude.ai and Platform are down. Login to Claude Code not working via Claude.ai.”
Why is the connection disconnected? Well, Downdetector, which is based on user reports, can lag behind real-time, on-the-ground reality. In this case, we must assume that Anthropic knows more about Claude.ai’s status than Downdetector.
There is an interruption
If you visit Claude.ai, it may appear that Claude is functional. The page loads, but then many of the functions are offline or give errors. When we tried to enter a prompt on a free account, Claude told us that we had used our prompt complement for the day, even though we hadn’t used it at all today.
We also tried logging into a Pro account, but when we went to enter the verification code that Claude sent us, the website crashed.
Anthropic’s status page for Claude specifically highlights problems logging into the platform, and my colleague and I see that on mobile. Login fails regardless of selection and shows this error at the top.
