  1. resolvedAug 7, 2026, 02:51 UTC

    Today there was an issue with one of our GPU providers that caused it run at about 50% capacity. Requests above capacity return 503s, which we route to another, fallback provider. This fallback provider was not able to rise to the occasion and also returned 503s. In the very near future we will be onboarding additional providers to avoid these kinds of issues.

  2. monitoringAug 6, 2026, 21:08 UTC

    A burst of requests increased the failure rate. Both primary and secondary model providers failed to fulfill the requests at the time; we are root-causing the issue. We are continuing to monitor.
