Checking…

Asking our servers…

If Character.AI answers our servers but not you, your network is the problem. Teal VPN sends you through ours: Pro from $3 a month, 30‑day money‑back.Get Teal VPN

“Answered” means Character.AI’s servers replied to our request, including with a bot wall. It proves the service is up and reachable, not that every feature works. Nothing about you is sent or stored.

What to do if Character.AI is down for you

Our check covers the website and the API. If it answers from every country and still fails for you, work through these in order.

  1. Check the status page

    AI services publish incidents per product: the chat app, the API, voice. We quote their own indicator above.

  2. Reload once

    A stuck “thinking” screen is usually one request lost during a load spike. Reload the page and send the message again.

  3. Try again in a few minutes

    Capacity incidents come and go in waves; the next attempt often works.

Questions

Is Character.AI down right now?

The card at the top shows it live: whether Character.AI answered our servers in 14 countries within the last five minutes. If it answered everywhere and still fails for you, the problem is between you and Character.AI: your network, your provider, or the app.

It loads but answers nothing. Down or busy?

Busy. The site answering our servers means the service is up; a silent chat during a spike is capacity, and the status page says “degraded” when it is.

What does this check prove, and what does it not?

We fetch character.ai from Teal VPN servers in 14 countries every five minutes. An answer proves Character.AI’s servers are up and reachable from the open internet. It does not prove every feature works: sign-in, uploads or payments can fail while the site answers, which is why we also show the link to the service’s own status page.

Why would a service work from your servers but not for me?

Because the break is on your side of the route: a Wi-Fi that filters the service, a provider with a bad path to it, a DNS resolver that fails, or an app that needs an update. Mobile data instead of Wi-Fi is the quickest test. A VPN sends your traffic through one of our servers instead, which is the same path our check uses.
