Claude Seems Down

Throwing "Authentication service was unavailable.", no updates on their status page, but there are on downdetector

Comments

Seeing the same. Logging out of the desktop app and attempting to log back in just results in a reset of the authentication flow.

Large volume of user generated reports

I'm sorry, but why is this on the front page with 2 up votes? Do we really need to be alerted every time the Claude API responds with an error?
bossyTeacher•15m ago
It's not just Claude API. See: "We are investigating reports of degraded performance affecting claude.ai, platform.claude.com, the Claude API, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork.". Seems pretty big to me.

It's software used by many here so of course you will hear about Claude downtime here.

Yea bc what are we supposed to do with ourselves now.
curious_cat_163•18m ago
Looks like their auth is broken. Do they ever publish postmortems?
