Switch
Same thread, different model
Ask for a switch mid-conversation. The next reply comes from Claude or Gemini with every earlier message, file and instruction in hand.

Delayed Costs data in the Compliance APIminor · monitoring
We have implemented a mitigation, and delayed Costs data is now processing through the Compliance API. Some customers may continue to see incomplete Costs data while the backlog catches up. We expect this catch-up process to continue through Sunday, October 11. ChatGPT usage and API Platform requests remain unaffected. We are monitoring recovery.

What an outage usually looks like: replies hang or never arrive, "Something went wrong" on every message, login loops or a blank page. If that is you and the answer above says up, it is often local. If the answer says down, the rest of this page is what to do about it.
The next five minutes
What to do while ChatGPT is down
- 1
Check OpenAI's page yourself
The answer above is theirs. Open it for the incident detail and the estimated fix.
- 2
Rule out your end
Try another network, a private window, or the app instead of the site. A browser extension takes more chats down than most outages.
- 3
Do not retype the conversation
The context you built up is the expensive part. Keep the tab; paste the thread into another model only if you have to, and only the part that matters.
- 4
Or switch model and keep going
A Magai user asks for Claude or Gemini in the same thread. Nothing is retyped and nothing is lost; when ChatGPT is back, they switch back.

GeminiWhy Magai users do not have this page bookmarked
When ChatGPT goes down, the work does not.
Magai holds ChatGPT's models and dozens of others in one workspace. The conversation belongs to you, not to a vendor: every model you switch to reads the whole thread so far, so an outage at OpenAI is a model change, not a lost afternoon.
Memory
Your memory stays yours
Custom context, saved prompts and agents live in your workspace, not inside one vendor's product. They work with whichever model is answering.
Auto
Or let Auto choose
Auto routes each prompt to the model best placed to answer it. A model that is failing is a model it stops choosing.
Who to switch to when ChatGPT is out
- Claude for writing and careful reasoning
- Gemini for long documents and code
- Grok for what happened in the last hour
- Every model in every plan
- Switch mid-thread, keep the context
- Never used to train a model

ChatGPT outages, answered
The answer at the top of this page is OpenAI's own, updated every minute. If it says operational and ChatGPT is failing for you, the problem is more likely local: a network, an extension, or a regional issue not yet posted.
This page reads the vendor's own public status page once a minute and repeats what it says. We do not probe the product ourselves and we never call it down on our own authority. When the status page cannot be reached, the page says it does not know.
Vendors update their status page after an incident is confirmed, which can be several minutes after the first users notice. It can also be your network, a browser extension, or a regional issue the vendor has not posted yet. Try another network, check the vendor's page directly, and if you are on Magai, switch model and carry on.
Switch models in the same conversation. The thread, the files, the instructions and the agent stay exactly where they were; the next reply comes from a different model. When ChatGPT is back, switch back. Nothing was lost in between.
No. In Magai the conversation belongs to you, not to the model. Every model you switch to reads the whole thread so far, so it picks up where the last one left off.
Usually not, since the same infrastructure is behind both. That is the point of having the other models in the same thread: switch to Claude or Gemini, keep working, and switch back when OpenAI recovers.

Never wait on OpenAI again
ChatGPT and dozens of other models in one thread. When one is down, the next reply comes from another, with everything you said still in hand.
