Common reasons Perplexity looks down when it isn't

What to check before blaming Perplexity

  1. Run a plain search rather than a Pro one — if it answers, the service is up and you hit a quota.
  2. Reload the page or start a new thread; long threads occasionally wedge.
  3. Try a browser without extensions to rule out local interference.
  4. Check your subscription is still active if Pro features vanished.

Perplexity status — frequently asked

Is Perplexity down right now?

Perplexity is up and responding in 23 ms. That reading is from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, 82 seconds ago.

Is it Perplexity that's down, or is it my internet connection?

It can be either — that's the hard part. The status on this page is measured from itsnotyou's monitoring servers, so Perplexity can look healthy here while your own connection is the real problem. The itsnotyou test checks both at once and returns a single verdict in about 10 seconds.

Why is Perplexity loading slowly?

A slow Perplexity usually comes down to one of two things: Perplexity's own servers are responding slowly — itsnotyou measures time to first byte, and anything over 1500 ms is flagged as slow — or your local connection is the bottleneck. Running the test tells the two apart.

How often is Perplexity's status checked?

Perplexity is probed every few minutes, around the clock, from itsnotyou's monitoring servers. The verdict and the 24-hour response-time history on this page update automatically.
