Common failure patterns and how to diagnose them

Provider details

Chai (Chai Research) is a mobile-first character-chat app where users create and swipe through community bots. The app runs on Chai's own models, is free with ads and a daily message cap, and there is no full web client, so incidents are almost always reported from the iOS/Android apps.

Community channels
What we monitor
Chai mobile apps — Primary and practically only client
Chat backend — Bot replies
Bot discovery feed — Swipe/search of community bots
Operator notes
  • DownForAI can only probe the chai-research.com marketing site, not the app backend — community reports are the primary signal for Chai.

How we monitor

DownForAI checks monitored AI service surfaces on a rotating schedule, roughly every 75 minutes per surface, from a single centralized probe infrastructure. For services with an official machine-readable status page, we use that official status signal when available. For other services, we perform a basic public-surface check. Some services block datacenter probes; in those cases we mark them as “Monitoring limited” instead of treating a failed probe as a confirmed outage. Status is classified as Operational, Degraded, or Outage. Network latency (check response time) measures how long the monitored endpoint took to respond to our probe — it is not model inference speed, time-to-first-token, or tokens-per-second performance. We are independent of all providers listed and receive no compensation to report any particular status.
