Summary
OpenRouter experienced two service disruptions on August 28, 2025. The chat API was inaccessible briefly around 12:29 PM but recovered quickly. A more significant 50-minute downtime occurred at 5:40 AM Eastern Time due to upstream database dependency issues in US East, which resolved automatically when the dependency stabilized. The company is working on improving redundancy.
