We're excited to announce a new way to interact with IsDown: the MCP Server. Now you can query your monitoring data directly from AI assistants like Claude.

We recently launched monitor groups, making it easier to organize monitors on your boards and status pages. Now that same functionality is available in the StatusGator API, so you can manage monitor groups programmatically. The API now supports listing, creating, updating, and deleting monitor groups on a board. You can also assign or remove monitors from groups when creating or updating a monitor.

At the start of 2026, we’re sharing our final quarterly product update for 2025, followed by a recap of the year’s most important StatusHub improvements.

This report covers the operational status of major AI systems during December 2025, including Anthropic, Cohere, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, Groq Cloud, OpenAI, Perplexity, Replicate, and xAI. The data encompasses official incidents reported by providers and monitoring insights from IsDown's detection system.

We’ve added a new enhancement to the StatusGator API that makes it faster and easier to identify service issues in real time: status-based filtering for monitors and components.

This report presents incident data from major cloud providers for December 2025, covering AWS, Azure DevOps, DigitalOcean, Fly.io, Heroku, Linode, Netlify, Railway, Render, and Vercel. The data includes both officially reported incidents from provider status pages and unconfirmed incidents detected by IsDown's monitoring system.

This is one of our most requested features – and it’s finally here. Many of you told us that as your monitoring setup grows, it becomes harder to manage long lists of services and harder for users to quickly understand what’s actually affected during an incident. Monitor groups were built to solve exactly that. Now you can organize related monitors together and present a clearer, more structured view of system health everywhere StatusGator is used.

On January 16, 2026 the social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter) and its AI chatbot, Grok, experienced a widespread outage affecting users around the world. This incident underscores why proactive outage detection matters. StatusGator’s Early Warning Signals spotted meaningful signs of disruption long before any official provider acknowledgment appeared publicly and helped organizations prepare or respond faster than waiting for status pages or press releases.

We’ve added new organization-level security and privacy controls to give admins more control over how their StatusGator account is accessed and how data is used. You can now manage these settings from Organization settings → Security options.

We’ve added new API capabilities that give you more control over your monitoring workflows – directly from code. You can now pause and resume website and ping monitors via the StatusGator API, exposing the same pause functionality that’s available in the UI.
