What to do when Fireworks AI is down
Switch to a sibling inference gateway
Fireworks runs open and open-weight models, so the same checkpoint almost always exists on another host with separate infrastructure. Together AI and Groq both serve overlapping catalogs (DeepSeek, Llama, Qwen) through OpenAI-compatible APIs, so failover is often just a base-URL and key swap. Compare options on TensorFeed's inference providers list.
Route across providers automatically
If you do not want to manage one fallback host yourself, OpenRouter sits in front of many providers and can route a single model request to whichever backend is healthy, which absorbs a Fireworks-only incident without code changes. HuggingFace Inference is another route to many of the same open-weight models when you need a different path entirely.
Get notified when status changes
Instead of refreshing a status page during an incident, subscribe to alerts and get pinged the moment Fireworks flips to degraded or down (and again when it recovers). You can also watch the full multi-provider board to see whether the problem is Fireworks alone or a broader upstream model outage hitting several gateways at once.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Fireworks AI down right now?
The live indicator at the top of this page is the answer. If it reads operational, the Fireworks inference API is serving requests normally. Amber means degraded (slower responses or intermittent errors on some models), and red means an active outage. We refresh the signal every couple of minutes against Fireworks's own status data, so read the dot first, then the heading.
How do I check Fireworks AI status?
Fireworks publishes an official status page at https://status.fireworks.ai with component-level and per-model uptime. This page mirrors that signal so you can check Fireworks alongside every other major AI provider in one place. If your own requests are failing but both pages show green, the issue is more likely your API key, billing, rate limits, or a specific model deployment than a platform-wide outage.
What should I do when Fireworks AI is down?
Because Fireworks hosts mostly open and open-weight models, the same model usually runs elsewhere on separate infrastructure. Point your OpenAI-compatible client at a sibling inference host like Together AI or Groq, or use OpenRouter to fail over across providers automatically. Add retry-with-backoff and a fallback base URL in your client so a single provider incident does not take down your app.
How often does Fireworks AI go down, and is it reliable?
Fireworks is a production inference platform used by businesses, and full platform-wide outages are uncommon. The more typical disruptions are partial: a specific model becoming temporarily unavailable, elevated latency under load, or capacity pressure on a popular new model right after launch. Treat per-model availability separately from the overall platform, which is why component-level status pages matter more than a single up or down flag.
Which models and services does Fireworks AI run?
Fireworks serves open and open-weight LLMs (DeepSeek V3 and R1, Llama 3.x, Qwen, OpenAI GPT OSS), vision-language models, FLUX image generation, Whisper speech-to-text, and text embeddings, all through an OpenAI-compatible API. It also offers fine-tuning, function calling, structured JSON output, and dedicated GPU deployments. Note: Fireworks AI (fireworks.ai, the inference company) is unrelated to Fireworks the design tool or any consumer app of the same name.
Where can I see Fireworks AI incident history?
The official status page at https://status.fireworks.ai keeps a log of past incidents and maintenance windows with timestamps and resolution notes, which is the authoritative record. For real-time alerts plus cross-provider context (so you can tell a Fireworks-only incident from a broader upstream model issue), use this page and TensorFeed's status hub, which tracks Fireworks next to its sibling inference gateways.
