Is Vercel down right now?

Checking Vercel…

Reading the latest checks from UptimeTea monitors…

Vercel hosts and deploys frontend apps, including most Next.js sites. When it is down, deploys stall and sites served from its edge can fail to load.

What we are checking

These are real UptimeTea monitors, not a scrape of Vercel's own status page. Each is requested every minute from several locations, and a failure is re-verified from an independent location before it counts.

Vercel.com

Vercel's website and dashboard, where teams manage projects and deployments.

Vercel edge (nextjs.org)

nextjs.org is served from Vercel's edge network like a customer site. A good proxy for whether hosted sites are loading.

Second opinion: Vercel's official status page. Vendors update it after they confirm an incident, which is usually minutes after it starts.

What to do when Vercel is down

  1. 1

    Hold your deploys

    If builds are degraded, a new deploy may hang or fail halfway. Your last good deployment keeps serving. Wait for the incident to clear before pushing more.

  2. 2

    Check whether it is your function

    If the monitors above are green, look at your own function logs. Timeouts and cold starts in serverless functions look like an outage from the outside.

  3. 3

    Know how to roll back

    Vercel keeps previous deployments. Promoting a known good one is faster than debugging a broken build during an incident.

Frequently asked questions

How do you know if Vercel is down?
UptimeTea monitors load vercel.com and nextjs.org every minute from several locations. nextjs.org runs on Vercel's edge, so a widespread hosting problem shows up here quickly.
My Vercel site shows an error. Is Vercel down?
Not necessarily. A 500 from a serverless function is usually your code or an upstream API. A Vercel-branded error page for every route is more likely a platform problem. Compare with the monitors above.
Does a Vercel outage stop sites that are already deployed?
Not always. Build and dashboard incidents often leave live sites untouched. Edge network incidents are the ones that take sites offline.
Can I get an alert when my Vercel site goes down?
Yes. Monitor your own site in UptimeTea and you get an email, SMS or call the moment it fails. The free plan includes 50 monitors.
