Vendor status pages say “all systems operational”. Developers say otherwise. api.gripe tracks uptime, latency and real developer sentiment for the APIs you build on — so you know which ones actually hate you back.
Be first to see the scores when we launch. No spam — one email at launch.
We'll notify you when the scores go live.
Status pages tell you what vendors want you to hear. We measure the rest.
Uptime and latency checks on the public APIs developers depend on, around the clock — not just when their status page admits something is wrong.
Real developer sentiment from across X, GitHub and Discord — the outages, silent breaking changes and support horror stories that never make the changelog.
One honest reliability score per API, blending hard uptime data with how developers actually feel — so you pick vendors with your eyes open.
Every category gets a score. Tell us above which ones burn you most.
Checkout, subscriptions and payouts — where a bad API weekend costs real money.

Model endpoints, embeddings and inference — rate limits, latency spikes and all.

Login, OAuth and session APIs — the front door your users judge you by.

Compute, storage and queues — the foundations everything else stands on.

The messaging APIs behind your notifications, OTPs and alerts.

Every vendor status page says “all systems operational” — usually right up until it doesn't. Meanwhile developers find out about outages from each other: a frustrated thread, a spike in error reports, a support ticket answered three days later.
api.gripe is the independent API reliability tracker: continuous uptime and latency monitoring plus real developer sentiment, rolled into one honest score per API. Before you build on an API — or after it pages you one too many times — check the gripe.
