Claude is still struggling to keep up with vibe coders.
Anthropic's popular Claude AI chatbot and Claude Code tool weren't working for many users on Tuesday morning.
Claude's system status page listed a "major outage" for the Claude website and Claude Code. Thousands of users reported issues accessing Claude on the third-party outage-tracker DownDetector.
Claude Cowork and the Claude API were both listed as operational.
Roughly 90 minutes later, Anthropic said it had "applied a fix."
"We have applied a fix and success rates have returned to normal," the company said in its status dashboard. "We are continuing to monitor closely to ensure there are no further issues."
This is far from the first time Claude has experienced an outage. Thousands of users reported issues accessing the service on Monday, and Anthropic's status dashboard shows various issues in recent weeks.
There's been a surge in interest in Claude, with downloads of the Claude app briefly surpassing ChatGPT in early March on Apple's App Store.
Anthropic didn't immediately respond to a request for additional comment on the incident.
This is a developing story.
