OpenAI’s ChatGPT service has shown strong stability in August 2026, with only brief elevated-error incidents on August 11 and 13 that resolved within hours and did not qualify as full outage days. High component uptime above 99.6 percent, rapid mitigation of issues affecting free-tier conversations and specific APIs, and infrastructure scaling improvements have anchored trader sentiment toward fewer than three qualifying outage days for the month. Earlier July disruptions, including worldwide login and image-generation failures, appear contained by recent operational enhancements. Traders monitor OpenAI’s status page closely for any capacity strain or model-update side effects that could trigger additional incidents before month-end.

ChatGPT will be considered to have experienced a qualifying incident on the specified day if the OpenAI Status Page for ChatGPT (status.openai.com) displays that day’s status box as a shade of red indicating Partial/Full Outage once it is finalized. (green indicates "No incidents", yellow indicates "Degraded performance"). A day will be considered finalized once the following day’s status box is added on the Status Page.
Only incidents listing ChatGPT under 'Affected components' will be considered. Incidents labeled as affecting 'APIs,' 'Codex,' 'FedRamp,' or 'Ads Platform,' but not ChatGPT, will have no bearing on the resolution of this market.
This market will remain open until the specified day’s status box is finalized and all incidents that began during the specified date have been resolved. Revisions that change an incident’s impact classification to or from 'Partial/Full Outage' will be considered if the revision is published before the specified day’s status box is finalized or before all incidents that began during the specified date have been resolved.
This market will resolve once the specified day’s status box is finalized, provided no incident that began during the specified date is ongoing. In case of an ongoing incident the market will remain open until the incident is marked as “Resolved” and all relevant data has been released. If the incident in question is not resolved or all relevant data has not been released by the end of the seventh day after the specified date, this market will resolve based on the data available at that time.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official system status information published by OpenAI on status.openai.com; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
