- Check the status card at the top of this page. If AI21 Labs reports an incident, the errors are on their side.
- Retry failed requests with exponential backoff (for example 1, 2, 4, 8 seconds, with some random jitter). Short 500, 502, 503 and 529 errors often clear within minutes.
- A 429 error means a rate limit or quota, not an outage: check your usage limits and tier, and slow down or batch requests.
- A 401 or 403 error usually means the API key is wrong, revoked or out of credit: check the key and your billing page.
- Check the model name: retired or renamed models return errors that look like an outage.
- Keep a fallback: route to another provider or model while AI21 Labs is down (see the alternatives below), or use a router that switches automatically.
AI21 Labs outage questions
Is AI21 Labs down right now?
The card at the top of this page reads AI21 Labs's official status page live, and times AI21 Labs's API from our servers every few minutes. If the official page shows an incident, the problem is on AI21 Labs's side.
When was AI21 Labs last down?
We have not recorded an AI21 Labs outage or degraded period since we started tracking it on Oct 7, 2026. Its uptime and the full history are on the AI21 Labs outage history page.
Why does AI21 Labs return 500, 502 or 503 errors?
These are server-side errors: the request reached AI21 Labs but it could not answer. They usually come in bursts during incidents or heavy load. Retry with exponential backoff, and check the status above.
What does a 429 error from AI21 Labs mean?
429 means too many requests: you hit a rate limit or a usage quota. It is not an outage. Slow down, batch requests, or raise your limit in your AI21 Labs account.
