What to do if Vast.ai is not working

  1. Check the status card at the top of this page. If Vast.ai reports a problem, it is on their side: wait, or launch somewhere else.
  2. If an instance will not start, try another region or another GPU type: "no capacity" errors usually mean that type is sold out, not an outage.
  3. If you cannot connect over SSH, check the instance is running, the port and IP are right, and your key is the one the instance was created with.
  4. Check your account balance or billing limit: many GPU clouds stop or refuse instances when credit runs out.
  5. Save your work to persistent storage or a volume, so a failed or preempted instance does not lose it.
  6. Look at the reports on this page: if other people report the same problem with Vast.ai at the same time, it is not just you.

Vast.ai outage questions

Is Vast.ai down right now?

Vast.ai has no status page we can read, so the card at the top of this page times Vast.ai's API from our servers every few minutes, and shows reports from other developers in the last 24 hours.

When was Vast.ai last down?

We have not recorded a Vast.ai outage or degraded period since we started tracking it on Oct 7, 2026. Its uptime and the full history are on the Vast.ai outage history page.

Why can't I start an instance on Vast.ai?

The most common cause is no free capacity for that GPU type in that region, which is not an outage. Try another region or GPU type, and check your account balance. If the status above shows an incident, wait for it to clear.

What can I use while Vast.ai is down?

Other gpu clouds include RunPod, Lambda, CoreWeave, Paperspace, Crusoe Cloud, Hyperstack. Each has its own status page on this site, so you can check one is working before you switch.

Where is Vast.ai's official status page?

Vast.ai's official status page is https://status.vast.ai. The check at the top of this page is our own, timed against the API.
