P50 = typical speed. P95 = worst case 95% of the time. Measured by Tickerr's independent inference checks. Requires ≥10 checks to display.
TTFT over 24 hours
ⓘ Authenticated streaming API calls via native fetch. TTFT = milliseconds from request start to first streamed token chunk. Throughput = output tokens ÷ generation time. Checks run from Vercel us-east-1. Independent of the provider's official status page.
Is Grok slow right now?
Grok is currently experiencing an outage or significant issues. Check the status section above for details.Last checked 2m ago.
HTTP endpoint response: 54ms (7-day p50: 194ms). This measures basic reachability, not model inference speed.
TTFT (time-to-first-token) is measured via authenticated streaming API calls every 5 minutes. Current values are compared against 7-day and 30-day rolling baselines. A minimum of 5 successful checks is required before classification. Methodology
Grok speed FAQ
Is Grok slow right now?
Grok is currently experiencing an outage or significant issues. Check the status section above for details.
Why is Grok so slow today?
Grok is currently experiencing an outage, not just slowness. Check the status section above for the latest incident details and expected resolution.
Is Grok down or just responding slowly?
Grok is currently down — not just slow. An active outage or major incident has been detected. Check the status section above for details.
How does Tickerr determine whether Grok is slow?
Tickerr sends authenticated API requests to Grok every 5 minutes and measures time-to-first-token (TTFT). Current TTFT is compared against a rolling 7-day and 30-day baseline. A model is classified as slow when its current p50 TTFT exceeds 2x its baseline, and severely slow at 3.5x. At least 5 successful checks are required before any classification is made.
What is normal response time for Grok?
Tickerr is still collecting baseline data for Grok. Normal response times will be available after sufficient monitoring history has accumulated.
Can one Grok model be slow while others are working normally?
Yes. Grok runs multiple models (e.g. grok-3-mini, grok-3), and each can have independent performance characteristics. Tickerr monitors each model separately. A slowdown on one model doesn't necessarily affect others.
Experimental capability checks
PUBLIC PILOTTickerr sends deterministic test prompts to Grok every hour and evaluates the output using code-based pass/fail checks. These results are informational onlyduring the pilot period and do not affect the tool's status verdict.
How Tickerr tests this
Every hour, Tickerr sends three deterministic test prompts to each monitored model via the provider's API. Each response is evaluated with a code-based pass/fail check — no subjective judgement.
- Instruction following: asks the model to reply with an exact word. Graded by exact string match.
- JSON schema: asks for a JSON object matching a fixed schema. Graded by parse + field validation.
- Tool call: asks the model to call a function with specific arguments. Graded by parsing the tool-call response.
Infrastructure errors (timeouts, rate limits, auth failures) are tracked separately and excluded from capability pass rates. Models that don't support tool calls are marked “not supported” rather than counted as failures. Full methodology

About Grok status
Grok is an AI assistant built by xAI, Elon Musk's AI company. Grok is available through X (formerly Twitter) Premium and Premium+ subscriptions. If Grok is down or not working, it typically shows as connection errors within the X app. Grok status is monitored every 5 minutes.
