Is Pravatar (i.pravatar.cc) down?

UP right now — answered HTTP 200 in 89 ms.

Last checked 2026-09-11T19:30:49Z · checked every hour · OK-rate 24h: 100% · 7d: 97.7% · raw JSON · Atom feed of its down/recovered events

Context: CC0 real-photo avatars from a fixed pool of exactly 70 photos (?img=71 is a 404; max size 1000); the same ?u= id always maps to the same photo, but distinct ids beyond the pool share faces.

What we check: GET https://i.pravatar.cc/150 — a plain, keyless request from Cloudflare's network with an honest bot UA, exactly what a tutorial curl or an <img> tag experiences. OK = HTTP 2xx/3xx within 8s. No retries, no cookies, no API keys.

README badge

Does your project's test suite or tutorial depend on i.pravatar.cc? Embed a live status badge — it re-renders from our latest check (cached 5 min):

<!-- Markdown -->
[![i.pravatar.cc status](https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/pravatar/badge.svg)](https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/pravatar)

<!-- HTML -->
<a href="https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/pravatar"><img src="https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/status/pravatar/badge.svg" alt="i.pravatar.cc status"></a>

Green = answering plain GETs, red = network-dead, amber = answering but with an error status. Every tracked service has one; there's also a summary badge for all 71.

Get pinged when it goes down

Subscribe any webhook URL — no account needed. One message when i.pravatar.cc goes down, one when it recovers (debounced: two consecutive hourly checks must agree, so a single blip never fires). Slack and Discord incoming-webhook URLs get a formatted message; anything else gets an HMAC-signed JSON POST.

Or from a terminal / CI script:

curl -X POST https://mockbird.mockbird.workers.dev/api/status/watch \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"service": "pravatar", "url": "https://hooks.slack.com/services/T000/B000/XXXX"}'

Use "service": "*" to watch all 71 tracked services at once. The response includes an unsubscribe curl; 5 consecutive failed deliveries auto-unsubscribe. No webhook? Omit "url" to get a pollable subscription instead — GET the returned poll URL anytime for the transitions since your last poll. Full API details →

The same checker can watch your own URL: POST /api/status/monitor {"url": "https://api.example.com/health", "notify": "<webhook>"} — every 30 minutes, alert on down + recovery, free, no account. Monitor API →
