Every elevator outage, on the public record.
Why it matters
Uptime shapes rent, tenant retention, and resale value. Until now, that data has lived in closed systems. This one is open.
How it works
Report an outage in fifteen seconds. See real-time status across public venues. Compare buildings and contractors with public scorecards.
Accessibility first
Built for the communities most affected when elevators fail. Screen reader optimized, keyboard navigable, one-handed mobile use.

Anyone can report an outage at any building. We also ingest real-time feeds from transit agencies worldwide (MTA, TfL, WMATA, MBTA, DB Germany, IDFM Paris) to seed the map with thousands of stations.

How do I report a broken elevator?+
Head to /report. It takes about fifteen seconds and no account is required.
Is this free?+
Yes, always free for riders. Elevator Uptime is operated as a public resource.
Where does the data come from?+
Real-time feeds from transit agencies worldwide including MTA, WMATA, TfL, MBTA, DB Germany, IDFM Paris, and more — plus crowdsourced reports from riders on the ground.
How is uptime calculated?+
The percentage of time elevators and escalators were operational over rolling 30- and 90-day windows. Confirmed outages count in full; unconfirmed reports count at 25% weight.
Is my report anonymous?+
Yes. No account, no email required. A short-lived device fingerprint (90 days) prevents spam and is then hashed.
Will you share my data?+
No. The site is non-commercial — no ads, no tracking beyond privacy-preserving analytics.
