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

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.
