Questions
What does this page check?
Glide's monitor asks OpenRouter for its listing of the model that Glide uses for photo carb estimates. This shows that the API answers and lists the model. The check sends no photo, so it does not show that an estimate works. It runs from the US, so a problem only in another region does not show here.
Up means that the server gave the expected answer within 1 minute. Down means that it failed at least two checks in a row. A check runs every 5 minutes from one location, North Virginia. The history counts each failed check as 5 minutes of downtime, so one failed check shows there as an outage. These checks began on November 8, 2026.
What stops in Glide when OpenRouter is down?
Photo carb estimates fail, and the app asks you to enter the carbs manually. New meals can wait for a food group in My Lab. Readings, alerts and the nighttime call do not use OpenRouter.
Is Glide itself down?
See the Glide server status.
What does Glide cost?
Glide is free: readings, the chart, followers, alerts, the nighttime call, the report and the Apple Watch app. Glide Premium ($4.99 a month or $39.99 a year, two weeks free) adds photo carb counting and My Lab's food groups.
