Why are my requests slow or timing out?

Last updated: November 3, 2026

  1. Check system status for ongoing incidents.

  2. Retry with exponential backoff. If you use a TypeSafe SDK, it retries automatically, so check its retry settings before adding your own.

If requests stay slow, submit a support request with your organization ID, request IDs, and the time and time zone of the slow requests.

Reduce latency

If your workflow makes several calls in a row, put all your questions in one request. Questions in a single request are evaluated in parallel, so adding more usually has little effect on response time. See Speculative fan-out in the documentation.
