What Happens When Your AI Goes Down?

On Friday afternoon, Claude started dropping in and out. The status page said operational. It wasn't. Our co-founder Alex Hagan hit record and captured the whole thing in real time, continuing to work in Virtually Myself® without interruption while Claude was unresponsive.

Virtually Myself® doesn't rely on any single AI model. If one provider goes down, the system automatically cascades to the next available model, keeping your context, chat history, and files intact. No switching platforms. No lost work. No waiting.

In this short video, Alex walks through exactly what happened, how the failover works, and why model independence matters, whether it's a few minutes of downtime or something more permanent.
