The @agentmail team has been cooking. Tell your agent to 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕 𝚒𝚗𝚜𝚝𝚊𝚕𝚕 𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚗𝚝𝚖𝚊𝚒𝚕 – no signup, automatic setup and unified billing.

The two most popular http://eve.dev features so far have been: 1️⃣ The ease of use / filesystem API 2️⃣ Observability We’re doubling down on both!

Powerful building block for autonomous, self-optimizing websites and applications. Give agents the ability to set up and tune experiments with feature flags.

“Open-weight models ran 29% of gateway tokens, up from 11% in April”

Make the model a cog in a machine you own. ◾ AI SDK → open model API ◾ http://Eve.dev → open Agent API ◾ AI Gateway → open ZDR inference Startups and enterprises must own their data, evals, model choices, software layer. Don't outsource your brain.

Easy money (Swiss francs)

You can now import 💗Lovable apps to Vercel with zero config. Just import your Git repo. New Lovable apps are Nitro-backed, the standard runtime for the open web. Start in Lovable, grow on Vercel: AI development with no ceiling.

I love that @shadcn has managed to build the best UI infrastructure for agents and for humans. It's so so satisfying to play with the new typeset configurator.

Deep dive into how you can generate designs, prototypes, frontends, and full stack apps with your own design system in @v0. As models continue to get faster, v0 gets more magical.

It’s model release week. I suspect Meta Spark 1.1, Grok 4.5, and GLM 5.2 will significantly displace token market share. Most agentic tasks require reasonably high intelligence at fast speeds. It’s a good time to be using ▲ AI Gateway!

Congrats to bereket and the @better_auth team!

Heavenly victory 🇦🇷

Welcome @bekacru to Vercel. It's a privilege to join forces with Bereket and Better Auth to further our Open SDK vision. Developers deserve better auth, to serve humans and agents, built in the open and with taste. That's what Bereket has accomplished. Congrats! 🇪🇹🇺🇸

Update: 🇪🇸 ESP - 🇦🇷 ARG final. The legendary Spanish team will avenge team USA with a decisive defeat of 🇧🇪.

🆒 eve evals itself with 𝚎𝚟𝚎 𝚎𝚟𝚊𝚕. Web frameworks made testing an ecosystem choice. e.g.: React didn’t ship with a built-in testing solution. For agents, evals are essential… thus we ship 𝚎𝚟𝚎 𝚎𝚟𝚊𝚕 out of the box. For your agents and eve’s own evolution.

The ultimate test for coding AI: is software as a whole getting better? Are companies shipping faster? Do you now have apps and games you couldn't even dream of before? Is the software you're getting bug-free? For me: my own ability to influence my productivity has radically increased. I feel a level of agency and autonomy I never had before. I'm free to create and execute. I can communicate a vision with my colleagues instantly. Personal software is real and a big win, I have a bunch of web tools and macOS apps I wrote just for myself. For Vercel: it's been amazing to see our CTO @cramforce bring novel software to life with swaths of agents. Genuinely useful software that's having an impact industry-wide emerged nearly autonomously (http://chat-sdk.dev, http://just-bash.dev, http://deepsec.sh). That's just an example. Our PM team ships software and fixes bugs. Our junior engineers and interns ship quality software at scale. On a personal note, AI at my fingertips, as CLI or v0, allows me to keep up with all the product updates. I can build demos, apps and benchmarks on top of @vercel as new products go out. But the ultimate jury is that people should love our products, expand their usage, refer their friends and colleagues to the platform. So far that tracks well, and it's the main metric I watch (and obviously we take token costs seriously, just like any other infrastructure spend… there isn't and has never been a proclamation to "tokenmaxxx").

🇺🇸 USA - 🇦🇷 ARG final you heard it here first

🏁 I animated the token 💰 spend race, from ~lifetime Vercel AI Gateway usage, which aggregates trillions of tokens from millions of developers a month. Fascinating to see the fluctuations among the labs, Anthropic's dominance, and the rise of open weight AI.

Agentic self-improvement. Give your agent the ability to introspect its past runs, spot inefficiencies, errors, redundant tool calls, and produce new prompts and skills. That’s why agent observability is built-in when you deploy http://eve.dev to Vercel.

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” Such beautiful, sacred words.

We've been explaining AI Gateway as a C̶o̶n̶t̶e̶n̶t̶ Token Delivery Network. Like a CDN for AI models. One great feature of CDNs is the ability to dynamically re-route or deny traffic without redeployment. When Fable was suddenly retired, we worried about production workloads depending on it. Even Fable aside, models get retired quite often as GPU capacity is heavily contested. Yet our data shows people still having happy production traffic of older model versions! We're solving this now with AI Gateway Rules. e.g.: you can now rewrite model "routes" on the fly! 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕 𝚊𝚒-𝚐𝚊𝚝𝚎𝚠𝚊𝚢 𝚛𝚞𝚕𝚎𝚜 𝚊𝚍𝚍 \ --𝚝𝚢𝚙𝚎 𝚛𝚎𝚠𝚛𝚒𝚝𝚎 \ --𝚜𝚘𝚞𝚛𝚌𝚎 𝚊𝚗𝚝𝚑𝚛𝚘𝚙𝚒𝚌/𝚌𝚕𝚊𝚞𝚍𝚎-𝚏𝚊𝚋𝚕𝚎-𝟻 \ --𝚍𝚎𝚜𝚝𝚒𝚗𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚊𝚗𝚝𝚑𝚛𝚘𝚙𝚒𝚌/𝚌𝚕𝚊𝚞𝚍𝚎-𝚘𝚙𝚞𝚜-𝟻 This adds to the repertoire of capabilities and techniques AI Gateway brings to the table to recover lost tokens. If you drop tokens, you lose revenue and customers 💸 Kudos to @rtaneja_ @crowprose @shaper – we went from CLI design to production-grade capability very quickly!

Private connectivity between services is 🔑 for backends. 1️⃣ Register 𝚋𝚒𝚗𝚍𝚒𝚗𝚐𝚜 in 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕.𝚓𝚜𝚘𝚗 (1LOC) 2️⃣ Read it: 𝚗𝚎𝚠 𝚄𝚁𝙻("/𝚊𝚙𝚒", 𝚙𝚛𝚘𝚌𝚎𝚜𝚜.𝚎𝚗𝚟.𝙱𝙰𝙲𝙺𝙴𝙽𝙳_𝙸𝙽𝚃𝙴𝚁𝙽𝙰𝙻_𝚄𝚁𝙻) Works for Node, Python, 𝙳𝚘𝚌𝚔𝚎𝚛𝚏𝚒𝚕𝚎… you name it

Everyone in NYC has the same dog. It's a french bulldog. This needs to be studied

Watching our product owners pitch and demo internally with @v0⁠s feels like science fiction, especially with our design system fidelity. It gives the company end-user empathy and decision-making velocity that we never had with text or slides. Demos > memos.

Agents love to check their work before they push. You probably see it in the form of 𝚗𝚘𝚍𝚎 --𝚌𝚑𝚎𝚌𝚔, 𝚝𝚜𝚌 --𝚗𝚘𝙴𝚖𝚒𝚝, 𝚗𝚎𝚡𝚝 𝚋𝚞𝚒𝚕𝚍, etc all over your agent sessions. We’re now shipping the dry-run step for agentic deployments, minimizing costs and risk.

GLM is excellent at @nextjs. The evals validate it (http://nextjs.org/evals), my own vibes validate it, and @chamath’s http://8090.ai validates it

http://skills.sh is the new npm and the new github. Over time, you need fewer 'templates' and large piles of code. I haven't cloned a repo in a very long time. You need the instructions and best practices on how to build the best things.

Excited to partner with the best 🏎️

Content agents with http://eve.dev and @sanity_io. I recommend you ship the agent you can @ to fix docs, update website copy, draft a changelog or blog… it’s been a game changer for us internally.

At dinner, tech executive is relaying his company’s @vercel feedback, and then his 12-year-old son’s @vercel feedback 😁 Vercel is for everyone.

So great to get to work with @tobi and the wonderful @shopify team. Excited to push the agentic web forward.

Mythos / Sol cybersecurity capabilities are equally useful in an offensive as well a defensive capacity.

Human judgement in engineering is ironically even more crucial now. Deciding what to build. Deciding on the right architectures. Deciding whether you regenerate from scratch $$$ or reuse existing legos. Managing tech debt. You can do anything now, but you can't do everything.

Agents are particularly hard-to-debug software. For one, and by design, AI models behave in non-deterministic ways. Even two identical prompts don't always yield the same output. But agents are also complex distributed systems. They involve multiple steps of computation across functions and sandboxes, touching dozens of API services that can go down, rate limit you, etc. Nailing down observability out of the box for http://eve.dev on Vercel was a key priority for the team, and the feedback so far has been 🔥↓

Something that I love about working at @vercel is just how enjoyable it is to use our technology. From using the platform to ship new products, to the agents you find in our workspace that make life easier. It's like experiencing the future while building the future 🔁

Our best @aisdk release yet

AI will bring forth an unprecedented surge in entrepreneurship. From 'solopreneurs,' to the revitalization of the small & medium business segment, to the emergence of the largest companies of our times… providing the foundation of it all.

Coding agents will squeeze every ounce of IKEA effect out of you, if you let them.

Happy Father's Day. Thankful to my dad who spent every last penny on buying our family 'the bicycle of the mind'

Genuinely impressed, almost shocked, at how good GLM-5.2 by @zai_org is at coding. This changes things.

The next hot programming language is… markdown. A minimal eve agent: 📂 𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚗𝚝/ 📄 𝚒𝚗𝚜𝚝𝚛𝚞𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗𝚜.𝚖𝚍 📂 𝚜𝚔𝚒𝚕𝚕𝚜/ 📄 𝚢𝚘𝚞𝚛-𝚎𝚡𝚙𝚎𝚛𝚝𝚒𝚜𝚎.𝚖𝚍 Deployable in one command: 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚌𝚎𝚕. It’s the most accessible programming has ever been. And likely will ever be, at least for the generation of software fully defined and controlled by us humans. (As a fun fact, one of the initial prototypes for eve was codenamed 𝚕𝚊𝚜𝚝 by @timolins, both in homage to ‘@nextjs for agents’ but also in recognition of how enduring eve’s design feels to us.)

Agents are motivating so many healthy software habits. Open APIs, documentation (skills), tests (evals), Unix (CLIs), payment & commerce protocols, even wide 𝙰𝚌𝚌𝚎𝚙𝚝 use (markdown/json/html). The original vision of the WWW coming to life before our eyes.

React → http://ai-sdk.dev Next.js → http://eve.dev @aisdk is more relevant than ever, given the intense model competition landscape. Just today, GLM 5.2, an open model, surpassed Opus 4.8 in our Next.js Evals (http://nextjs.org/evals) 🤯 But the world needs a practical solution for how to build and deploy agents. Just like React needed Next.js to solve the task of building an actual web application. And that's eve.

http://Eve.dev is Next.js for agents. I built Next with a simple premise: 𝚙𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚜/𝚒𝚗𝚍𝚎𝚡.𝚓𝚜 is all you need. Put some React in there and you’re good to go. Eve asks for even less. 𝚊𝚐𝚎𝚗𝚝/𝚒𝚗𝚜𝚝𝚛𝚞𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗𝚜.𝚖𝚍. Put some English in there and you’re good to go. Like Next, it embraces the filesystem. You can guess what 𝚝𝚘𝚘𝚕𝚜/𝚚𝚞𝚎𝚛𝚢-𝚍𝚋.𝚝𝚜 does. An agent is just a directory, whose entire spec fits in the tweet below. And like Next on Vercel, it’s seamless to deploy. The infra, like Sandbox, Gateway, Workflow… is the output of your creation.

The hardest part of building an agent is not building the agent. It’s the data. It’s, ironically, figuring out OAuth, tokens, credentials, scopes… We have AGI sitting there, waiting to be unleashed. Vercel Connect solves for both security and ease of use. It’s delightful

RT Vercel Every agent needs streaming, models, durability, isolation, channels, and integrations. The Agent Stack has them all: ▪︎ AI SDK ▪︎ AI Gateway ▪︎ Workflow SDK ▪︎ Sandbox ▪︎ Chat SDK ▪︎ Vercel Connect 𝚎𝚟𝚎 implements them with one command ↓https://vercel.com/blog/agent-stack

Tomorrow http://vercel.com/ship/london some big announcements!

v0 commits to shipping the best skills by default. Our goal is to give you the equivalent of a @vercel product engineer like @shuding and @shadcn on each prompt. But you can also now grab any skill from http://skills.sh or add your team’s private set.

A sandbox A function A server A build Are you getting it!? These are all expressions of the same underlying compute infrastructure. With tweaks to load balancing, concurrency, persistence, overcommit… 2026 is the year serverless and servers finally converge. With no gotchas

One of our most requested features, longer Vercel function runtime, is here. What looks like an innocent tweak of a constant… is actually the conclusion a multi-year compute platform investment. Builds, Sandbox, and now Functions run on our homegrown microVM-based Fluid compute infrastructure. This investment has enabled innovations like function multi-concurrency, Active CPU pricing, and Secure Compute for private connectivity to existing cloud workloads… with lots more to come, in fact, in the coming days and weeks 😎

RT Gokul Rajaram VERCEL FTW For my first product Transcribe, I went with a good hosting provider - super easy to use but had an outage every few weeks. I learnt my lesson, and for my second (and evergreen) product Coach, I am using @vercel to build, deploy and host the service. It's so powerful and good yet so easy to use. Thank you @rauchg - it's a privilege to be an investor in Vercel!
