Notably: queues can make agents and AI apps reliable. Quality and reliability are top of mind for everyone now, including our own team. We went through 3 iterations of the infrastructure while in private beta, and we're excited for you to build 'unbreakable software' with it.
Vercel Queues is now in public beta. • Create queues and publish tasks • Control how work is consumed and retried • Get built-in durability and automatic scaling Built for apps and agents, Queues is the lower-level primitive powering Vercel Workflow. https://vercel.com/changelog/vercel-queues-now-in-public-beta

What's cool about this playground is not just how convenient it is (try pasting, dragging, parallel jobs… it's good.) It's that you pay with your own @vercel AI Wallet. You sign in, then we debit your usage from AI Gateway. In this most recent iteration, you can now top up the Gateway credits directly from the app. The code is available to you so you can make your own apps where users pay for their AI inference.
If you thought your company's edge was "how fast you ship", you're in for a rude awakening. Everyone can ship fast now. Obviously, not everyone can ship tastefully, with quality and restraint in mind. That's the new edge.

📈 The Vercel support agent is now handling ~90% of customer inquiries without human intervention. Shockingly, we've been unable to upgrade to Opus 4.6 from 4.5 without measurable performance and customer sentiment degradation. The "best model" is a moving target. Bullish on AI Gateways and open AI SDKs 😉!
I know this is pretty well established at this point, but Codex 5.3 is a much more effective model than Opus 4.6. I went back and forth on both for a bit, but haven’t touched Opus at all now for a full week. First model to get me off of Opus… ever. Good job Codex team.

I started the @nextjs you know today from a 𝚁𝙴𝙰𝙳𝙼𝙴.𝚖𝚍 specification. That was the singular commit that set it on the trajectory you see today. We proceeded to furiously write code for weeks as we saw a unique window to disrupt the React ecosystem, which primarily consisted of "boilerplate" repos and static-only tooling. I now believe most software (and companies) will start out as markdown files, but it's agents that will be doing the furious coding. And the releasing. And the maintenance. I'm pretty happy that the API we laid out is as relevant as ever today. It's simple, filesystem focused, and its principles remain unchanged. http://v0-nextjs-hello-world.vercel.app
The plan B:
10 hours ago I was in Guadalajara on way to Puerto Vallarta when chaos broke out in the airport and had to hide in a bathroom. Vercel leadership got together and didn’t stop until my wife and I were safe. Internet barely worked so they booked every US bound flight on our behalf,
View quoted postI just measured the time from LinkedIn profile hyperlink click to fully skeleton-free profile at 11 seconds. I've seen quite a few 'fast github' recreations in @nextjs now. I'd love to see FastIn 😄
Let me g̶o̶o̶g̶l̶e̶ generate that for you
"Creation as a Service" will always beat "Software as a Service". I don't want your lowest-common-denominator software. I want software to work for me and meet my needs. I want platforms and infrastructure. To me, Slack is a good example of an ideal in-between of SaaS and Platform. I have zero interest in vibe coding my own Slack. (It's also particularly difficult software to perfect and scale, and if you disagree you have no idea how to build software 🤡). I do have a strong interest in extending Slack with our own agents. As I shared yesterday, more of our company runs on Slack-based "@" agents. We're making it easier than ever to deploy Slack agents on Vercel, with our AI infrastructure (gateway, workflows, sandbox, etc), starting with @v0. A lot of SaaS might be cooked, but Salesforce has a generational re-birth opportunity with Slack.
The future of design is… engineering. All designers at @vercel now also build, thanks to tools like @v0, Claude Code, and Cursor. They've been contributing to our frontends and apps for a while now. But over the past few months, the leap they've made is engineering the design process itself by building agents. A big part of shipping is getting the word out in a compelling way, especially on the @x platform, the everything app. In the past, we used to spend a bunch of time hand-crafting images and illustrations for social cards. Our design team built an internal agent and web ui using @v0 and Claude Code that makes this process fully self-serve. It even includes a previewer of what the final artifact will look like on X. It's called Leap. It's probably saved us hundreds of hours of work but also massively raised our quality bar. The artifacts it produces are beautiful. If you had asked me even 12 months ago whether our design team would be building their own design tools, let alone be this good, I would call bs. There was no master plan, or God forbid, a "sprint" to make this happen. It just took a handful of prompts to build and it propagated on Slack. Leap is now one of the many agents that helps us run our company more smoothly, built and securely deployed on @vercel for our internal use.
Our goal is to operate like the world's largest startup. One of our new colleagues told me today that what she loves the most about Vercel is how few meetings we have and how fast she can ship. And that at her previous job she was so asphyxiated by meetings that she could only get time to think and do deep work "at 8pm". Most companies are still operating with the legacy frameworks and operating rituals of the pre-AI, pre-agents "stone age". We don't just want to build self-driving software and infrastructure, but also amplify your own individual autonomy and impact of your contribution. If you want to meaningfully accelerate your career: http://vercel.com/careers
@rauchg @vercel You guys ship like you are a startup and you have hundreds of employees. There are few 'larger' companies I would consider working for as I love startups. Vercel is top of that list. Keep making all of our lives better please!

View quoted postAI is an amplifier of your intellect and values. A mirror of your soul. If you were a confirmation bias person, AI can be catastrophic for you. There’s some way to contort almost any prompt to give you the answer you’re looking for. The extreme version of this is AI psychosis. If you’re a “more is more” product company, then you’ll inundate yourself in garbage. Imagine joining a company that invented a custom operating system, programming language, and every kind of app they need just because they can. I’m somewhat conflicted here. The more software gets produced, the more Vercel benefits. It all needs to be built, hosted, secured, and scaled. And yet I don’t think every single line of code is worth your company producing.

We've reached an all-time high of 87.6% autonomous resolution rate on @vercel support cases. Best part: people truly love it. Even when the AI can't help, the overall UX is better (we auto-fill the ticket form). Last week I had my "CEO supports day". It's now clear to me that: 1️⃣ Every single legitimate support case will be automated by AI. As in: the customer needs guidance. 2️⃣ The remainder of tickets will be triaged and prioritized by our AI PM for coding agents to work on As far as 1️⃣ goes, as we continue to fine tune our agent, evals, models, and data sources, we are confident we can achieve near 100% resolution. Because we built and deployed our support agent on @vercel, we have full control over its destiny (screenshot below). The issue is that customers sometimes reach out to report complex product issues or even defects. As in: the product itself needs improvement! The only way to help that customer is to fix our stuff 😄 This is how the era of autonomous software improvement begins. A customer reporting a problem needs to ultimately result in code changes. For most companies, this flywheel doesn't exist. Support teams get overwhelmed, root causes don't get identified, documentation doesn't improve, incidents don't get filed. In this future, every single time you reach out to us, you'll be very directly contributing to our platform getting better.

Beyond the spectacular success of the project, it was eye-opening to dive into his agentic engineering process and style. Like many in the newest generation of AI-native developers, Pete didn't have direct experience with Next.js nor Vercel when building http://openclaw.ai or http://clawhub.ai. He just prompted them into existence. His take on what skills are valuable in the new world resonated with mine: deep understanding of how systems and architecture fit together. The implementation and code-writing is the agent's job. We also got a glimpse of his long-term vision which is even cooler than what we've all seen so far. ¹Oh, and we brainstormed the next rename 😂

This ◉ ʜᴜᴍᴀɴ ○ ᴍᴀᴄʜɪɴᴇ toggle by @p0 is brilliant. It's a beautiful illustration of what the web will "look like" to agents. It will look like a whole lotta markdown 😄 Incidentally, we just made it such that http://vercel.com/changelog links automatically render as markdown when agents consume it (we do the same for /𝚍𝚘𝚌𝚜).

He was a live player, ever curious, intent on figuring out this simulation that he found himself in. From first principles, Scott unraveled, understood, and ultimately controlled his own reality. He hacked himself with affirmations, others with persuasion, the world with simultaneous sips. He explained people as moist robots, two movies happening on one screen, his world as Gods’ debris. He carved a personal mission to “be useful,” and made us all better writers, public speakers, and persuaders. He preached the footwear theory of motivation, the Adams Law of slow-moving disasters, the skill stack, systems over goals, and of course, the Dilbert Principle. Besides cartooning, philosophizing, and teaching, Scott rose to the occasion and displayed, “the one virtue that cannot be faked” - courage. Scott had the courage to speak honestly as he saw it - about Trump, about his nation, and about his time, even though it cost him friends, audience, money, and his ticket to polite society. Scott had true courage, the kind that makes you unpopular, the kind that is always and everywhere in short supply, At the end, as any hacker of reality, Scott covered all of his bases - he left as a Buddhist, a Christian, and a player in the Simulation. Scott, we didn’t get enough time with you, but you were a mentor and a marvel. You were useful and you were courageous. You were incompressible and indivisible. One of a kind, and generous with your drawing, writing, and speaking. Unlike your squealing critics in the chattering class, you will be read generations from now. On this earth there are many long-lived hells but no lasting heaven. Each heaven must be created a...
Maybe AI was just some elaborate ploy to get engineers to finally write tests and documentation
Imagine being able to ask *anything* about your product or business to a superintelligent AI… "@d0, how many users opted into the new dashboard experience and stayed opted-in?" We tried for years to get the "Jarvis of data" working. Opus 4.5 + ▲ Sandbox + ▲ Gateway has made it possible. There's no going back.

We’re working on a Skill (http://skills.sh) to migrate from CRA (Create React App) to Next.js. Looking for apps to test it with. DMs open. Pretty confident agent skills can help solve one of the most annoying problems in computer science: legacy software migrations ☺️
Over 10,000 skills on http://skills.sh now In 72 hours
The AI SDK skill is now available. ▲ ~/ npx skills add vercel/ai Visit http://skills.sh to learn more. https://skills.sh/vercel/ai/ai-sdk

The future of computing is trillions of digital AI workers. The @vercel Sandbox is how: cloud computers purpose-built for agents. But computers have state, like Git repos (and petabytes of 𝚗𝚘𝚍𝚎_𝚖𝚘𝚍𝚞𝚕𝚎𝚜 😅). You can now clone & launch millions of agents with 1 API:
Vercel Sandboxes now support filesystem snapshots. Capture complete state with 𝚜𝚊𝚗𝚍𝚋𝚘𝚡.𝚜𝚗𝚊𝚙𝚜𝚑𝚘𝚝() to skip repeatedly slow setup steps like git clone and dependency installation. https://vercel.com/changelog/filesystem-snapshots-supported-on-vercel-sandboxes
View quoted postIndustry response to http://skills.sh exceeded my expectations. While I don't think skills are 1:1 to MCPs, it's very obvious that the return on effort invested is much greater. A skill on how to use a CLI + Claude Code makes your service or library way more attractive.
Over 4,500 unique agent skills have been added via 𝚗𝚙𝚡 𝚜𝚔𝚒𝚕𝚕𝚜 from major products across the ecosystem: • @neondatabase • @remotion • @stripe • @expo • @tinybird • @supabase • @better_auth Find new skills and level up your agents at http://skills.sh
View quoted postIt used to be controversial to state that there exist 10x engineers. People would get all worked up. I have news for you. AI has created 100x, possibly 1000x engineers. Time to update those hiring plans.
