105 storiesGuillermo Rauch is the CEO of Vercel. His recent posts focus on Vercel product updates: a prototype for native Go support in Next.js, Node.js 26 LTS on Vercel, virtual models on AI Gateway that alias to a model for traffic steering, a partnership with Particle to serve its models through AI Gateway, Dockerfile deploys, and fx, Vercel's open-source agent harness, now built into T3 Code and reporting token-efficiency gains. He also built cpu-chat, a reproduction of OpenAI's findings on covert CPU communication.
Looks like today may be a record day for token volume % of open models on Vercel AI Gateway:
🟦 Open 78.4% 🟨 Closed 21.6%

Free Jev on Vercel
I know what I’m doing this weekend 😁
[Quoting @vercel_dev]: Jev by @typesafeai is free on Vercel AI Gateway until Sept 25.
Build with the fastest adopted model on the Gateway at no cost.
The data and the anecdata on Jev's adoption are shocking. Everyone is adopting it.
I think it's a great product, but this is also downstream of the "AI is too expensive/slow" zeitgeist. People are eager to optimize and put AI in even more places!

It's likely that more software will be produced next year than in all of the history of computing. It took Vercel 10 years to get to 1 billion deployments, but then we added another 1.4 billion in the last 10 months alone.
Some of this will be tiny, personal…
We're seeing extraordinary results from @typesafeai. Default mode in 𝚏𝚡 is auto, with a safety reviewer analyzing every command.
That reviewer runs on GPT Luna today. Jev is up to 18x faster (p95) *and* more accurate. It's coming to @vercel AI Gateway and l…
The future is multi-model. Trying to hide the choice confuses and hurts customers, who can't participate in the upside of the most exciting market competition of our times, nor master the best tool for the job.
[Quoting @v0]: v0 is now model-agnostic.

Agents are only as good as the proof-checkers, compilers, type systems, and linters you give them.

Welcoming Steren, creator of Google Cloud Run, to Vercel.
He will lead the Fluid family of compute products (Functions, Containers, Sandbox, Builds).
Serverless was the last chapter of the cloud, and Steren helped define the paradigm at Google.
Agents are the…
Skill-driven development
[Quoting @marcelkargul]: built the full CRM dashboard in Next.js in around 2 days 😍
with the help of Claude Fable 5.1 with two of the best skills:
see it live:
I’m seeing teams at Vercel iterate just as fast on Zig, Go, Rust projects as TypeScript & Python ones.
The days of language or runtime choice based on human convenience are over. Agents are the new compilers.
They compile intent into fast software.
can now orchestrate subagents with different models & reasoning efforts.
e.g: Fable planning and Grok executing. Fable is a genius, Grok is a fast workhorse.

The concerns over AI safety and cybersecurity are legitimate, but we’re risking talking America, the global AI leader, into self-inflicted obsolescence and the obscurity of bureaucracy.
The OpenAI hacking HuggingFace argument is spurious. An agent in “Exploit…
Tailscale’s model router is powered by Vercel AI Gateway as its underlying infrastructure.
AI Gateways are the new CDNs. You could go “direct to origin”, but it’s brittle. You could DIY, but it’s painful and costly.
Proud to serve Tailscale, the 🐐 networking…
AI Benchmarks with @Benchmark & @Vercel.
It's ① the most aptly named event in SF history and ② about one of the most important software categories of our generation.
The companies that benchmark models and guide the world towards skill, truth and efficiency.…
8 price cuts, fee removals and structure improvements, plus 16 model discounts… in the last 6 months alone. More to come…
[Quoting @vercel_dev]: You now have more ways to keep deployments secure on Vercel:

That is everything
