Within 24 hours of launching on AI Gateway, reached more than twice as many paid teams as any previous model launch, making it the fastest-adopted model in gateway history.Jev from TypeSafe AI passed every other comparison model in its first twelve hours and continued to widen its lead for the rest of the day. By hour 24, nearly 13% of paid teams were using it. That's 2x the GPT-5.6 family and more than 6x Fable 5.1's share.Jev Jev’s launch shows how quickly a specialized model can find a plac

now installs private packages from npm and custom registries using credentials stored as shared environment variables on Vercel.v0 This makes it easier for teams to build with their existing design systems, component libraries, and internal packages directly in v0. To get started, add one of the following as a on Vercel, scoped to Development and/or Preview:shared environment variable supports scoped registries and references to other environment variables. For example, configure an organizati

TThe web is evolving beyond menus, forms, and endless clicks toward experiences shaped around human intent. For UX designers, understanding this shift means re-evaluating their role, moving from designing visible interfaces to guiding transparent, intent-driven AI experiences.

They accept reference images for targeted edits while preserving surrounding elements. Flare is optimized for faster generation and iteration. Sunburst takes longer to genera

Workloads differ in how long they run, how much memory they take, and how much of the environment they control. That previously meant a different compute primitive for each job, so product iterations required provisioning infrastructure, not just working on a feature. We built Vercel so that none of this has to be your problem. The compute layer is a single system with a simple job. Take any workload, assemble the machine it needs, swap configuration on the fly, and absorb burst capacity in real

Qwen 3.8 Max 0902 now available on AI Gateway is now available on AI Gateway.Qwen 3.8 Max 0902 from Alibaba This is a new snapshot of Qwen 3.8 Max, with the gains concentrated in coding on larger projects, long-horizon work that runs without supervision, and agent runs. Vision handling is more accurate on charts and dense documents. To use Qwen 3.8 Max 0902, set to :modelalibaba/qwen3.8-max-0902 The dated ID pins this snapshot, so a later release will not change what your requests run against.

Every website peaks on launch day and slowly drifts from there, not because it breaks, but because nobody has time to keep it current. Autonomous websites, continuously optimized by agents after launch, aim to change that. Pierre Burgy shares what they learned building for full website autonomy and the deeper design problem they uncovered along the way.

Summary Impact on Vercel deployments Resolution for self-hosted applications Credit References Two vulnerabilities affecting Next.js were disclosed in the August 2026 Security Release. Next.js applications hosted on Vercel are protected and require no customer action. Next.js disclosed the following critical vulnerabilities: After the AVIF vulnerability was identified, Vercel applied protections to its managed Image Optimization service. Applications hosted on Vercel are protected. No upgrades

Agents need to run untrusted code, and the microVM has become the standard way to do it: a dedicated guest kernel per workload, isolated from the host and from every other workload on the same machine. But recent security research and real-world incidents have revealed that agents running untrusted code do not need to cross a VM boundary to escape containment; they only need one network path the security model failed to account for, which we explained in our post .A sandbox without a network bo

The best way to learn is by shipping product to users in production, and that's why we don’t treat our interns as temporary guests. Every intern at Vercel is expected to operate like a core part of our engineering team from day one. This past winter, we welcomed a small cohort of those interns to our headquarters in San Francisco. Over an intense four months, they contributed to some of our most important products: the CDN, v0, financial infrastructure, AI Gateway, and more. They shipped feature

Vercel CDN now supports Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) for domains managed by Vercel DNS. ECH encrypts the Server Name Indication (SNI) in the TLS handshake, the last part of an HTTPS connection that revealed which hostname a client was connecting to. With ECH, network observers see a connection to Vercel's shared ECH hostname, .vercel-ech.com ECH is managed at the platform level and enables automatically where supported. Recent versions of Chrome, Edge, and Firefox .support Encrypted Client Hello
