@MichaelAtPalus @hp_arora @vercel got it. changes to this soon.

trying to make a sandbox mode of our project for various design partners made a new deployment w/ sandbox env vars and subdomain but our partners say they can’t visit it it’s bc vercel’s deployment protections block everyone else unless we pay $150/mo just to exclude the subdomain from these “protections”

hey @vercel i just tried to set up a sandbox deployment for our development partners only to find that you block non-team-members from said deployment… unless we pay an extra $150/mo making us pay to remove a gatekeeping feature that’s forced on us seems rather predatory

@hp_arora @MichaelAtPalus @vercel say more about what you're trying to do

@MichaelAtPalus @vercel cc: @jasgarch

@joelhooks @JohnPhamous amazing feedback, ty

@JohnPhamous @jasgarch be specific about what the email is about in clear language tell me how it will affect me and/or my users make proactive suggestions direct link to my relevant dashboard/metrics

vercel's billing emails are 🚮 wtf does this even mean? lol

@chrissyinspace happy to take a look. DM'ing.

vercel is killing my productivity at the beginning of the month i implemented caching to keep costs low now they're exploding again (from $1.50/day to close to $5/day) i don't have time for this 😭

@ChaiWithJai @rauchg @Netlify @nextjs @antigravity @vercel I see. Going to dm for some more info

@jasgarch @rauchg @Netlify @nextjs @antigravity @vercel most likely its from the original size of the workload's static assets which was ~18 MB because they were full on PNGs then i tried converting to webp and brought the size down to ~2.Xmb but its 24 requests/page so its back of napkin math bc i don't know my own content rn

I deployed my first site to Vercel (trydogfooding.com)! But, I know I'm gonna run paid ads to my site and I can't afford the hidden costs. My options are: 1. Convert my assets and ensure lazy loading 2. Move to @Netlify @rauchg what am I doing wrong with Vercel?

@ChaiWithJai @rauchg @Netlify @nextjs @antigravity @vercel i'm still not tracking where the $2.6K is coming from at 1M requests. curious how it's extrapolating that cost.

@rauchg @Netlify @nextjs @antigravity @vercel @rauchg @jasgarch here's more details about the AI generated comparison inside of Antigravity using Opus 4.6

@GraysonGladu @rauchg @vercel DM'ing to learn more

Been blocked on a Pro billing bug for 2 hours. Every upgrade attempt throws 'unexpected internal error'. Paying Pro Trial customer, blocked on enabling Static IPs for production security hardening. Support says 1-2 week response. Help? @rauchg @vercel

@eddiejaoude 🫡 releasing some changes soon

I have always been a fan of Vercel but $150 extra per month to password protect a site is way over the top for basically a htaccess file. I think I will start to look at other hosting providers now Any suggestions?

@brian_lovin @DannyNemer @render @vercel have you looked into enabling fluid? #enable-for-entire-project" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">vercel.com/docs/fluid-com…

@DannyNemer @render @vercel Function duration I guess

Tencent sent hundreds of thousands of requests to my personal site yesterday...? Cost me like $20 in Vercel function time. Anyone else seen this?

@Corp2BlueCollar @rauchg @nicoalbanese10 happy to take a look. mind if i DM?

@rauchg @nicoalbanese10 Had a $200+ vercel bill for my tiny apps with barely any usage thanks to the fluid memory.

Today we're open sourcing open-agents.dev, a reference platform for cloud coding agents. You've heard that companies like Stripe (Minions), Ramp (Inspect), Spotify (Honk), Block (Goose), and others are building their own "AI software factories". Why? 1️⃣ On a technical level, off-the-shelf coding agents don't perform well with huge monorepos, don't have your institutional knowledge, integrations, and custom workflows. 2️⃣ On a business level, the moat of software companies will shift from 'the code they wrote', to the 'means of production' of that code. The alpha is in your factory. Open Agents deploys to our agentic infrastructure: Fluid for running the agent's brain, Workflow for its long-running durability, Sandbox for secure code execution, AI Gateway for multi-model tokens. (Because of our focus on Open SDKs and runtimes, this codebase is a gem even if you're not hosting on Vercel.) TL;DR: if you're building an internal or user-facing agentic coding platform, deploy this: vercel.com/templates/temp…

@ataschz @Railway re consumption: you could also use the usage api to give them visibility into their consumption. vercel.com/changelog/acce… re modifications: heard

Hey! My clients want to know exactly how much infrastructure they consumed. I could create Vercel teams for them, but I would have to pay seats for each one. On the other hand, I need my customers to be able to enter and see everything and make modifications, therefore, the role of Viewer is not enough and forces me to pay for multiple seats more.

Haciendo pruebas sobre servicios para desplegar agentes, estas ultimas semanas compare @vercel, @Cloudflare y @Railway. Los agentes se despliegan usando @mastra como framework, va pequeñisimo hilo con mis impresiones y conclusiones:

@ataschz @Railway great thread. a couple questions 1. what type of consumption and agent metrics do they need access to? 2. what role types were you looking for on vercel?

Finalmente luego de nuestras pruebas decidimos apostar fuerte por @Railway. Obviamente paso mucha mas agua abajo del puente y no solo estas cosas motivaron nuestra decision. Un punto primordial para nosotros fue que necesitabamos darle visibilidad a nuestros clientes sobre el consumo y acceso a metricas del agente.

@Sourabhsinr @Elev8or_io want to dm me your team id? happy to look

@jasgarch @Elev8or_io I signed up for the $20 plan, but ended up getting billed $100 this month. No idea where the extra $80 came from trying to figure it out.

Vercel bills are getting out of hand 😅 We're hosting @Elev8or_io there - 1000+ pages, 50 preview environments and costs are adding up fast. Thinking of switching. What are you using instead? → Cloudflare Pages → Railway → Render → Self-hosted (VPS) → Something else?

@Wxlliams @Wardlangely @rauchg If you did get more of an allowance for adding more team members, would the seat cost feel more palatable to you?

@jasgarch @Wardlangely @rauchg The per-user model is such a blocker for me. I have a team of 3 and we would have to 3x our bill just for them to have access, and we don’t even gain any extra allowances for this.

Next.js is for everyone

@pariscestchiant @thallescomumh @vercel @Railway heard. any other paywalls that are top of mind?

@thallescomumh @vercel @Railway that and preview url suffixes, ugh.

oh COME ON @vercel wtf at least give us whitelist ranges

@leerob this is dope. have yet to run a simulation where UNC actually beats VCU ... which is both depressing and probably accurate.

I built an app to simulate the 2026 NCAA tournament! It uses historical data, KenPom rankings, game locations, and more to determine the win probability. ...but then has an AI model review the results and prompt for the reality of March Madness, unpredictable!

@lance_lotsome @rauchg 🔜 working on some things along these lines. say more about what you mean by capped. flat monthly fee for everything?

@rauchg Why can’t you just offer capped plans? And stop being weird
