Introducing Fluid compute
Fluid compute is a new balanced approach between dedicated servers and serverless, using high-performance mini-servers to reduce cold starts, minimize over-provisioning, and lower compute costs by up to 85%.
While dedicated servers provide efficiency and always-on availability, they often lead to over-provisioning, scaling challenges, and operational overhead. Serverless computing improves this with auto-scaling and pay-as-you-go pricing, but can suffer from cold starts and inefficient use of idle time.
It’s time for a new, balanced approach. evolves beyond serverless, trading single-invocation functions for high-performance mini-servers. This model has helped thousands of early adopters maximize resource efficiency, minimize cold starts, and reduce compute costs .Fluid computeby up to 85%

OpenAI Decisions API now available on AI Gateway
OpenAI's Decisions API is now accessible through Vercel's AI Gateway with an OpenAI-compatible endpoint, enabling decision models to answer typed questions and return probabilities, choices, and scores for routing, triage, and guardrails use cases. Support is available across the OpenAI SDK, AI SDK, HTTP API, and CLI with the latest versions.
Timestamp attributes now supported in Vercel Flags
Vercel Flags now supports timestamp attributes for entities, allowing you to create time-based targeting rules. Use this feature to run limited-time campaigns, show content between specific dates, or target users based on registration date.
Glyph Cluster now available in stealth on AI Gateway
Glyph Cluster, a reasoning model for coding and long-context analysis, is now available as a stealth model on Vercel's AI Gateway for Pro and Enterprise plan teams with purchased AI Gateway credits at no cost during the stealth period. The model supports function calling, streams responses, and can be accessed via AI SDK, OpenAI-compatible APIs, and coding agents.
