About

Vercel AI Gateway is the missing lane between raw provider keys and agent harnesses: one OpenAI-compatible endpoint that routes to many models, with a monthly free credit on every Vercel team account and no markup on tokens. The free tier is rate-limited and covers a subset of models, with no card required, and the paid tier supports BYOK. Documented CLI flows route Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor spend through it.
