Anyone can build agents, but it takes a platform to run them

Vercel argues that while Claude and similar models democratized rapid agent prototyping, production deployment remains complex. The company showcases d0 (internal text-to-SQL agent) and v0 (code generation), built on Vercel's orchestration platform—Sandboxes, Workflows, and AI Gateway handle durability, isolation, and cost control at scale. The core insight: building agents is easy, but running them reliably requires dedicated infrastructure.
