Vercel

Vercel is the defining infrastructure company of the modern frontend web — the platform that has made deploying, scaling, and optimizing web applications as simple and instantaneous as saving a file. Founded in 2015 by Guillermo Rauch, the creator of Next.js, Vercel was built on the conviction that the gap between writing code and shipping it to production was far too wide, too slow, and too complicated — and that eliminating that gap would unlock an entirely new level of developer productivity and creative freedom. That conviction has shaped every product decision the company has made, resulting in a platform that has become the standard deployment infrastructure for frontend teams at organizations of every size. Vercel's Edge Network — a globally distributed infrastructure that automatically delivers web content from servers closest to each visitor anywhere in the world — ensures that applications deployed on Vercel load with minimum possible latency for every user regardless of location. Vercel's preview deployments, which generate a unique shareable URL for every code commit and pull request, have transformed how frontend teams collaborate, review, and ship — making it possible for designers, product managers, and engineers to interact with changes in a real production-like environment before a single line of code reaches the main branch. The platform's zero-configuration deployment model means that any Next.js, React, Vue, Angular, or Svelte project can be deployed globally in seconds with zero DevOps overhead. Vercel's co-creation and stewardship of Next.js — the React-based web framework that has become the most widely used production web framework in the world with over 5 million active developers — gives the company a uniquely symbiotic relationship with the frontend ecosystem. Server components, streaming, and React Server Components capabilities introduced in Next.js 13 and beyond are redefining the architecture of high-performance web applications, and Vercel's infrastructure is purpose-built to serve these new patterns with maximum efficiency. For any frontend team that cares about developer experience, deployment speed, and world-class web performance, Vercel is the platform against which all others are measured.
