Bibash Magar (@bibashmgr) · 2025-07-21 I am having the same issue. Amy Egan (@amyegan) · 2025-07-21 Do you have middleware or edge functions? Those are now powered by Vercel Functions with Fluid compute. To check, you can click `Runtime` / `Type` on the screen from that first screenshot to see the runtime (e.g. edge, nodejs) and type of function (e.g. middleware, function) https://vercel.com/changelog/edge-middleware-and-edge-functions-are-now-powered-by-vercel-functions James Singleton (@jamesrsingleton) · 2025-07-21 So even though you don't have fluid compute enabled, Vercel automatically runs those with fluid compute and bills them to your fluid compute costs? I know the two projects that show fluid compute even though it's not enabled don't have a `middleware.ts` file in them. What then is considered an edge function? AFAIK I am just making fetch requests with sanity's fetch function. Bibash Magar (@bibashmgr) · 2025-07-28 · ♥ 1 I checked and realized that I had middleware in place removing it resolved the issue.
