Top Highlights
- Flat Rate CDN in Limited Beta - Pro teams can now opt into predictable monthly CDN costs instead of usage-based pricing, offering more financial certainty for high-traffic applications.
- Chat SDK AI Integration & Workflow Callbacks - Chat SDK now includes a built-in AI SDK toolset that wires read/write actions into agents with a single function call, plus support for pausing workflows on button clicks and form submissions via callback URLs.
- Firewall-Mitigated Traffic Now Free - Vercel is waiving CDN requests and data transfer costs for any traffic blocked by Web Application Firewall rules, making security features more cost-effective.
