You can now define transform rules in vercel.json to modify HTTP request and response headers or query parameters, without changing application code. Unlimited transform rules are available for all customers, and let you: Set, append, or delete request headers, response headers, and query parameters Use conditional logic to apply changes based on request metadata Match by equality, inequality, prefixes, suffixes, inclusion in string arrays, or numeric comparisons for fine-grained control This expands the flexibility of Vercel's CDN, which already supports routing behavior like redirects and rewrites to external origins. For example: Explore an interactive transform configurator and demo of this in action. Please refer...

For over a decade, Vercel has helped teams develop, preview, and ship everything from static sites to full-stack apps. That mission shaped the Frontend Cloud, relied on by millions of developers and powering some of the largest sites and apps in the world. Now, AI is changing what and how we build. Interfaces are becoming conversations and workflows are becoming autonomous. We've seen firsthand while building v0 and working with AI teams like Browserbase and Decagon. The pattern is clear: developers need expanded tools, new infrastructure primitives, and even more protections for their intelligent, agent-powered applications. At Vercel Ship, we introduced the AI Cloud: a unified platform that lets teams build AI features and apps...
