How Superset built the IDE for AI agents on Vercel
Not a pilot. Superset deployed 1,400 agent deployments per week—running a dozen coding agents in parallel on Vercel without breaking.

1,000–1,400 deployments per week
~600 preview deployments per day
~30 second average build time
57–64% week-over-week DAU growth
Absorbed Hacker News spike (3x user growth overnight) without infrastructure provisioning
