Introducing eve
Why it matters
Vercel is productizing agent infrastructure the same way it productized web deployment—removing the plumbing so teams can ship agents in minutes instead of months. This signals a major shift: agents are moving from research/prototype phase to commodity infrastructure, accessible to non-ML engineers.
Key signals
- eve is open-source agent framework launched by Vercel
- Supports durable workflows with checkpointing and crash recovery
- Built-in sandbox execution for agent-generated code (Vercel Sandbox, Docker, microVM)
- Human-in-the-loop approval gates configurable per action
- Multi-channel support: Slack, Discord, Teams, Telegram, Twilio, GitHub, Linear via single agent codebase
- Integrations with Slack, GitHub, Snowflake, Salesforce, Notion, Linear via Vercel Connect
- OpenTelemetry tracing exported to Braintrust, Honeycomb, Datadog, Jaeger
- Vercel runs 100+ agents in production internally
- d0 data agent handles 30,000+ questions/month in Slack
- Lead Agent (autonomous SDR) returns 32x annual cost (~$5,000/year)
- Vertex support agent solves 92% of tickets autonomously
- Agents triggered 3% of Vercel deployments 1 year ago; now ~29%
- Public preview launched June 17, 2026

Instead, eve comes with produ…
