Tenex and Vercel are partnering up. I have been a Vercel fangirl since we started using their products at Morning Brew to power our content experiences. Then I started Tenex, which is an AI engineering and transformation firm, and quickly found out most of our engineers are Vercel fangirls too. As the non-technical midwit, I asked them why they love their products so much. The Appeal Here is what the band of nerds said: Ease of deployment for Next.js and other projects. AI SDK, best multi-purpose lightweight SDK, plus the gateway with 1 API key for all models. Preview deployments with comments, and comment on a real website like it is Figma. We just used this with outside. General vibes and style. I like their design taste for the dashboard and brand. They are the creators of Next.js, which is a very robust front-end framework that I love. This is not an ad, but it did make it a no-brainer to connect with the Vercel crew and strike a partnership. The Partnership What does that look like? To start: Tenex will serve as an AI engineering partner for Vercel, supporting customers with their engineering and product needs and maximizing their deployment and outcome with Vercel’s AI Cloud. Tenex and Vercel will collaborate on live AI events to cut through the noise and make AI as actionable as possible for technical and non-technical professionals. Much more to come, but for now very grateful to work with one of my favorite companies. Conclusion We are partnering with Vercel to support their customers with AI engineering needs and to host live AI events together. This partnership is 5 years in the making, built on our long history of using and loving their products. Follow me on LinkedIn or Instagram for more.
