What is Vercel MCP?

Vercel MCP is Vercel's official remote Model Context Protocol server. It connects an existing AI assistant to Vercel documentation and authorized platform resources through OAuth. Developers and platform teams can use it to investigate deployments and work with projects from their preferred AI client.

Users describe a task, and the connected assistant selects tools and supplies their parameters. Available tools depend on the connection, client support and resource scope.

Vercel MCP pricing

Freemium

Vercel MCP is available on all Vercel plans. The underlying platform offers free Hobby, paid Pro and custom Enterprise tiers. Infrastructure usage can incur charges, so MCP availability does not make every resource it accesses free.

The catalog excludes creating AI Gateway API keys, exchanging SSO tokens, importing KMS private keys and signing KMS messages or tokens.
