With its valuation at roughly $9.3 billion, Vercel, a growing name in AI-assisted development, has completed a Series F financing round of $300 million. Accel and GIC, Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund, co-led the round, showing great faith in the startup’s goal of becoming a basic AI infrastructure provider.
Originally designed to enable developers with minimal friction to create, deploy, and scale apps, Vercel’s platform has evolved beyond conventional web tooling. With over 3.5 million users, agent v0, which enables the development of full-stack applications using natural language prompts, has momentum. The company announced it had doubled its Post revenue and user base, expansion of roughly 82% annually.
These new monies are set aside to expand Vercel’s AI Cloud platform
GIC’s involvement indicates Asia’s increasing influence in worldwide tech financing and provides Vercel with some regional strategic advantage. The road ahead presents dangers, though. Vercel must turn technological promise into sustained corporate adoption to justify its high valuation, negotiate rivalry from AI and ensure that its artificial intelligence tools scale securely and safely; otherwise, it might stand.
