## AI overview

Vercel updated its Terms of Service and Marketplace terms to define responsibilities for AI-powered Vercel services and third-party tools with account access. The update also changes billing terms for independently purchased services such as AI Gateway credits.

## Source excerpt

The proliferation of agentic workflows means developers now regularly grant AI tools direct access to their infrastructure, use services that act autonomously, and build on platforms that themselves use AI to operate. We've updated our Terms of Service and Marketplace terms to clarify shared responsibility when actions on your account may be taken by AI, whether Vercel's own or a third-party tool you've connected, as well as other important updates detailed below. What is changing?AI Functionality and Third-Party Tools Vercel's platform increasingly includes AI-powered services, including v0, Vercel Agent, WAF natural language rules, and AI Gateway. These services may take actions on your behalf. We've introduced two new concepts to make the responsibilities around this explicit: AI Functionality refers to Vercel services that are AI-powered, that help you build AI products (like AI SDK), or that connect to AI providers (like AI Gateway). Third-Party Tools refers to any non-Vercel tool, script, service, or automation (AI-powered or not) that you grant access to your Vercel account. This includes CI/CD pipelines, third-party agents, and integration scripts. The key responsibilities: You control how AI Functionality behaves through your settings. Those settings define the scope of what AI Functionality can do on your behalf. You are responsible for reviewing and authorizing the actions AI Functionality takes, and for evaluating its outputs against your own requirements. If you grant a Third-Party Tool access to your Vercel account (e.g., giving it your API key), you are responsible for what it does, including any costs it incurs. You are responsible for actions taken by AI Functionality or Third-Party Tools on your behalf. Billing flexibility We are updating our billing terms to reflect the expansion of our product surface area beyond subscription plans. Fees are no longer exclusively tied to a subscription plan. Services like AI Gateway credits can be purchased and c
