    Vercel reports open-weight models handled 71.5% of its gateway tokens

    Vercel’s October Production Index says open-weight models handled 71.5% of its AI Gateway token volume but 23% of gateway spend in September. It also reports TypeSafe AI’s Jev reached about 35% of paid gateway teams in two weeks. These are measurements of Vercel’s own customer traffic, not the whole AI market, and TypeSafe AI made Jev, not Vercel.

It is also launching Enterprise-Managed Authorization through Vercel Connect in public beta so agents can use connected services under employee identity controls. The earlier Enterprise Apps and Agents platform was available in June; these are the new October changes.
