Today, we have some very special news regarding the evolution of our company.
ZEIT is now Vercel . This new identity aligns with our new focus – to provide the ultimate workflow for developing, previewing, and shipping Jamstack sites.
Our Origins
In , we started with a simple goal: enablinging solo developers to effortlessly deploy their apps.
There is an overwhelming layer of technology and terminology in web development: domain setup with DNS and SSL, networking with TCP and HTTP, caching with CDN and Edge Networks … it’s a huge list. It creates much complexity.
Our first product, now , focused on simplifying deployments:
The original tweet announcing `now`. With a single command, we helped
developers get their apps and services live, inclusive of SSL and built-in routing.
Developers loved now . Tired of boilerplate, they appreciated the ability to trivially deploy, share, and scale their apps. The positive response was motivating – we were stoked!
Since then, we have invested all our energy into building products that simplify developer experience. Our open-source React framework Next.js is the most notable of them. At organizations big and small, it has become the framework to build React apps due to its simple learning curve, versatility, and performance.
Today, Next.js powers over , 0 sites at companies like Uber , Nike, and Starbucks.
A selection of companies using Next.js.
In these 4 years, ZEIT has gone from being a simple idea to a thriving community. , 10 0 frontend engineers and designers are using our technology to bring their ideas to life – whether company websites, SaaS products, or personal blogs.
Our Renewed Focus: Develop. Preview. Ship
From observing our community, we know that frontend engineers are more productive than ever. Frameworks like Next.js eliminate boilerplate, and serverless APIs give them full-stack powers .
Projects that once took months to develop, are getting completed by lean teams of frontend engineers and designers in days. These teams want to iterate rapidly, and collaboratively. They want to develop, preview, and ship at the speed of thought. They don’t want to leave their browsers, and other tools they’re already working with. That’s where we come in.
We enable teams to develop , preview , and ship their apps faster, and with confidence.
For teams, Vercel closes the gap between development, feedback and release phase. Anyone can set up Vercel in a couple of clicks – no DevOps knowledge necessary.
We use Vercel to build Vercel. We are constantly examining every interaction in own team workflow, and are obsessed about removing every little source of friction.
We have already introduced multiple updates focused on teams. Most recently:
As we expand our outlook, we felt this new focus merited a new identity.
As of today, we are re-establishing our brand identity as Vercel .
(Vercel) strongly connects to the words versatile , accelerate , and excel . It aligns with the benefits our platform offers: faster and better product collaboration , across every team in your organization.
We are introducing a new logotype for the brand, which we will use across our product and marketing. We decided to retain our signature triangle logo, although we have simplified it.
Our Series A Funding
To accelerate us in our mission, we have raised $ M in Series A funding. Our investors have led early design at Facebook and Dropbox, created frameworks like React, and are running companies like GitHub, Sentry, and Auth0. We are thrilled to count them as partners in our mission.
This new funding ensures an ever improving Vercel product experience and allows us to continue investing in our open-source projects like Next. js.
