TechCrunch·medium signal

Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch revealed that 30% of apps running on Vercel's platform are now deployed by AI agents rather than humans, with v0 growing to 3M users. ChatGPT has become Vercel's fastest-growing customer acquisition channel — users build apps in ChatGPT and deploy them to Vercel. ARR jumped from $100M (early 2024) to $340M run rate (Feb 2026). Rauch is signaling IPO readiness. This data point quantifies how agent-generated software is becoming a real deployment category, not just demos.
