Vercel Sandbox supports forking
Vercel Sandbox now supports forking with Sandbox.fork() . The fork starts from the source's current snapshot and inherits its config and environment variables. If the source is running, it forks the latest saved state, not the live in-memory state. If the source has no snapshot, it falls back to a fresh create, using the source's runtime and config.

Grok Voice Think Fast 2.0 now available on AI Gateway
Grok Voice Think Fast 2.0 from xAI is now available on AI Gateway. It is a speech-to-speech voice model that takes audio in and audio out, improving on the previous Grok Voice model in reasoning, transcription accuracy, and conversation. The model reasons in parallel with speech, so it can think through a query while talking without adding latency.
Regional inference now available on AI Gateway
AI Gateway now supports regional inference . Set inferenceRegion on a request to pin it to the US or EU. Every model provider that supports the selected region handles it the same way. Inference runs there, and any data the provider keeps is stored there.
WebSocket support for OpenAI Responses API live on AI Gateway
AI Gateway now supports WebSocket mode for the OpenAI Responses API. You can keep a persistent connection open and continue each turn by sending only new input items plus previous_response_id , instead of re-sending the full context over a fresh HTTP request every turn.
Kimi K3 and Kimi K3 Fast with ZDR and US-based providers now on AI Gateway
Kimi K3 from Moonshot AI and its faster serving path, Kimi K3 Fast , are now available from US-based providers on AI Gateway, including Baseten and Fireworks. Zero Data Retention (ZDR) is also supported for both models. Running Kimi K3 on US-based providers lets teams with data residency and compliance requirements use the model on US infrastructure.
Run multiple isolated agents in a single Sandbox
The @vercel/sandbox SDK now supports multiple Linux users and groups, so you can run agents side by side in a single Sandbox. Each agent runs as its own user with a private home directory. A group opens a shared workspace when they need to collaborate. This makes multi-agent systems easier to build.
MiniMax H3 now available on AI Gateway
MiniMax H3 is now available on AI Gateway. H3 generates 2K video from a text prompt, a starting image, a pair of first and last frames, or reference material. Alongside text-to-video and first-frame image-to-video, the model supports first-to-last keyframe transitions and multimodal reference-to-video, conditioning a generation on reference images, video...
Inkling Small from Thinking Machines is now available on AI Gateway
Inkling Small from Thinking Machines is now available on AI Gateway. Inkling Small reaches performance comparable to the larger Inkling model at about a quarter of the size, using much less compute per task. It is a broad generalist with native reasoning over audio and images, and it holds up well on reasoning, agentic coding, and tool use.
