You can now access MiniMax's latest open source model, MiniMax M2 using Vercel's AI Gateway with no other provider accounts required. The model is free to use until Nov 7th, 2025. Focused on agentic use, Minimax M2 is very efficient to serve, with only 10B active parameters per forward pass.

AI Gateway lets you call the model with a consistent unified API and just a single string update, track usage and cost, and configure performance optimizations, retries, and failover for higher than provider-average uptime.

To use it with the AI SDK, set the model to minimax/minimax-m2:

1
import { streamText } from 'ai'
2

3
const result = streamText({
4
  model: "minimax/minimax-m2",
5
  prompt: "What is the future of open source LLM models?"
6
})

Includes built-in observability, Bring Your Own Key support, and intelligent provider routing with automatic retries.

The Bun runtime is now available in Public Beta for Vercel Functions.

You can choose between Node.js and Bun as your project runtime, selecting the best option for your workload.

Benchmarks show Bun reduced average latency by 28% for CPU-bound Next.js rendering compared to Node.js.

To use Bun in Vercel Functions, set the runtime globally in your project's vercel.json:

1
{
2
  "bunVersion": "1.x"
3
}

We currently support the following frameworks, with more on the way:

• Next.js

• Hono

• Express

• Nitro

Bun supports TypeScript with zero configuration. Here's an example with Hono:

1
import { Hono } from 'hono';
2

3
const app = new Hono();
4

5
app.get('/', (c) => {
6
  return c.text(`Hello from Hono on Bun ${process.versions.bun}!`);
7
});
8

9
export default app;

Or get started with one of our starter templates:

• Express on Bun

• Hono on Bun

Bun deployments automatically integrate with Vercel's existing logging, observability, and monitoring systems.

See benchmarks in our blog post, or read the docs to learn more.
