Why use Vercel Connect with Modem?
Credentials on demand
Request Modem credentials only when your application or agent needs them instead of copying secrets into application code.
Access for the right subject
Support both user-authorized and app-scoped Modem access from the same connection layer.
Centralized credential management
Manage Modem credentials in one place and retrieve them through a consistent runtime API.
Vercel-native controls
Bind connections to the projects and environments that need them while Vercel OIDC authenticates each runtime request.

Add Modem to an existing Vercel application with the Connect SDK.
