Understanding Vercel's Pricing Model

Per User

Vercel uses a per-user pricing model. This means you pay a set amount for each team member who needs access. Per-user pricing scales linearly with your team size, so costs grow predictably as your organization expands. This model works well for teams with a stable headcount, but can become expensive for large organizations.
