v0 is Vercel's entry and fits founders who care most about how the front end looks and want hosting on a well-known platform. It generates working applications from a prompt, publishes them as live sites in seconds and deploys to Vercel with one click. Design Mode lets you adjust details visually with a live preview, a design system feature sets colors and type across projects, and GitHub sync pushes code to your own repository, which helps if a developer joins later. The agent plans, creates tasks and connects to databases as it builds, and there is an iOS app for building on the go. The Free plan includes $5 of one-time credits and a 7 message daily cap. Plus costs $30 per user per month with $30 of credits and $2 of free daily credits on login. Usage is billed by tokens, which is transparent but less intuitive for non-developers, and per-user pricing makes teams more expensive.
