Vercel AI SDK
The toolkit for building AI-powered web applications
Vercel's AI SDK makes it easy to build streaming AI interfaces in web apps. If your product needs a ChatGPT-like streaming response UI (and it might), this is one of the easiest ways to build it. It handles the annoying parts: token streaming, state management, model switching.

Why This Matters for PMs
If your product is a web application and you're adding AI features, Vercel AI SDK significantly reduces development time. As a PM, the key thing to understand is that it handles the UX layer of AI — the streaming, the state management, the model abstraction. Your team can ship AI features faster, and you can switch models without a major rewrite if OpenAI gets expensive or Anthropic gets better.
