Vercel replaces Pro CDN overages with flat-rate included data transfer
What happened
Between the Sep 8, 2026 and Sep 9, 2026 captures of Vercel's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Vercel introduced Flat Rate CDN for Pro plan, replacing usage-based overage billing for Edge Requests, Fast Data Transfer, Blob Data Transfer, and Sandbox Data Transfer with a fixed included flat rate. Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 20, 2026) lists Pro at $20.
It lands 8 days after Vercel's previous change, "Vercel adds tax disclaimer: prices in USD, exclude VAT and GST" (Sep 1, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Vercel: Connect->Token Requests price hike + new Triggers metric" (Aug 31, 2026), "Vercel supercharges sandboxes 5x, splits AI pricing into token and trigger fees" (Aug 27, 2026) and "Vercel renames Edge Config to Global Config, quotas and pricing untouched" (Aug 24, 2026). Vercel has been tracked since 2024-10-01.
In the same window Netlify, Render, Railway and Heroku also changed their Cloud & DevOps pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
