Vercel cuts Turbo/Observability prices, adds metered Connect, reworks…
What happened
Between the Mar 30, 2026 and Jun 29, 2026 captures of Vercel's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Vercel restructured Workflows billing (steps to events, new Data Written/Retained fees), cut Turbo machine and Observability Plus prices, and added Vercel Connect as a new metered add-on ($3/10K requests). Pulse files it as a packaging change (packaging change). Pulse's latest capture (Nov 15, 2026) lists Pro at $20.
This quarterly roll-up includes 5 changes Pulse first recorded in a shorter period: "Vercel makes v0 a paid add-on, locks out Hobby users" (week of Jun 15, 2026, saved Jun 22, 2026), "Vercel cuts Turbo build costs 17%, restructures Workflows billing" (week of May 18, 2026, saved May 25, 2026) and "Vercel slashes workflow billing unit cost 87% in pricing overhaul" (week of May 11, 2026, saved May 18, 2026) and 2 more. It also records changes none of those periods did (packaging change), so Pulse counts it as a change of its own. Before that, Vercel's previous recorded change was "Vercel Adds Elastic Machines Option to Build Minutes Pricing" (Apr 1, 2026). Vercel has been tracked since 2024-10-01.
In the same window Render, Railway, Netlify 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.
