Vercel adds Backends under Remote Cache, new Marketplace Integrations row…
What happened
Between the Sep 14, 2026 and Sep 21, 2026 captures of Vercel's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Added 'Backends' capability under Remote Cache in Build & Deploy, and a new 'Marketplace Integrations' row in the Flags section. Pulse files it as a product change (feature added). Pulse's latest capture (Nov 15, 2026) lists Pro at $20.
It lands 12 days after Vercel's previous change, "Vercel replaces Pro CDN overages with flat-rate included data transfer" (Sep 9, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Vercel adds Tracing Spans metric, charges $0.50 per 1M span units on Pro" (Sep 25, 2026), "Vercel splits Speed Insights: free 10K-event tier, paid Plus Events add-on" (Sep 24, 2026) and "Vercel adds tax disclaimer: prices in USD, exclude VAT and GST" (Sep 1, 2026). Vercel has been tracked since 2024-10-01.
In the same window Railway, Netlify, Render 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.
