The Vercel AI SDK provides React hooks, streaming utilities, and provider abstractions for building AI-powered UIs. Works with any LLM provider. The standard for AI web apps.
Reviewer scorecard
“This is the kind of tool that makes you wonder how you worked without it.”
“The AI SDK is becoming the standard abstraction for AI in web apps. Tool calling and structured output support are excellent.”
“Solid execution. Does what it promises and the DX is clean.”
“Well-maintained, provider-agnostic, and genuinely useful. The streaming utilities alone save hours of boilerplate.”
“The team ships fast and responds to feedback. Good sign.”
“useChat and useCompletion hooks make AI UIs trivial. Provider abstraction means switching models is a one-line change.”
