Summary
Vercel is releasing the data behind its AI Gateway model leaderboards under a CC BY 4.0 license, accessible via a downloadable export and a leaderboard-export API endpoint, and lets users render any chart as a shareable image.
What changed
On July 14, 2026, Vercel made the underlying AI Gateway leaderboard data openly available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. Developers can download the data or query it through a leaderboard-export API endpoint and export any leaderboard chart as a shareable image.
Why it matters
AI Gateway aggregates real usage across many models, so opening that data turns Vercel's routing layer into a public benchmark of model adoption and performance trends. Programmatic access lets teams build their own model-selection dashboards and gives the market a vendor-neutral view of which models developers actually run in production.
