Case Study: Teleport transforms documentation into a customer acquisition channel with Vercel and Next.js

How Teleport unlocked a new customer acquisition channel by overhauling and migrating their documentation

Teleport, an open-core platform for secure infrastructure access, needed to unify its website and documentation while supporting dynamic content, better versioning, and easier collaboration. The team chose Vercel with Next.js to replace its split MkDocs and Hugo setup and to support both static and dynamic rendering for a smoother developer experience.

With Vercel, Teleport migrated its docs to a serverless, GitHub-connected workflow with preview deployments, CMS integration, stronger security, and custom documentation features like versioning, shared variables, and Mermaid.js charts. The results included more than a 60% decrease in build times, 3x more concurrent builds, faster deployments multiple times per day, and a documentation portal that became a new customer acquisition channel.
