Case Study: OpenEvidence achieves trusted, hospital-grade AI scale with Vercel

OpenEvidence cuts serverless spend by 90% with Vercel

OpenEvidence, a clinical decision support platform used by physicians, needed to build a healthcare AI that was both fast and incredibly reliable. Their challenge was to achieve startup-level development speed while meeting hospital-grade reliability standards, as any failure could impact critical medical decisions. They chose Vercel to host their Next.js frontend.

By deploying their frontend on Vercel, OpenEvidence gained automatic scaling, fast deployments, and preview environments. This allowed their small team to prototype quickly and support massive growth. Vercel's Fluid compute feature reduced their serverless spend by 90% while maintaining performance. The solution proved its reliability when the platform seamlessly handled a viral event, and Vercel now constitutes less than 5% of their overall infrastructure spend.
