Why use Vercel Connect with DeepSeek?
Credentials on demand
Request DeepSeek credentials only when your application or agent needs them instead of copying secrets into application code.
Access for the right subject
Keep app-scoped DeepSeek access behind a reusable connector controlled by your team.
Centralized credential management
Manage DeepSeek credentials in one place and retrieve them through a consistent runtime API.
Vercel-native controls
Bind connections to the projects and environments that need them while Vercel OIDC authenticates each runtime request.
Use DeepSeek with your stack
Follow a complete setup for the Connect SDK or a supported agent framework.
Add DeepSeek to an existing Vercel application with the Connect SDK.
