Vercel Daemons
Vercel's public-beta runtime for continuous background workers (Celery, Dramatiq, Temporal), announced Oct 15, 2026.
Overview
Vercel launched Daemons in public beta on October 15, 2026 alongside general availability of Python on Vercel and custom-runtime containers. Daemons runs continuous background workers from code or a container image, keeps a configured number of instances running and replaces failed ones. It supports Celery, Dramatiq and Temporal workers, and Python on Vercel (FastAPI, Flask, Django on CPython with uv) became generally available the same day.
