Vercel AI Gateway Adds Kimi K3 Models with US-Only Inference

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from Vercel ·

Vercel's AI Gateway now supports Kimi K3 and Kimi K3 Fast from Moonshot AI on US-based providers like Baseten and Fireworks. The models offer Zero Data Retention and automatic failover across providers. Kimi K3 Fast costs ~50% more per token but reduces latency.

Meridian48 take
The addition of Kimi K3 to Vercel's gateway is notable for teams needing US data residency, but the 50% premium for fast inference may limit adoption to latency-sensitive use cases.
