Vercel AI Gateway Adds WebSocket Support for OpenAI Responses API
Vercel's AI Gateway now supports WebSocket mode for the OpenAI Responses API, enabling persistent connections that reduce latency. OpenAI reports up to 40% faster execution for agentic workflows with 20+ tool calls. The feature is compatible with zero data retention and follows OpenAI's specification.
