The model (v0-1.0-md) is:
- Framework-aware (Next.js, React, Vercel-specific stuff) - OpenAI-compatible (just drop in the API base URL + key and go) - Streaming + low latency - Multimodal (takes text and base64 image input, I haven’t tested images yet, though)
I ran it through a few common use cases like generating a Next.js auth flow, adding API routes, and even asking it to debug some issues in React.
Honestly? It handled them cleaner than Claude 3.7 in some cases because it's clearly trained more narrowly on frontend + full-stack web stuff.
Also worth noting:
- It has an auto-fix mode that corrects dumb mistakes on the fly. - Inline quick edits stream in while it's thinking, like Copilot++. - You can use it inside Cursor, Codex, or roll your own via API.
You’ll need a Premium or Team plan on v0.dev to get an API key (it's usage-based billing).
If you’re doing anything with AI + frontend dev, or just want a more “aligned” model for coding assistance in Cursor or your own stack, this is definitely worth checking out.

Curious if anyone else has been testing this, how does it compare to other models like Claude 3.7/Gemini 2.5 pro for your use case?
