Been using AI Elements for a while. My favourite part.. My product gets features and improvements for free every week.
Vercel is the frontend cloud platform and the team behind Next.js. It enables developers to deploy, scale, and optimize web applications effortlessly. Focused on speed, performance, and seamless developer experience.
“Vercel continues to impress! The seamless Next.js integration, blazing-fast deploys, and zero-config preview environments make development feel effortless. The new AI Elements (launched August 25, 2025) are a great addition for building AI-native UIs with React—fully customizable and beautifully designed.
The plug-and-play components for message threads and reasoning panels are super handy !!
Is it more user-friendly compared to Lovable, Bolt, and V0? Where does the differentiation advantage lie?
AI Elements gives React devs full control over AI interfaces message threads, input boxes, reasoning panels, and more. Built on shadcn/ui and designed for the Vercel AI SDK, it's open-source, customizable, and ready to ship
Congrats on the launch!
Vercel makes building and scaling web apps so much smoother. Excited to see how makers leverage this for faster, personalized web experiences.
Hi @Vercel team, I would rate AI elements the most solid AI Chat Web UI library in the wild. We use it in our @Simular products. It's easy to compose and works just out of the box. 🎉
One feedback I do have is that, due to the use of react-syntax-highlighter parsing, the messages list rendering could be fairly slow if the message contains multiple code blocks, looking forward to the future optimizations about this.
I just went through the AI Elements website and documentation, and even though I haven’t used it yet, it’s clear this will be a perfect fit for my tech stack on upcoming AI projects. The thoughtful design and customizable components seem tailor-made to simplify building AI features, and I’m excited to start using it to speed up development and deliver more polished results.
Just stumbled on this—love how you’ve made reasoning panels and message threads plug-and-play. I’ve hacked these together before, so curious: how customizable are the response actions?
Full control over chat UI bits without fighting the code? That’s just smart, tbh—been wishing for this exact thing, fr. Super pumped to try it out!
