Vercel

Understand how managed Vercel projects are created during onboarding.

Vercel

During onboarding, Cofounder creates two managed Vercel projects:

  • one for the app
  • one for marketing

Each project is linked to its corresponding managed GitHub repository.

Role

Vercel is where the app and marketing site get deployed.

  • the app project runs the product
  • the marketing project runs the site and launch surface
  • staging environments give the workspace a separate place to test changes

What Cofounder Sets Up

For each managed project, Cofounder:

  • links the GitHub repository
  • sets the production branch
  • creates a staging environment

What Else Gets Synced To Vercel

Managed Vercel projects are where Cofounder pushes:

  • Supabase environment variables for the app
  • Postmark environment variables for email

The onboarding flow also configures automation access on the managed Vercel projects so agent-driven deployment workflows can run.
