Vercel opens applications for a six-week, 40-team AI Accelerator cohort offering over $4M in credits, running June 9 to July 18.

The [Vercel](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/vercel>) AI Accelerator returns for a second cohort, taking 40 teams through a six-week program from June 9 to July 18, with an optional in-person meetup in San Francisco. Applications are open now through May 17.

Selected teams get access to over $4M in combined credits from Vercel, v0, AWS, and AI platforms including Anthropic, Cartesia, Daytona, ElevenLabs, Fal, Modal, OpenAI, and Perplexity, among others. The program also includes weekly fireside chats and office hours, a private community group, and guides, templates, and videos.

The program ends with a demo day on July 18, where teams present to an audience of industry leaders and VCs. Judges will select three winners to receive over $100K each in additional credits and swag, and the first-place winner will also get an investment from Vercel Ventures.
