Vercel charges based on bandwidth, edge function execution, and team seats. Puchify charges for the infrastructure resources you provision. They are complementary — Vercel handles the frontend layer, Puchify the infrastructure layer.
Vercel and Puchify address different layers of the application stack. Vercel is purpose-built for frontend deployment. Puchify is purpose-built for provisioning and managing infrastructure. Many teams use both together.
