## Hidden costs and limits

- Vercel Pro at $20/user/month is per-seat.
- Vercel bandwidth: 1 TB included on Pro, then $0.15/GB.
- Serverless function cold starts on Vercel add 200-500ms latency. Edge Functions are faster but have a more limited runtime (no Node.js APIs). This tradeoff is invisible until production.
- Self-hosting Next.js requires managing ISR cache invalidation, image optimization (the built-in optimizer needs sharp/libvips), and middleware behavior that differs from Vercel's edge runtime.
- Lock-in risk: Some Next.js features (Partial Prerendering, certain middleware behaviors) are optimized for Vercel. Moving to self-hosted later requires rearchitecting these features.
- Build minutes: 100 hours/month on Hobby, 400 on Pro. Large monorepos with frequent deploys can exceed this.
