Tom Occhino
Let’s build with v0 in real time. We’re going LIVE with Tom Occhino, Chief Product Officer at Vercel, to explore vibe coding and take a hands-on look at v0, Vercel’s AI-powered development platform for building apps faster. We’ll show v0 live and walk through how it turns a simple prompt into a real, shippable interface. Tom will also explain what “vibe coding” actually looks like in practice, including how teams are using it today and where it fits into modern development workflows. What we’ll cover: ⚡ You’ll see a live build using v0, from the first prompt to a working app. 🧠 We’ll break down what vibe coding means and why so many teams are experimenting with it. 🔐 Tom will share how Vercel thinks about AI-assisted development, including security, developer experience, and scale. 🧭 We’ll talk about product, community, and where the Vercel ecosystem is headed next. ❓ We’ll wrap with live Q&A and take questions from the chat. If you’re building products, shipping web apps, or thinking about how AI fits into your workflow, this session will give you a clear, practical look at what’s possible.

Hey, hey, [clears throat] >> hey. What's up everybody? How are you? Good to see everyone. I don't know why I said how are you. What a weird way to start. I was looking away and then I came. >> Let's get the engagement in the chat. Let's >> see you. Welcome as always, humans, to the Neuron live. Uh Corey here with with our good buddy Grant. And uh we're super excited about today and think this one's going to be a lot of fun. Grant, did the email go out? >> It did. So we should have everybody
piling in. >> Okay. Excellent. Excellent. Excellent. Um [snorts] we're really excited about today. uh I don't know how many of you are familiar but uh with Versel but they have this this awesome hosting platform and all of these other things but they've also got this tool called V0 that is essentially their coding platform and I've personally been using this for a little while now couple three weeks something like that working on some
projects just trying some stuff out and as these go it's been quite possibly the most intuitive I've found yet as a guy who is absolutely not a software engineer, a developer, a coder or any of the things. Uh it has been really intuitive for me like I was able to tell it, hey, I don't know any of this. I need you to if you have something and you need me to come get it, be clear. And uh this this tool does that really
well. gives me steps by step by steps and I go back and forth with it and uh it seems to know what I want when I ask for it, which is pretty amazing. >> But >> we got a couple comments in the chat already, Corey. So, your your how are you was was well served. Someone said uh we're the GOAT newsletter, which [laughter] I respect. I I deeply respect that. And >> T Chatam says, "Looking forward to seeing Vibe Coding in action. I have never heard of Versel, but a friend of
mine thinks highly of it." Yeah, it is. It I I only hear good things from devs. I've only had uh a good time using it myself. So, it's >> one of our funniest moments ever in a recording happened around it, too. We were talking to >> Ilia Pulisukin who had uh [snorts] uh he was one of the original researchers on the attention is all you need paper that kind of started the transformer that did start the transformer movement. and we had him on talking about near protocol, near AI,
the things he's working on. And in there, we asked him, you know, what tools do you use? And he said, "Vzero." And in harmony, Grant and I both said, "Oo." [laughter] And everybody at the office made fun of us. Uh, so it was a lot of fun. >> And, uh, but you know, with with no further ado here, I'd like to bring up Versel's [snorts] chief product officer, Tom Ochino. Tom is a great guy. Met him in Vegas. We got to chat a little bit. What's up, Tom?
How are you? >> What's up, guys? Corey Grant. So, so great to see you guys. Um, I'm actually very excited to be here. I mean, you teed that up really, really nicely. I hope I can live up to the hype. >> Oh, you got it. You're going to do you're going to do fine. The tool will do the rest. >> Easily. Easily. Um, we do want to start with before we get into all the demos and everything, just kind of ask a couple questions. Um, for folks who've never used Versel, you know, what's the 30 second pitch on why developers love it? Um, and you could talk a little bit
