Vercel adds Thinking Machines' Inkling 2 Small to AI Gateway

Vercel's changelog says Inkling 2 Small, a multimodal reasoning model from Thinking Machines, is now served through AI Gateway. The model accepts text and images and returns text, and is positioned for extended coding work, tool use, visual reading of charts and interfaces, and producing documents and spreadsheets. Developers reference it as thinkingmachines/inkling-2-small. Vercel says the model can also be selected inside Claude Code, Codex and Cursor after installing the latest Vercel CLI and running setup. Gateway access includes usage and cost tracking, retries, failover, routing rules and per-key budgets. Vercel states it passes through provider pricing without markup and charges no platform fee on inference, including bring-your-own-key requests.
