v0
Produces interface prototypes very quickly; the free plan limits the number of messages.
Vercel's tool for generating React interfaces from plain-language descriptions, exporting ready-to-use code.
Overview
v0 is Vercel's AI agent that creates interfaces and full-stack apps from natural-language descriptions. You can describe an idea or provide a wireframe or mockup, then watch the app being built in the preview pane.
v0 works well with Next.js, Tailwind and shadcn/ui, can connect to APIs and databases, and can diagnose and fix code errors itself. Design Mode lets you select elements to edit visually, and apps can be deployed to Vercel's infrastructure or synced with GitHub.
For business owners and marketers who do not code, v0 is a fast way to turn an idea into a working demo before handing it to the engineering team to finish.

Real-world example
The owner of a bubble tea chain in Bien Hoa wants to test an idea for a pre-order page for regular customers. She goes to v0 and describes a page with a menu list, size selection, notes and an order button, then views the preview. She uses Design Mode to change the button color to the brand color, then publishes to send the link to staff to try before hiring the engineering team to build the official version.
Tips & notes
The more specific the prompt, the better
State the screens, data fields and desired style clearly.
Check the code before real use
Look at the Code tab and ask a dev to review if the app handles customer data.
Mind the free plan limits
The Free plan limits messages per day, so bundle requests into one clear prompt.
