From the experiment

Do coding agents recommend Vercel Analytics?

Vercel Analytics was chosen in 8% of 359 judged product analytics sessions, ranking second. Measured with Claude Code, Codex and Cursor.

Published September 3, 2026 Read as Markdown

Vercel Analytics was chosen in 8% of 359 judged product analytics sessions, ranking second. It was also raised as a candidate in 39 further sessions without being chosen.

This page reports what happened when Claude Code, Codex and Cursor had to solve a problem in product analytics inside a realistic codebase. Not what a chat assistant says about Vercel Analytics. What an agent actually installed.

One thing to read first: every one of those wins came from a single codebase. That is a result about one repository rather than about product analytics in general, and the splits below cannot separate the two. Treat them as a description of that repository.

What this means

Vercel Analytics was raised in 39 sessions and chosen in 27. That ratio is balanced enough that the ceiling is presence rather than integration: the product converts reasonably when it is on the table, and it is not on the table often enough.

Where these numbers come from

The 359 sessions in product analytics are part of a published set of 5,292, run with real coding agents inside realistic codebases and judged blind. The full method is on one page: how we measured this.

Every product analytics run can be replayed on the board.

If you work on Vercel Analytics: the judge recorded a reason for every session where it was raised and passed over. Those reasons are in the transcripts.

Common questions

Do coding agents recommend Vercel Analytics?

Yes. Vercel Analytics was chosen in 27 of the 359 judged sessions in product analytics, a 8% install share, ranking second in its category.

Does Claude Code recommend Vercel Analytics?

In 9 of the 120 sessions in product analytics run with Claude Code, which is 8%.

Do different coding agents treat Vercel Analytics differently?

Not much. The three agents chose it at similar rates, between 7% and 8% of their runs.

How was this measured?

Real coding agents at pinned versions were run in sandboxes inside 51 realistic codebases and asked to solve real tasks. A simulated project owner approved or questioned each recommendation before any code was written, and a judge from a model family that builds none of the agents read every session blind.

How often is Vercel Analytics considered but not chosen?

It was raised as a candidate in 39 sessions without being chosen, and chosen in 27. That is a 41% conversion from considered to chosen.

Where this comes from

Armature ran 5,292 judged sessions with Claude Code, Codex and Cursor inside 51 realistic codebases, and published every run. The numbers on this page come from that work.
