You Can Just Ship Agents: Architecting for the Agentic Era | Dom Sipowicz, Vercel

Enterprises are moving fast from AI prototypes to production-ready agent systems. Solutions architect Dom Sipowicz explores how modern teams are building reliable, long-running, and observable agents without reinventing orchestration. Using the Vercel AI Cloud and the new Workflow Development Kit, Dom shows you how durability, retries, and human-in-the-loop approvals become first-class features of your architecture. Learn how these patterns make it possible to design, prototype, and scale agents with the same ease as any modern web application.

Why your marketing scripts and cookie banners are ruining your Lighthouse scores | Christopher Burns, Creator of c15t.com, Founder of Consent.io

Most marketing scripts and cookie banners run on the critical path. They block the main thread, delay first paint, and inject third-party code before the page is interactive.

Traditional CMPs often make this worse by synchronously loading vendors, mutating the DOM, and re-hydrating UI after load. The result is slower LCP, higher TBT, and unstable CLS.

c15t takes a different approach by treating consent as infrastructure, not UI. It moves consent logic out of the critical path, loads vendors only after intent, and keeps compliance fast, observable, and performance-safe.

Special thanks to Vercel for sponsoring the event and Metro Bank for hosting!
