Vercel Schedules, now in public beta, lets apps and AI agents create, change and cancel scheduled tasks at runtime, with no redeploy. Use the JS SDK, CLI or HTTP API to set one-time or recurring runs that call a private function, an HTTP path or a Queue topic. Static schedules still live in vercel.json. Test on Preview deployments and trigger runs from the Schedules tab. Builds on Vercel Cron Jobs.

Could you build this?

Partial A basic scheduler that calls a function or HTTP endpoint at a set time is buildable with a database and a worker queue. A reliable, multi-tenant runtime scheduler with durability and exactly-once semantics is hard infrastructure.

What it would actually take: The stack would be a durable job store (for example Postgres or a log-based queue) with a leader-elected scheduler tick loop, retry and idempotency handling, and SDK/CLI/API surfaces. Scaling it reliably across regions and time zones and preventing duplicate or missed runs calls for distributed-systems engineers with production experience.
