Business plan is outlined on https://oven.sh/:

Oven will provide incredibly fast serverless hosting & continuous integration for backend & frontend JavaScript apps — and it will be powered by Bun.

It will support popular frontend frameworks like Next.js, Vite, SvelteKit, SolidStart and many more — along with backend frameworks like Express, Fastify, NestJS and more.

The plan is to run our own servers on the edge in datacenters around the world. Oven will leverage end-to-end integration of the entire JavaScript stack (down to the hardware) to make new things possible.

Considering there are dozens of mainstream serverless hosting providers out there already, with more popping up every day and pricing going down to ~free, I can't really see this being a viable business model anymore.
I mean, it can if they do it better than everyone else and eat their lunch
DX is the key differentiator IMO.
So it’s competing with vercel?
