alt Hacker NewsI've been building with Mastra for a couple of weeks now and loving it, so congratulations on reaching 1.0!
It's built on top of Vercel AI elements/SDK and it seems to me that was a good decision.
My mental heuristic is:
Vercel AI SDK = library, low level
Mastra = framework
Then Vercel AI Elements gives you an optional pre built UI.
However, I read the blog post for the upcoming AI SDK 6.0 release last week, and it seems like it's shifting more towards being a framework as well. What are your thoughts on this? Are these two tools going to align further in the future?

Have a ton of respect for the AI SDK team. Initially we only used AI SDK model routing, but now we also have our own built-in model routing as well.
I see each of us having different architectures. AI SDK is more low-level, and Mastra is more integrated with storage powering our studio, evals, memory, workflow suspend/resume etc.
