For Cloudflare, from 🤫 hussh
The edge, open standards, and creators paid on their terms.
Cloudflare runs within about 50ms of most of the internet, champions MCP as a Platinum member of the Agentic AI Foundation, and stands up for creators. 🤫 shares all three convictions: compute close to the person, open agent rails, creators who own their work. We'd love to build the consent-first, agent-to-agent layer of that internet with you.
What Cloudflare and 🤫 make possible.
You build on MCP and are a Platinum member of the Agentic AI Foundation. Open agent standards, no lock-in.
🤫 speaks MCP and A2A, and a person's Agent One will use and offer remote MCP servers on Cloudflare.
Agent-to-agent connections on open rails you champion: the local-connection engine, built on standards.
Pay per crawl, and now pay per use, pays creators on their terms.
🤫 is creator-first. A creator's content is their brand and their biggest asset, to own and grow.
One creator pattern: a creator's 🤫 Agent grants and prices access on the creator's terms.
Workers AI runs serverless inference across 330+ cities, about 50ms from users.
Our distributed edge grid pairs owner-run compute with a global edge front door.
Cloudflare handles global ingress and security, and owned compute does the heavy, private work.
An edge everywhere, one platform, open standards.
Cloudflare is a connectivity cloud: security, performance and a developer platform on one global network, sold by subscription and usage.
Up 34% year over year at about a 73% non-GAAP gross margin. Its CEO calls it the biggest tailwind in the company's history.
As of April 2026, "enough to route more than 20% of the web," across 330+ cities.
Every service runs in every location: compute, security and storage close to people everywhere.
Cloudflare helps anchor the Linux Foundation's Agentic AI Foundation, home of MCP, goose and AGENTS.md.
Serverless AI inference across 330+ cities, with AI Gateway, Vectorize and R2.
From pay per crawl, which blocks AI that will not pay, toward paying publishers when their content creates value.
Edge reach, an integrated platform and a refusal to lock anyone in. The same instincts we build on.
The edge, everywhere
One global anycast network, 330+ cities and 500 Tbps, where every service runs everywhere, under 50ms worldwide.
Workers
Code runs in every location, not a few central regions. The base of the AI and agents stack.
Zero Trust, built in
DDoS, WAF, bot management and a Zero Trust and SASE suite from the same edge. The security a consent-first service needs.
One developer platform
Workers, Workers AI, Durable Objects, Vectorize, R2, AI Gateway and the Agents SDK, designed to work together.
Open standards
A Platinum member of the Agentic AI Foundation, with remote MCP servers and OAuth. Open rails, no lock-in.
Creator independence
Pay per crawl and use-case controls for Search, Agent and Training. Creators paid on their terms.
Where Cloudflare is going.
Every one of these priorities has room for a private agent the person owns.
AI re-platforms the internet
Matthew Prince: "AI is driving a fundamental re-platforming of the Internet… the biggest tailwind we've ever seen."
A sustainable content ecosystem
With most traffic now non-human, Prince wants to move faster "so that a sustainable ecosystem can emerge."
Open agent standards
CTO Dane Knecht: open standards like MCP "ensure anyone can build agents… without the fear of vendor lock-in."
Agentic infrastructure
The Agents SDK, remote MCP servers and an enterprise MCP reference architecture.
Edge AI and Zero Trust
Edge inference and Zero Trust security from the same global network.
Remote MCP, Code Mode and pay per use.
What Cloudflare shipped and announced most recently, and where Agent One plugs in.
Remote MCP servers and the Agents SDK
Shipped: remote MCP servers on Cloudflare with OAuth, and agents on Durable Objects with a built-in MCP client.
Code Mode
Shipped April 2026: an entire API in about 1,000 tokens by turning MCP tools into code, cutting input tokens by up to about 99.9% for large APIs.
Pay per crawl, then pay per use
Charging AI crawlers through HTTP 402 (announced July 2025, private beta), growing toward paying publishers when their content creates value.
Workers AI and AI Gateway
Serverless edge inference, with observability, caching and rate limiting in front of model providers.
Buy together. Build together. Sell together. Take risk together.
We both bet on an internet that is edge-first, built on standards and fair to creators. Here is what we will build on it.
Build: MCP, both ways
Cloudflare runs remote MCP servers with OAuth and is a Platinum AAIF member.
🤫 Agent One will use and offer consent-gated MCP servers on Cloudflare, with a PCHP receipt for every call.
Agent-to-agent connections on open rails, and Code Mode keeps Agent One's tool calls lean.
Build: the edge front door
Workers, Zero Trust, WAF and DDoS protection run within about 50ms of users worldwide.
Agent One's public edge functions, sign-in and security run on Cloudflare, alongside owned compute on the person's devices.
A fast, protected public edge everywhere, while private work stays on hardware the person owns.
Sell: the directory as MCP endpoints
Cloudflare champions discoverable, standard agent connections.
The 🤫 Yellow Pages and each human 🤫 Agent offer a consent-first MCP endpoint other agents can find and reach.
A two-sided, agent-to-agent local-connection surface on shared rails.
Take risk: creator settlement
Pay per crawl charges AI crawlers through HTTP 402, and pay per use is growing toward paying creators when their content creates value.
A pilot we will build together: a creator's 🤫 Agent answers a 402 with a PCHP consent receipt that grants access and sets terms, payment and consent in one request.
A reference pattern for consent-first creator compensation, open for anyone to use.
The people building Cloudflare.
Matthew Prince
Co-founder, CEO and Co-Chair
Leads the AI re-platforming thesis and creator independence: a sustainable, open internet.
Michelle Zatlyn
Co-founder, President and Co-Chair
Leads operations and growth across the connectivity cloud.
Dane Knecht
CTO
Leads the developer and agent platform: MCP, Code Mode and the edge.
An open, edge-first internet that is fair to creators.
Cloudflare speaks of a "re-platforming of the Internet," "no vendor lock-in" and a "sustainable content ecosystem." We say: own your AI, own your data, own your compute, and creators first. Cloudflare's edge in 330+ cities can be the global front door for the Puppy One and Starlink grid, with owned compute doing the heavy work. And 🤫 Agent One is free for life to every federal and state government employee and every past or present service member.
