Cloudflare AI Gateway

Gateway · Cloudflare
Cloudflare AI Gateway sits between your app and the AI providers you already use. It adds analytics, caching, rate limiting and logs, and you can keep your own provider keys. Optional Unified Billing lets you prepay Cloudflare and get one bill for several major providers and Workers AI.
The core gateway is free. For accounts that created their first gateway before September 24, 2026, the free Workers plan stores up to 100,000 logs across all gateways and the paid plan 10,000,000 per gateway. Unified Billing adds 5% to credit purchases, so $100 of credit costs $105. It is less of a model marketplace than OpenRouter: it mainly adds controls to providers you choose yourself.
