  7 FREE AI API/TOOL TIERS YOU CAN USE TODAY BEFORE BUYING ANOTHER AI SUBSCRIPTION If you build agents, bots, research tools or small automations, start with this stack. 1. OpenRouter Use it as the router. It exposes free-priced models in the model list, so you can test routing before paying per token. 2. Google AI Studio / Gemini API Good for prototypes, evals, long-context tests, and agent experiments. Check the free tier before you burn paid credits elsewhere. 3. Cloudflare Workers AI Best when you want inference close to your app. The useful part is not just “free AI” — it sits inside the same place you can deploy Workers. 4. GroqCloud Use it when speed matters. Great for bots, voice loops, extraction, and any workflow where slow responses kill the demo. 5. GitHub Models Best for prototyping inside the GitHub flow. If your code, prompts, and tests already live there, this removes friction. 6. Tavily Research/search API for agents. Free plan shows 1,000 API credits/month, useful for browsing agents and research bots. 7. ElevenLabs Voice layer. Free plan shows 10k credits/month, enough to test narration, agents with voice, and demo content. > My rule: never build production on a free tier first. > Use free access to test: - latency - rate limits - output quality - tool calling fit - billing behavior - whether your agent actually needs the premium model Then pay only for the part that survives real usage. Most people skip this and buy 3 subscriptions before they even know which API call matters.

  Have you accidentally blocked yourself from AI search? OpenAI/Claude's searchbots get blocked more often than any other crawler, usually as a side effect of generic robots.txt templates, not intentional policy. >>The fix: -Open your robots.txt if you have one (go to yourdomain .com/robots.txt) -Remove any rules blocking OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, or GPTBot. Instead add: User-agent: * Allow: / -If you're using Cloudflare, check your bot management settings - set to 'Do not block (allow crawlers)' -If you're on a managed host, check their crawler settings too, many block non-Google bots by default If you're blocking those bots, you don't exist in AI search. Have you done this?

  @FBIPhiladelphia In Georgia they inputted Datalayers to cache and control. They then gather DNS and block the original government domain. They create a clone using Cloudflare London and Amazon. Then they wait 7 days. . . You know why. Then they activate it and viola a compromised Amazon fake government domain using a pre appointed L3 contractor who hired DEI employees are at the wheel with IT who ask the REF NAMED “Raj” Z and Kash’s buddy, who to blame for breaches is the GSA Zone 4 IC3.

  @BenjaminFlatz Stealth helps, but most Cloudflare failures are environment issues: IP reputation, geo, sticky sessions, and consistent browser state. IPLoop provides the residential network layer so Playwright/Scrapy stacks don’t fail just because the traffic looks wrong.

  Why Crest Fundgrove and this setup are fake Classic 'fake' pattern: "AI trading bot" with impossible claims (e.g., 85%+ accuracy, easy passive profits, minimal effort). Real markets don't work this way consistently. Minimum deposit around $250 (common in these scams). They often show fake profits in your "account" to encourage more deposits, then make withdrawals difficult or impossible (claiming fees, taxes, or needing more money to "unlock"). No real regulation: Reviews couldn't verify proper licensing with Canadian regulators (IIROC/CSA). Legitimate platforms targeting Canadians are transparent about this. Fake testimonials and reviews: Their own site has glowing "verified" reviews with inconsistent numbers. YouTube "reviews" are mostly affiliate promo videos (they earn commissions on deposits/signups). Related 'fake' service reports: Similar names (e.g., Crest Maverick Broker) have Reddit complaints about fake profits followed by withdrawal blocks or demands for more money. The weird domain + tracking params: Legitimate financial companies do not use domains like "hetouchesitdies dot com" or heavy affiliate cloaking like this. This is infrastructure for running mass scam ads. The Cloudflare content you may have seen on the page is likely because these 'fake' operations often use Cloudflare for hosting/CDN/protection (or content cloaking). It doesn't make it legitimate.

  i don't buy the "ai search replaces Google" thesis. the data says the opposite is happening. Cloudflare Radar, may 2026: every ai chatbot — ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity — sends 0.29% of global search referrals. Google sends 87.63%. 301-to-1. Anthropic's ClaudeBot crawls 11,122 pages for every human visit it returns vs Google's 5:1. Alphabet Q1 2026 filing: Google search revenue $60.4B, +19% yoy, up from +17% in Q4. ai overviews hit 2.5B monthly users; ai mode crossed 1B. alphabet says ai overviews monetize at rates "similar to traditional search" (june 2026 investor presentation). the kill-google thesis is showing up as negative signal in the actual p&l. Perplexity — the consensus poster child — killed its entire ad business in feb (Financial Times, The Verge). ads generated $20K against $34M revenue. exec quote: "a user would just start doubting everything." a company that can't make advertising work cannot disrupt a $60B/quarter advertising business. the consensus pusher worth countering specifically — @sarahdingwang at a16z, who led Exa's $250M Series C at $2.2B in may. her line: "agents will search the web more than humans this year. soon orders of magnitudes more." historical analog — Netscape 1994-98. the next platform that would reduce windows to "a poorly debugged set of device drivers." 80% share, record ipo. microsoft bundled IE for free. netscape sold to AOL for scrap. the company that captured the value was the one everyone thought netscape would displace — Google, founded 1998 — the services layer above the commodity. counter-position: ai search isn't replacing Google. Google is becoming ai search. standalone players are fighting netscape's war while the incumbent absorbs the tech into a surface 2.5B people already use. investor read: Exa at $2.2B and Perplexity at $22B are priced for a market-share takeover the referral data says isn't happening. the smarter bet is the layer that monetizes the ai-overview expansion Google is driving.

  @Howaboua You have to install their multiple mcp servers for that, check out the docs. I’ve been ******* with it for a few days and ported it into just about every harness. The timeout out errors and it randomly spitting out Chinese is funny. I did jailbreak that **** though via cloudflare

  DownWithBigBrother (@DWBB1984) reported 35 minutes ago

  @ultrasxiv Fair on bandwidth being a real cost, but the 2GB figure is a long way out. Cheapest DO droplet includes 500GB+ outbound, Hetzner 20TB+. At 600-700GB household use you’re a pound or two over on DO, zero on Hetzner. Stays around the base £4-5 for most, not £300. And “un-bannable” was the precise word, not hyperbole. A commercial VPN is bannable because it’s a named brand with known IPs, a company that can be pressured or blocked. That’s the weakness. Self-hosting removes the target entirely. There’s no technical category called “a VPS used as a VPN.” It’s a rented server running standard encryption (WireGuard, IPsec), the same protocols carrying every bank settlement, ATM link and corporate tunnel on earth. To ban it you’d have to block those protocols (killing Visa, every corporate VPN, all remote work) or blacklist the datacentre IP ranges (AWS, Hetzner, OVH) that host the actual internet: payment gateways, banking backends, Stripe, Cloudflare, gov services. You can’t separate “server someone might tunnel through” from “server running the shop you’re buying from.” The second and third-order effects would cripple e-commerce, open banking and logistics, all riding the same cloud backbone. That’s the sovereignty point. You can ban a brand. You can’t ban the capability of renting a server and encrypting your own traffic, not without taking modern commerce down with it.

  DD: Long term holdings. $NET cloudflare and why it's important in the age of agents ELI5: The world is moving towards agent. Big industries need better cloud bot protection, developers need LLM computing on the edge. Cloudflare provides the most afforadable option for both, even heavy aws users are using cloudflare for these purposes. What is Cloudflare? For the technically challenged or pre-med professionals, Cloudflare is a web infrastructure and security company that acts as a protective, performance-enhancing shield between a website and its visitors by providing services like content delivery networks (CDNs), DDoS mitigation, and secure domain routing. TL;DR: For the simple folks, it's that **** that pops up with the CAPTCHA to make sure you're not a bot. For developers, it's that **** that makes your sites fast and secure from bots. What is Cloudflare's growing revenue? Application Security and Content Delivery Network (CDN). What is a Content Delivery Network? A CDN is basically a network of servers used to store files closer to its users for faster retrieval. Imagine an app creates a backend database storing all its images on AWS based in US-East. A CDN will then copy the most commonly used images in that S3 database and duplicate them across multiple regions (Asia, Europe, US-East). When an app makes a service request, it will make the request to Cloudflare first. Cloudflare then uses its internal logic to determine if the data needed is in a nearby Cloudflare edge server (on the edge) or if it needs to get it from the main database in US-East. This is called storage on the edge. This CDN mechanism is a relic of Web 2.0, but it will become significantly more important in the age of AI. Now, instead of storing images, large AI providers will be storing entire LLM contexts on the edge. So instead of training specialized ML models to do a specific task, app companies can use a general-usage LLM with a stored context for that specific task, and it will be fast, too. This mechanism is called Prefix Caching or Prompt Caching. By doing this, it makes the LLM responses almost instantaneous. So all your consumer apps that use LLMs—like CALai, Duolingo, Grok, etc.—are most likely already using this process. Beyond simply storing data on the edge, the industry is shifting toward deploying entire servers and specialized AI models locally. A major component of this architecture relies on LLM routing. Instead of hosting massive, resource-heavy models on every single edge device or regional server, companies are deploying highly optimized, lightweight router models at the edge. These local routers analyze incoming user prompts to determine the most efficient way to handle them. If a task is simple, the edge model processes it instantly to minimize latency and eliminate cloud compute costs. If the task requires deep reasoning or a massive knowledge base, the router intelligently forwards the request to a larger cloud-hosted model. Additionally, these edge routers leverage tool calling, which allows them to execute local APIs, query regional databases, or trigger specific code workflows without needing to round-trip back to a centralized data center. Moving from simple edge storage to localized edge intelligent compute represents a massive paradigm shift. It allows enterprises to scale AI applications efficiently, safeguard data privacy, and drastically slash infrastructure costs. Cloudflare Security in the Age of Agents This one is simple. You know that Cloudflare CAPTCHA that pops up when you're entering a website or checking out with a credit card? Websites PAY for that CAPTCHA. And they pay a lot. These features block spam, bots, and DDoS attacks. When you move your mouse to click the CAPTCHA, Cloudflare uses proprietary logic that determines you're human by calculating how fast your mouse moved, the angle you moved it, how long you waited, and any other actions you took. Sometime in the 2010s, every website figured out that paying for this small puzzle CAPTCHA was more cost-effective than getting DDoS'd by bots, so almost every single site adopted it. The CAPTCHA is only one of Cloudflare's products in its security suite to block bots from websites, but the overarching theme is the same for all its features: blocking bots. Well, it's 2026 now, and web traffic across the board has increased, mostly driven by AI and AI agents. Automated web traffic has increased by 600% in 2026 alone. Guess who is positioned perfectly for this? Cloudflare. Not only is Cloudflare blocking bot traffic, but it's also getting paid by them. Cloudflare is releasing a new product (Pay Per Crawl) that allows website owners and Cloudflare to get paid for LLMs crawling their content. Cloudflare is simply winning by creating the gates for web traffic and now charging a toll fee for bots to use them. Cloudflare is direct play on internet traffic, which is a correlating play on ai agents and LLM adoption and usage. If you think people will continue to use ai agents and LLM, then cloudflare is your guy. Cloudflare valuation has dropped recently because of the layoffs due to ai, even though revenue has sped up. This drop was more of emotional sell off than a fundamental one. It's valuation has already bounced back. (Cloudflare is trading at 235 as of this post, I bought in earlier in the 190s for a swing trade after the bogus layoff dips, wish i bought in more)

  When I built d1-studio, I was still early in my transition from UX to development. At first, I just wanted the simplest stack possible. Something lean. Something affordable. Something I could build with fast. Like many new devs, I started with the familiar stack: Next.js. Supabase. Vercel. AI helping me along the way. Supabase was great to get started. I still like it. But as I built more products, I started noticing the small costs and tradeoffs that you only understand after shipping. Storage. Egress. Deployment limits. The usual “newbie learns the hard way” stuff. That pushed me to look for a stack that fit how I wanted to build. Then I found Cloudflare. Workers. Pages. D1. R2. Queues. Generous free tier. Simple deployment. Close to the edge. I slowly moved more of my projects there and never really looked back. But there was one thing that kept slowing me down: Cloudflare D1 local development. D1 is great, but working with the database locally felt too slow. I didn’t want to keep jumping between CLI commands just to inspect tables, edit rows, run SQL, or check data while building. I also didn’t want a tool that required a long setup. My thinking was simple: The database is already in my Cloudflare project. The wrangler.toml is already there. Why can’t a studio just detect it and work? That became the trigger for D1 Studio. A native database studio for Cloudflare D1. No complicated setup. No extra database connection string. No heavy workflow. Just run it inside your project and start working with your D1 database faster. You can inspect tables, edit data, run SQL, and work with local or remote D1 without fighting the CLI every few minutes. It started as a tool I needed for myself. Now it’s getting used by other Cloudflare developers too. This week it hit 311 weekly downloads. Not a huge number in the grand scheme of things, but for me it means a lot. Because this is the first product I built that truly came from my own pain. Not a random idea. Not a trend. Not something I forced. Just a problem I kept hitting until I finally built the tool I wished existed. That’s been the biggest lesson for me as I move from design into development: The best products are often not born from brainstorming. They come from friction. Something feels slower than it should. Something takes too many steps. Something breaks your flow. And eventually you think: “There has to be a better way.” That’s how D1 Studio started. And seeing people use it for their own Cloudflare projects is still one of the best feelings.

  @David_mduw Spin it up, yes. Understand what you built, or what you may have built wrong, not so much. The issues for the non-technical user are going to be things like not understanding when they are trying to build on a server-less platform like Cloudflare, when in fact, they are prompting their way into a site that really needs server side processes. The LLM may or may not point this out to the user, but it will continue trying to build it anyway if the user keeps prompting.
