Cloudflare Agents

Agents 4.1/10

Managed runtime for deploying AI agents on Cloudflare — each agent gets durable state, sessions, scheduling, MCP, and workflows on Durable Objects, deployable from the Agents SDK or the dashboard.

Cloudflare Agents scores 4.1/10 for free value in Agents. The main constraint: Workers Free plan: 100,000 requests/day, 10 ms CPU/invocation, unlimited bandwidth. Durable Objects (which back each agent's state) are included free: 100,000 requests/day and 13,000 GB-s/day of compute. No credit card required. Workers AI inference has a separate free allocation.

Category Agents Kind Managed agent runtime Caveats The free tier runs on lightweight Workers isolates (10 ms CPU/invocation) — agents needing a real container sandbox require Workers Paid. Workers AI tokens and Containers are billed separately. Daily quotas reset, so free usage suits experiments and low-traffic agents, not heavy continuous load. Renewal daily Card required No Eligibility anyone

What you get

Each agent has its own durable state, storage, and lifecycle

Durable Objects available on the free plan specifically to build agents

Built-in scheduling, MCP, workflows, and real-time messaging

Deploy from the Agents SDK or roll out agents in the dashboard

Limitations

  • 100,000 requests/day

    The Workers Free plan caps total requests at 100,000 per day; the quota resets daily and does not roll over.

  • Durable Objects 13,000 GB-s/day

    Each agent's state runs on a Durable Object; free-plan Durable Object compute is capped at 13,000 GB-s/day (plus 100,000 DO requests/day), reset daily.

  • 10 ms CPU/invocation (free)

    Free-plan Workers are limited to 10 ms of CPU time per invocation; CPU-heavy agent steps need the Workers Paid plan.

  • Containers require paid plan

    Agents run on lightweight isolates on the free tier; a real container sandbox (Cloudflare Containers) is a Workers Paid feature.

  • Workers AI billed separately

    Model inference via Workers AI has its own free allocation and then usage-based pricing, separate from the Workers/Durable Objects free tier (or bring your own model provider).
