API tokens cannot be limited to one gateway, the service terms take third-party models outside Cloudflare's DPA, no SLA names the product, and error codes changed on 6 October 2026 with same-day notice.\n\n**GroqCloud.** Free plan with no card, at 30 requests a minute and 1,000 a day on gpt-oss. Four model shutdown dates between 2026-07-17 and 2026-09-21, with no stated minimum notice.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Cloudflare AI Gateway\n\n1. Use the REST API at `api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/ai/v1` with a token holding Workers AI Read. A token with only an AI Gateway permission returns 401 with code 10000\n2. Send `cf-aig-gateway-id` on every Workers AI (`@cf/`) call and on dynamic routes. Without it a dynamic route resolves against the default gateway and returns 404\n3. Set `cf-aig-collect-log: false` or `cf-aig-collect-log-payload: false` on sensitive requests. Logging of prompts and responses is on by default\n4. Treat a 429 as a rate limit or a spent budget and a 401 with code 2009 as a rejected provider key. Do not retry a 2009\n5. Set `byok_only` on the gateway or send `cf-aig-no-wholesale: true` to stop a request without a provider key falling through to paid Unified Billing credits\n\n### GroqCloud\n\n1. Call `/models` at start-up. Four model ids stopped working this quarter\n2. Read `retry-after` on a 429 and the `x-ratelimit-remaining-tokens` header before the next call\n3. Free plan allows 8,000 tokens a minute on gpt-oss, so keep prompts small or batch them\n4. Don't build on Qwen 3.8 27B. It's a preview and previews can go at short notice\n5. Treat a 498 as Flex capacity and retry later; 5xx responses aren't billed\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Cloudflare AI Gateway or GroqCloud?\n\nGroqCloud scores 75.6 (BB) on agent readiness against Cloudflare AI Gateway's 66.8 (B), and leads in 4 of 7 scored categories. Cloudflare AI Gateway leads on schema \u0026 documentation and payments \u0026 pricing.\n\n### Do Cloudflare AI Gateway and GroqCloud need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Cloudflare AI Gateway and GroqCloud without installing anything?\n\nYes. Cloudflare AI Gateway has a hosted endpoint at https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/{account_id}/ai and GroqCloud at https://api.groq.com/openai/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cloudflare-ai-gateway-vs-groq.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/cloudflare-ai-gateway-vs-groq.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"cloudflare-ai-gateway\", \"b\": \"groq\"}`.
