No SLA was found, three models moved to paid-only access on 28 July 2026 with no notice, and several docs pages still use a model retired in May.\n\n**StepFun API.** StepFun's API serves Step 5 Preview with a 1M-token context, video input, strict JSON Schema output and published per-token prices, documented in Markdown with an llms.txt. The model is a preview with no release date found, there's no free allowance or SLA, and the terms and privacy policy leave room to train on customer data.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Cloudflare Workers AI\n\n1. Check the model page before calling. Seven models need Workers Paid or AI Gateway credits and return 403 with code 5035 on the Free plan\n2. Read the internal code on a 429. 3036 means the day's 10,000 free neurons are spent until 00:00 UTC, 3040 means capacity, so retry later\n3. Set `options.rejectIfBusy` to fail fast, or add `?queueRequest=true` for the batch route when the answer can wait\n4. Send the same `x-session-affinity` value on every turn of a session to reach the prefix cache and the cached-input price\n5. Keep paid frontier models under 20 requests a minute per model, or 50 with prepaid AI Gateway credits\n\n### StepFun API\n\n1. Set `max_tokens` yourself. It defaults to unlimited on Step 5 Preview, and reasoning tokens are billed as output\n2. Use `response_format` with `type: json_schema` and `strict: true` when the shape matters. JSON Mode alone isn't schema-checked\n3. Back off and retry on 429, 500, 503 and 504. The docs give no Retry-After header or backoff schedule\n4. Expect HTTP 451 or `finish_reason: content_filter` when content fails StepFun's review, and don't retry the same input\n5. Use api.stepfun.ai for the international platform. api.stepfun.com is the China platform with yuan pricing\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Cloudflare Workers AI or StepFun API?\n\nCloudflare Workers AI scores 68.3 (B) on agent readiness against StepFun API's 44.4 (E), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Cloudflare Workers AI and StepFun API need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Cloudflare Workers AI and StepFun API without installing anything?\n\nYes.
