An organisation must be approved by CoreWeave's sales team before any token exists, and no request rate limits were found in the reviewed documentation.\n\n**Northflank.** OpenAPI 3.0 with over 100 paths, enums and `per_page`, `page` and `cursor` on every list. No scale to zero for services; minimum instances must be at least 1.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### CoreWeave\n\n1. Create an API access token at console.coreweave.com/tokens with an expiry and send it as `Authorization: Bearer` to https://api.coreweave.com\n2. Add GPUs by applying a NodePool resource (`compute.coreweave.com/v1alpha1`) to a CKS cluster with `instanceType` and `targetNodes`. `instanceType` can't be changed afterwards\n3. Set `targetNodes` to 0 or delete the Node Pool when a job ends. Nodes are whole 8-GPU machines billed by the hour\n4. Never pass `dry_run` to the MCP tool `coreweave_kubectl_apply` expecting a preview. The reference says the parameter is ignored and the manifest is applied\n5. Use a separate Forge API key and https://api.inference.wandb.ai/v1 for Serverless Inference. A CoreWeave API access token doesn't work there\n\n### Northflank\n\n1. Issue the agent a team token under an API role limited to one project, not a personal token\n2. Read `x-ratelimit-remaining` and wait `x-ratelimit-reset` seconds on a 429; the default is 1,000 calls an hour\n3. Page lists with `per_page` up to 100 and the returned `cursor` instead of numbered pages\n4. Use a job, not a service, for anything that finishes; services bill until paused or deleted\n5. Fetch any docs page with .md appended to get Markdown\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, CoreWeave or Northflank?\n\nCoreWeave and Northflank score within a point of each other on agent readiness, 61.5 (C) and 61.3 (C). Northflank leads on reliability and payments \u0026 pricing.\n\n### Can an agent call CoreWeave and Northflank without installing anything?\n\nYes. CoreWeave has a hosted endpoint at https://api.coreweave.com and Northflank at https://api.northflank.com/v1.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/coreweave-vs-northflank.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/coreweave-vs-northflank.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"coreweave\", \"b\": \"northflank\"}`.
