Cloudflare vs Koyeb
Cloudflare scores higher on the AgentReady, 98/100 against 57/100. They differ on 14 of the 41 signals. Which ones decides whether an agent can adopt them without a person watching.
What each one is
Cloudflare. One platform for your apps, agents, and workforce.
Koyeb. Developer-friendly serverless platform designed to let businesses and developers easily deploy reliable and scalable applications globally, with high-performance infrastructure for AI inference, sandboxes, and microservices on CPUs, GPUs, and accelerators
Where Cloudflare is ahead
Cloudflare passes clear canonical domain, llms.txt published and llms-full.txt / full agent docs, and Koyeb does not. That is discover, whether an agent can find the product at all without being told it exists.
It also holds understand: structured api reference. Koyeb misses it.
And on operate, agent compatibility verified. Koyeb misses it.
Where Koyeb is ahead
Koyeb passes search discoverable and public docs discoverable, and Cloudflare does not. That is discover, whether an agent can find the product at all without being told it exists.
It also holds adopt: no mandatory sales call, fast time to first request, copyable quickstart, official typescript sdk and official python sdk. Cloudflare misses those.
And on operate, canonical workflow succeeds and observable execution. Cloudflare misses those.
What neither does
Both fail openapi / spec quality, authentication documented, request examples provided, response examples provided, errors and status codes documented, limits / constraints documented, programmatic credential creation, structured, predictable output, machine-readable errors, retry behavior documented, idempotency support, rate-limit behavior predictable. If your agent needs any of those, you will be building it yourself either way.
Score, pillar by pillar
The AgentReady splits into four pillars, scored separately, because a product can be easy to find and still impossible to adopt.
Discover. Cloudflare leads 100 to 80. Cloudflare misses search discoverable, public docs discoverable; Koyeb misses clear canonical domain, llms.txt published, llms-full.txt / full agent docs.
Understand is whether an agent can read the docs and work out how the API behaves before calling it. Cloudflare leads 92 to 23. Cloudflare misses openapi / spec quality, authentication documented, request examples provided, response examples provided, errors and status codes documented, limits / constraints documented; Koyeb misses structured api reference, openapi / spec quality, authentication documented, request examples provided, response examples provided, errors and status codes documented, limits / constraints documented.
