with opus 4.8 launching today, a foundational model has launched on average once every 2 weeks this year 🤯

available on AI Gateway now: https://t.co/Ki6WsEM5WX

[Ming @minglu]

@kirso_ we want to expand our catalogue — is there a model you had in mind?

[Ming @minglu]

stop juggling API keys for every model provider.

access all the leading text, image, video, and speech models through AI Gateway with our new REST API.

it’s not stated vs. revealed preference — when people say they want more friends it means that they want the emotional intimacy of close friendship (that they have with their existing friends) but don’t want to put in the time/effort needed to get a new person to that point.

[Ava @noampomsky]

friendship is the biggest stated preference/revealed preference thing in the world. people often come to me and say “I want more friends” and I’m like “cool talk to more new people” and then I check in three weeks and they’re like “talking to new people is too much effort”

before kids most things you do have a lot of selection factors built in (what you study in college, occupation, the company you work at) especially as someone who mostly hung out in tech/startup circles. but all kinds of people have kids so in some ways interacting with “parents” as a collective group put me in contact with a more different (perhaps more normie) set of people than i previously was around.

@rohindhar we got our place off market a couple years back and i’ve always been suspicious of why the seller did it.

it seemed they didn’t get most of the benefits of going off market. they still had the place staged and we didn’t end up paying their full asking.

[Ming @minglu]

@ilias_yahia @superhighfives @michellechen @CloudflareDev yea! email me -- [email protected]

[Ming @minglu]

@michellechen i got minglu years ago by randomly DMing the person that had it. been trying to get 'ming' but apparently it's a premium handle :(

[Ming @minglu]

@herock @Cloudflare sorry you had to deal with this 😭. we want to rethink dynamic routes. there’s so much potential in the feature but it needs some love currently.

[Ming @minglu]

and one more thing — claude opus 4.7 now live on ai gateway: https://t.co/JrGG6i4h5m

[Ming @minglu]

excited to debut on the cloudflare blog with what we’ve been cooking over on ai gateway: https://t.co/WFCwh2QvKV

run the best models, pay with one bill, and see it all in one place.

lots more to do!

[Ming @minglu]

@InderpreetSingh @_irtefa where possible we tried to keep things consistent, but because we offer models from so many providers with different input parameters, it's hard to get it 100%

[Ming @minglu]

i’m pretty sure irtefa set a record here for most number of partners gotten through legal and procurement in the shortest amount of time.

[Irtefa @_irtefa]

Today the average company calls 3.5 models across multiple providers. That means 3.5 billing dashboards, 3.5 sets of API docs, and no single place to see what you're actually spending. When one provider goes down, you're writing custom failover logic at 2am.

We just shipped something at Cloudflare that changes this. Today we shipped AI Gateway as a unified inference layer at Cloudflare: one API, one line of code to switch between any model from @alibaba_cloud , @AssemblyAI , @BytedanceTalk , @Google , @inworld_ai , @MiniMax_AI , @Kimi_Moonshot , @OpenAI , @PixVerse_ , @recraftai , @runwayml , and @ViduAI_official . Seventy plus models (and growing!), twelve plus providers, one set of credits, automatic failover when a provider goes down.

None of this works without partners who chose to make their models accessible through a shared, open platform instead of walled gardens. Grateful to every one of them for building this with us.
