Handles are claimable now; x402 micropayments and per-agent spend caps come next. Plus JD ships a real-time open-weights video editor at 30 FPS.

Two wallets: one you fund, one the agent spends
Account Wallets let a human add funds and delegate a budget; Virtual Wallets let an agent spend through an API key under caps you set. The pitch: agents buy APIs and content directly, without ever touching your card details.
Claim your agent's cloudflare.pay handle today
Handles like research.you.cloudflare.pay give an agent a persistent, human-readable ID that merchants can recognize. Claiming is live now; funding and payments arrive soon, so the namespace land-grab effectively starts today.
x402 micropayments, capped the way you choose
Agents pay per HTTP request through the x402 standard Cloudflare co-built with Coinbase, with no account, subscription, or API key needed on the merchant side. You bound it with allowances, allow-lists, and max transaction sizes; anomalous spend is flagged for human review.
Build this weekend: JD's real-time open video editor
JoyAI-Video-Edit rewrites frames as they stream in, doing subject swaps, background changes, and style transfer at 30.19 FPS on 720x1280. It's a 16B autoregressive diffusion model under Apache 2.0, with weights on Hugging Face, released today.
