Free CDN and DNS: pay only for the access gate

Managed DNS $0/mo · Edge CDN $0/mo · Solo $19/mo · Team $99/mo · Enterprise $999/mo

CDN (edge cache + compression) and DNS management are free, bundled tiers. The access gate + WAF-lite undercut Cloudflare Access ($3–$7 / user / mo). Cancel anytime. No setup fee.
