Cloudflare Workers AI: 10,000 Free Neurons a Day, Then $0.011
As of October 2026, Cloudflare Workers AI gives every account 10,000 Neurons per day at no charge, and anything above that costs $0.011 per 1,000 Neurons on the Workers Paid plan. The free allocation resets daily at 00:00 UTC. If you only need the number to plan around: 10,000 free Neurons per day is 300,000 over a 30-day month, and the first 1,000,000 Neurons beyond that cost $11. This post…
Cloudflare Workers AI offers a daily allocation of 10,000 Neurons for free to all accounts, which resets at 00:00 UTC each day. This allocation counts down and resets each day, so a job that runs past midnight will be spread across two daily allocations. After the free daily limit, each additional 1,000 Neurons costs $0.011 on the Workers Paid plan, with a minimum monthly charge of $5.
The free daily allocation equates to 300,000 Neurons over a 30-day month, with the first 1,000,000 Neurons exceeding the free limit costing $11 at this rate.
The billing system is separate from the daily allocation. After the free Neurons are used, additional Neurons are charged at $0.011 per 1,000. Workers Free accounts receive the same 10,000 daily Neurons as Paid accounts, but going beyond the free allocation requires the Workers Paid plan.
When using Cloudflare Workers with the AI Workers AI service, a minimum of $5 per month is required for a Paid account. The pricing for different models varies significantly in terms of per-token costs, with some models costing over 49 times more for input processing than others. For example, the @cf /deepseek-ai/deepseek-v4-pro-0813 model is priced at $1.320 per million input tokens, while the @cf /meta/llama-3.2-1b-instruct model is only $0.027.
