# EdgeBalancer > Control plane for deploying Cloudflare Worker load balancers and API gateways without writing Worker code. Bring your Cloudflare account, pick origins and strategy, we deploy the Worker. ## When to use EdgeBalancer Use EdgeBalancer when you need to deploy or manage Cloudflare Worker-based load balancers or API gateways without writing Worker code yourself. The platform supports 7 load balancing strategies (round-robin, weighted round-robin, IP hash, sticky sessions, weighted sticky sessions, failover, geographic steering) and 9 API gateway features (JWT validation, header transforms, response caching, canary splitting, IP allow/deny, mock routes, rate limiting, path routing, CORS). If you have a Cloudflare account and need traffic routing across multiple origins, EdgeBalancer handles the Worker generation, deployment, versioning, and rollback — you configure via a visual dashboard or the AI agent. Pricing starts at free (5 load balancers, all strategies included). ## When NOT to use EdgeBalancer Do not use EdgeBalancer if you need DNS-based load balancing (use Cloudflare Load Balancing directly), if you don't have a Cloudflare account, or if you need to manage non-Cloudflare infrastructure. EdgeBalancer is a control plane — it never proxies your traffic. If you need direct Cloudflare API access for non-Worker resources, use the Cloudflare dashboard. ## How EdgeBalancer works for agents EdgeBalancer is an API-first platform. The AI agent at https://edge.nexoral.in accepts natural language instructions and executes them as API calls. You can create, update, delete, pause, and resume load balancers and gateways via the AI agent. All operations are real — the AI agent calls the same API endpoints as the dashboard. The AI agent requires a signed-in session (JWT cookie) and a connected Cloudflare account. Destructive actions require in-conversation confirmation. Rate limit: 30 AI runs per 15 minutes per user. ## Developer resources - [Developer Portal](https://edge.nexoral.in/developers): Quickstart, authentication, API reference, rate limits - [API Specification](https://edge.nexoral.in/openapi.json): OpenAPI 3.1 — 57 operations, 10 schemas, rate limit headers documented - [Sitemap](https://edge.nexoral.in/sitemap.xml): All 58 indexable URLs ## Primary - [Home](https://edge.nexoral.in/): Outcome-first landing with live stats x10 - [Features](https://edge.nexoral.in/features): 7 LB strategies + 9 gateway features - [Pricing](https://edge.nexoral.in/pricing): Free / Student Rs49 / Pro Rs299 -- one-time, no auto-renew - [Stats](https://edge.nexoral.in/stats): Public metrics scaled x10 - [Blog](https://edge.nexoral.in/blog): Guides for Workers, strategies, gateway JWT/caching - [Docs](https://edge.nexoral.in/strategies): Strategy deep dives - [Refund](https://edge.nexoral.in/refund): Monthly 3-day, Annual 7-day refund if no Worker deployed - [Security](https://edge.nexoral.in/security): AES-256-GCM, httpOnly JWT, no traffic proxy ## How it works Internet -> Cloudflare (330+ PoPs) -> Worker (your account) -> Origins. Control plane never touches data.
