I've always admired Cloudflare engineers from afar and am honored to be joining them. There's a lot more Astro can do to help content sites adapt to the changing internet; and with Cloudflare's support we can double down on that mission.

The Human Native acquisition fits Cloudflare's broader push to redefine internet economics: shifting from ad-driven human traffic to programmable monetization for AI agent. It fits in the bigger theme of agent-to-agent payments being the next major commerce unlock.

Human Native was working on solving the original sin of LLMs, giving contributions to creators on the Internet Countless licensing / IP deals have fallen through because they're simply too hard to price. x402 + micropayments might just be a better model
