Cloudflare to launch OHTTP Gateway add-on this fall
Cloudflare announced it will offer an OHTTP Gateway as a paid add-on for customers' zones, allowing businesses to receive Oblivious HTTP traffic without seeing users' IP addresses. The product complements Cloudflare's existing Privacy Gateway relay service, launched in 2022, and is open for waitlist registration ahead of its fall release.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The gateway fills a gap for customers who already run their servers behind Cloudflare and previously couldn't pair that setup with Cloudflare's own relay service, since OHTTP's privacy model requires relay and gateway to be operated independently. This could expand adoption of IP-masking privacy infrastructure among businesses handling sensitive requests, such as health apps or AI inference services, following examples like Flo Health and Apple's Private Cloud Compute cited by Cloudflare.
- Cloudflare is launching an OHTTP Gateway as a paid zone add-on this fall.
- The gateway complements Cloudflare's 2022 Privacy Gateway relay, letting more customers adopt OHTTP.
- OHTTP's design splits trust between relay and gateway so no single party sees both user identity and request content.
