We'll have a free plan, but in general, no it's not free. Neither is DNS though (it's free for the end user of course, but not the developer, just like Firebase).

Cloudflare would never say (and never has said) "meet serverless DNS", because I'm still paying for a DNS server somewhere over at Cloudflare. Sure, it's a different server, but we are still paying (basically the same amount, if not more) for a server.

The title of this post should be "meet a more client heavy version of WebRTC", because that's what it is.

I challenge you to find a way to use fewer servers... WebRTC depends on them for signaling. We're just providing a tool to make that easier.

"In the real world, WebRTC needs servers..."

Exactly - the title should be "here's an easier way to do WebRTC with less backend code, less servers, and more frontend code", not "meet serverless WebRTC". Can you appreciate the difference between these two statements?
