For developers

Build fast. Deploy from the terminal.

Edge is built by developers, for developers: a proper CLI, a REST API with nothing held back, and an MCP server for your coding agent. None of the enterprise bloat.

Free DNS, free CDN and Storage tiers, zero egress. No card required.

Developer experience first

The friction you’ve stopped noticing

Most clouds are built for procurement teams. Edge is built for the person holding the keyboard — and increasingly, for the agent next to them.
  1. 01

    The API is a cut-down version of the console.

    Edge’s REST API is the one the console and CLI use. If you can click it, you can script it — VMs, CDN, DNS, Storage and Shield.

  2. 02

    A weekend project needs a registrar, WHOIS forms and a day of propagation.

    Claim a test.network subdomain for $1 a month. The zone is live in seconds, with full records and SSL through the CDN.

  3. 03

    The bandwidth line on the invoice is bigger than the servers.

    Egress is free on every product, at every scale. You pay for what you run, not for people reading it.

  4. 04

    Your coding agent can write the app, but it can’t ship it.

    One line of MCP config gives it native Edge tools, with the products, permissions and monthly budget you choose.

One task, four ways in

HTTPS, terminal, console or AI agent — everything on Edge is scriptable, and every route lands on the same API. Here’s the same VM, created four ways.

Create a 2 vCPU · 4 GB Ubuntu VM in London

A single binary for macOS, Linux and Windows. Table, JSON or YAML output, and every action is logged with CLI attribution.

An API key (ek_live_…) via edge auth login or EDGE_API_KEY.

How Edge fits

Built around how you already ship

Your agent, your side projects and your production VMs all run on the same account, the same API and the same sensible defaults.

Agent ready

Hand the deploy to your coding agent

Give your agent an Edge access code — or just npx @edge-network/mcp — and it can deploy your app, manage DNS and watch your infrastructure without you leaving the editor.
  • Discovery-first: one call tells it what it can do, what exists and what’s left in the budget
  • Budget-aware, with soft or hard monthly caps per agent
  • Projects group an app’s resources for health checks and clean teardown
  • Every response carries a plain-English summary it can relay to you

No domain? No problem

A real test domain, live in seconds

Pick a subdomain of test.network for $1 a month. Edge runs the parent zone, so delegation is live the moment you register — no registrar, no nameserver dance, no waiting.
  • Instant: your DNS zone is ready in seconds
  • Full control: A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT — every record type
  • SSL included: certificates issued automatically with Edge CDN
  • Points anywhere, on Edge or off. Up to 5 per account

Sensible defaults, full control

Start with the safe choice. Change anything later.

New resources arrive configured the way you’d set them up yourself. When you need to go deeper, every setting is one flag, one field or one call away.
  • Automatic SSL for every endpoint
  • Private networking between resources in a region
  • Firewall rules and security groups
  • Snapshots and scheduled backups
  • Monitoring and alerting built in
  • API keys with expiry, and team access controls

Case study: Agency

Code+Ink

One developer, every client, one platform

Code+Ink is a consultancy building decoupled React and headless-CMS projects for clients such as Bletchley Park and the Royal Institution. Juggling client infrastructure across providers was eating development time. Consolidating on Edge cut deploy complexity — and zero egress keeps costs predictable when a client’s traffic spikes.
