| Pricing | $10/mo per repository (Starter, annual billing rate) · free tier: Free $0/mo per repository: 1 user, 4M API calls/mo, 100 GB CDN/mo, 2 locales, Visual Page Builder, unlimited documents/types/assets, image optimization, Migration API — no overages allowed (exceeding limits locks the repository) | $49/month (Builder) · free tier: Free $0/month, permanent, no credit card: 1 Project, 1 Bucket, 2 team members, 50 object types, 1,000 Objects, 300k in/300k out AI tokens, 1 Agent + 1 Workflow, 10k non-cached + 100k cached API requests, 1GB storage, community (Discord) support |
| Pricing model | Subscription (per repository, tiered with metered overages) | Subscription with credit/usage-based add-ons |
| Best for | A single marketing or corporate website on a Next.js/React front end, with an in-house developer maintaining slices, a marketing team publishing campaign pages frequently, 1–5 languages and predictable traffic; teams of 3–25 fit the $10–$150 rungs, and PoCs or small production sites fit the Free tier. | Small-to-mid developer-led product or marketing teams on Next.js/React that want a zero-ops hosted CMS with AI agents doing content and code work, and agencies running a handful of client sites who can absorb the $199 add-on bundle in a retainer. |
| Avoid if | You have spiky or bot-heavy API traffic and have not pre-emptively disabled default auto-upgrade, run many sites and want pooled quotas, need 9+ locales below an Enterprise budget, want genuinely developer-independent freeform page design, need omnichannel product content rather than website pages, or must cost the AI add-on before committing. | You need revision history, backups, webhooks or localisation included rather than as $199/mo extras; you are bootstrapped and will outgrow the $49 tier; you are an image- or video-heavy publisher; you need large uncached API volume, self-hosting or data residency; or your procurement requires compliance certifications and a defensible reference base. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
