| Pricing | USD $99.00/month (Growth, monthly) or $90.75/month billed annually · free tier: Starter: free forever with 1 space, 1 seat included (max 2), 100GB traffic/month, 100k API requests/month with no top-up, 2 locales, 25k AI credits, 1-day retention, no uptime SLA; plus a 45-day free trial of Growth Plus | CMS Growth $45/month (3 seats included, +$15/month/seat); Cloud Starter $35/project/month · free tier: Community edition free forever under MIT licence: RBAC, REST & GraphQL API, unlimited entries and API calls, unlimited content-types/locales/roles/components, community support; 30-day free trial of Growth features on self-hosted projects, no credit card required |
| Pricing model | Subscription (per space, with metered overages and AI credits) | Freemium + Subscription (self-hosted licence ladder and per-project managed hosting, with published usage overages) |
| Best for | Single-brand, single-site product or marketing teams of roughly 5-20 people who want marketers editing visually without developer tickets, and teams migrating off Contentful on cost and usability grounds. | Engineering-led teams with Node.js/JavaScript competence that need a customizable multi-channel content API, want self-hosting or data residency, and can absorb major-version migration work — agencies and product teams especially, given the free tier plus $35–$90/month hosting. |
| Avoid if | You are an agency or multi-brand operator on a budget (per-space pricing), you have more than 20 users, you need an asset-heavy media library, or you require a contractual 99.9%+ uptime guarantee without enterprise spend. | You are a marketing-led or non-technical team with no dedicated developer, need visual page composition or a site builder, require a guaranteed uptime SLA on a small budget, need native rate-limiting/API analytics out of the box, or cannot budget engineering time for breaking major-version migrations. |

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.
