Sanity is a fully customizable, developer-first content platform that treats content as structured data. Empower your team to build complex, scalable digital experiences with ultimate flexibility and tailored workflows.

Sanity's key advantage over Hygraph is its fully customizable content studio, enabling real-time collaborative editing with live updates—allowing multiple editors simultaneous access and developers complete flexibility to tailor workflows and interfaces.

Sanity offers real-time collaborative editing, enabling multiple users to simultaneously edit content, providing instant synchronization and live presence indicators, a powerful collaboration capability not available in Hygraph.
Sanity's schema-as-code lets developers define content structures directly in JavaScript or TypeScript, offering greater flexibility and version control compared to Hygraph's visual schema builder, which restricts modeling to predefined UI options.
Sanity enabled PUMA to create a single source of truth for content so they can move faster, create innovative, multi-channel, digital campaigns, and achieve a holistic brand across markets.
