Powering exceptional digital experiences everywhere
For the past year I've been obsessed with digging through and testing out different #headlessCMS for the #JAMStack comparing feature sets for editors, DX, extendibility, etc. Honestly by far I think @sanity_io stands WAY out and I can't believe how mature the product is!
Customizable and user-friendly.
Sanity Studio — the open-source headless CMS — is a customizable React app that developers can launch in minutes. Tailor the editing functionality to fit your marketing, SEO, and content creation needs.
Plugins? We’ve got those.
WordPress’ plugin culture is a huge reason for its success as a blogging platform and website builder. Sanity has those too.
Thanks to an international community of coders and content creators, Sanity’s plugin ecosystem gives developers the extensibility they need, and cements Sanity’s status as one of the best WordPress alternatives.
A wide variety of modules and plugins guarantee the same extensible website building you’ve grown to love in WordPress, with modern answers to its headaches.
A modern CMS solution for marketing and ecommerce sites.
Why trust your business website with a stack built originally as a blogging platform? With Sanity, you can engineer your app to be anything you need it to be, from day one, including an ecommerce store.
Get up and running in minutes
Don't take our word for it. Try Sanity.io yourself with one of these popular website frameworks.
Publish anywhere
Don’t limit where your content can be published. With WordPress’ templates, you’re restricted to viewing your content and your presentation layer as inseparable. Other drag-and-drop options like Wix, Weebly, and Squarespace present this same limitation: your website will always live on their platform. While this approach is friendly to beginners, business owners often end up trapped, and without any advanced features.
Not so with Sanity, which has such a low learning curve it’s great for coding beginners to get started!

- Choose an API-first CMS with a rich set of integration options, leading the current pack of CMS platforms
API-first
Though WordPress has an API, it’s developed after the fact.
With an API-first CMS, developers have the freedom to use the frameworks and querying languages they prefer on a project-by-project basis. Sanity offers REST APIs, GraphQL, and it’s own query language (GROQ) out of the box. Immediately start working with the tools you’re familiar with and build the web design workflow you need.
Consumer privacy ready
Failure to consider how your CMS is affected by consumer privacy regulations laws can be risky. Instead, use Sanity to safely store customer data in the cloud. Sanity was built with GDPR in mind and helps ensure companies remain compliant. The platform doesn’t share data with third parties and has custom edit history retention support to further support transparency.
