Key Features

Faster builds, more profit

Designed for building headless websites quickly and efficiently

Let’s face it, most of the time you want to use a headless CMS because it plays nice with your tech stack, but then it takes forever to configure and the end result stresses out even your most experienced developers.

Stop overcomplicating your headless website builds. Create simple, headless websites, following our easy & repeatable methods that save you time, stress and money.

Delightful developer tooling

To get you going quickly we’ve built out starter kits with Next.js and Tailwind CSS, they use our recommended setup, are pre-configured with our SDK and come with best-practice content modelling and example content.

As part of every Contento license we offer a robust Image Optimization API, this allows you to optimise images on the fly via a simple URL syntax and have them delivered at speed from our global CDN.

Marketing and content teams love us

An intuitive editing experience

Contento is built with one primary use-case in mind — managing content for your website. This lets us strip away all the unnecessary bloat and give you a CMS that marketing folk actually want to use.

With our easy to use interface, editing content is quick, simple and all within the context of the page.

Tired of repeating yourself?

My Library - Your very own content model store

We know good content modelling takes time. So we created a way for you to store your favourite content models to use in any new sites you build. You can also choose from our library of pre-built content models to speed up the process.

Perfect for agencies or those building multiple sites that want to save time on the setup.

Everyone needs to see how it looks before they hit publish

Visual Preview

All our starter kits come pre-configured to use Visual Preview with your local dev environment. You can use it whilst developing your site, or when you need to add new components and pages — then when you go live, you can switch it over to work with your production domain.

Content editors request less help from the dev team if they can see what they’re creating in realtime before they publish it.

No website should ever be serving huge images, scaled down by the browser.

Our Image Optimization API is similar to many others you may have paid to use before, but comes for free as part of your Contento license.

Feature Request Icon

All the features you’d expect from a modern CMS

Robust content API, SDK clients for major frameworks, visual preview, multi-language and more.

Our customers say it best

Here are a selection of testimonials from some of our customers who've successfully made the move from a legacy CMS to Contento

Kevin Magee CTO, Zyte

CTO Zyte

One of our goals was to ensure our Marketing team was not held up by the Engineering team on a daily basis. We achieved that and empowered Marketing to maintain the site at a speed aligned to our business requirements. Content creation and Engineering have been decoupled.

We moved from Wordpress to Contento and have been delighted with the move. I no longer have to get developers to update the site - I reckon it's reduced my site 'admin time' by over 70%.
