Contentful

Enterprise API-first headless CMS

Free tier + paidCMS & content infrastructurecontentful.com

What it is

Contentful is a hosted API-first CMS with structured content modeling, a web editor, GraphQL and REST delivery APIs, and multi-environment workflows. The free plan covers 10 users, 10,000 records, 100,000 API calls per month, 2 locales and 25 content types.

Why it earns a slot

The safe enterprise choice when procurement, SSO, audit logs and SLAs matter more than price. Mature localization and a large app ecosystem make it defensible for a multi-brand publisher.

Know before you commit

The jump from free to Lite is $300/mo with nothing in between, and only 2 locales are free. Personalization, AI Actions and Studio all require Enterprise. MCP support is community-maintained, not official.
