Dato CMS

API-first headless CMS for building modern websites and applications with flexible content management. Content is stored in a central hub and delivered via GraphQL, enabling developers to consume it from any frontend or channel while editors manage content through a web-based interface.

Trusted by more than 25,000 businesses including Polestar, Hashicorp, Arduino, Netflix France, and Satispay. DatoCMS differentiates from alternatives like Contentful and Sanity with an integrated GraphQL API explorer in the editor, a coordinated suite of APIs for text, images, and video, and a CDN spanning 200 cities in 90 countries. Official client libraries and framework integrations cover the main JavaScript ecosystem.

Key capabilities:

• GraphQL API with type-safe queries and single-request data fetching
• Images API and Video API with on-the-fly transformations and CDN delivery
• Real-time API for live content updates without polling
• Schema Builder and Structured Text for flexible content modeling
• Visual Editing and dynamic layouts for preview and in-context editing
• Worldwide CDN, cache tags, and workflow support for publishing
• Integrations with Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, React, Svelte, and Vue

Teams use DatoCMS for marketing sites, product documentation, multi-locale e-commerce, and omnichannel content where a single source of truth must feed websites, mobile apps, and other digital experiences. Developers fetch content via the GraphQL Delivery API, use the Management API for programmatic updates, and rely on webhooks or the Real-time API for cache invalidation and build triggers.
