Headless CMS
Siteshare vs Storyblok
Storyblok is a headless CMS with a visual editor: editors fill in blocks next to a preview of the page, the content lives in Storyblok's cloud, and your site fetches it through an SDK. Siteshare keeps the content where it is, in the code of the site you built, and lets your client change it by talking to the site.
| Question | Siteshare | Storyblok |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | An editor at the client's own site, /edit, on the site you built | A headless CMS with a Visual Editor |
| How someone edits | Chat, select or draw on the real site; double-click to type | Fields of blocks next to a preview of the page |
| Setup in your code | None: a GitHub App on the repository | Blocks defined in Storyblok, an SDK, a map of components and edit markers |
| Where content lives | Your repository | Storyblok's cloud, fetched through its API |
| What a client may change | Four levels per client; anything above waits for your approval | The blocks and fields you define, with roles |
| Price | Free for 1 site, then $9 a site a month, down to $4 as you grow (5 sites $36, 20 sites $126); clients and builders unlimited | Starter free (1 seat), Growth $99 a month (5 seats, $15 per extra seat), Growth Plus $349; per space |
Two different jobs
Storyblok is a content platform. It is strong when content is a product of its own: one model, many channels, a team of editors and a library of blocks. The price of that is a rebuild: your pages fetch content from Storyblok instead of holding it.
Siteshare is for the site you already built. Your code stays the content model, the texts stay where your AI wrote them, and your client changes them with a chat, in a draft, with a build check before anything goes live.
When Storyblok is the better choice
- The same content goes to a website and an app, a kiosk or a shop front end.
- A large marketing team builds many pages from reusable blocks, in several languages.
- You're building the site around a content model from the start.
Questions
Can I move a site I built with AI to Storyblok?
Yes, by rebuilding its pages around blocks: define them in Storyblok, move the texts there, and fetch them in your components. Siteshare works on the site as it is.
When should I pick Storyblok over Siteshare?
When content has to go to more places than one website, or a large team composes many pages from shared blocks. That is what a headless CMS is for.
