    About Storyblok

    Storyblok is an enterprise-grade headless Content Management System (CMS) headquartered in Linz, Austria. Founded in 2017, it distinguishes itself from other headless platforms by providing a powerful Visual Editor that gives marketers a 'What You See Is What You Get' (WYSIWYG) experience while maintaining a robust, API-first architecture for developers. This dual-interface approach allows content teams to build pages quickly using components while developers focus on the frontend using any modern framework. The platform is designed for global scalability and serves a wide range of industries, from startups to large enterprises. By decoupling the content from the presentation layer, Storyblok enables multi-channel delivery across websites, mobile apps, and IoT devices. The company emphasizes security and compliance, maintaining ISO 27001 certification and following strict EU data protection standards. It is frequently recognized as a market leader in G2 reports and Gartner's Voice of the Customer for its innovative approach to content management.
