Reviewer scorecard
“Mature API, excellent SDKs, and the content model is flexible. The enterprise choice for headless CMS.”
“Fastest editor I've ever used. Native performance, real-time collab, and the AI integration is well-designed.”
“Expensive for what it is. Sanity and Payload offer better DX at lower cost. Only justified for enterprise compliance needs.”
“Fast but the extension ecosystem is small compared to VS Code. You'll miss plugins you depend on.”
“The editor experience is functional but uninspiring. Sanity's customizable studio is more pleasant to work in.”
“The next-gen editor built for AI and collaboration. Rust performance advantage over Electron is real.”
