Overview

Storyblok is a cloud-based headless content management system developed by Storyblok GmbH. The platform separates content management from frontend presentation, allowing teams to deliver structured content through websites, applications, commerce experiences, and other channels.

Its Visual Editor provides in-context previews while developers define reusable components, content models, and frontend integrations. Storyblok was founded in 2017 and lists its headquarters at Peter-Behrens-Platz 2 in Linz, Austria.
