Storyblok
Austrian headless CMS trusted by enterprises and agencies worldwide. Visual editor for content teams, powerful API for developers, with EU-based infrastructure and $138M raised.
Quick facts
The visual editor lets content teams see changes live without needing a developer, and the API-first architecture works well for teams that want to push content to multiple channels.
It runs on AWS rather than infrastructure Storyblok owns itself, and pricing scales up quickly once you need multiple spaces or higher API limits.
Why does it score 53?
Incorporated in Linz, Austria – a full EU member state.
Venture-backed by outside investors, but no single non-EU company holds a controlling stake.
Storyblok is hosted on AWS, including US regions, rather than European-owned infrastructure – the main reason its data score is low despite the strong European roots.
GDPR-compliant, but the platform isn't open source and there's no independently published security audit on record.
