Your content.
Supercharged delivery.
Decouple your CMS back end from your front end and unlock near-instant page loads, perfect Core Web Vitals and the freedom to build in any modern framework — without leaving the CMS your team already knows.
Every reason to decouple. Zero reasons to delay.
Each advantage is available from day one of a conversion — and compounds as your content, traffic and team grow.
Blazing fast performance
Pre-rendered pages served via a global CDN mean sub-second loads — no waiting for the server to build a page on every request. Core Web Vitals go from average to exceptional.
Perfect Lighthouse scores
Static front ends routinely score 95–100 on PageSpeed Insights, giving you a direct SEO ranking advantage over traditional CMS sites.
A smaller attack surface
With no server-side code executing at the public URL and no database exposed, the front end is virtually impossible to compromise directly.
Scale without limits
A CDN-delivered front end absorbs traffic spikes — news stories, campaigns, viral moments — without ever touching your CMS server.
Content everywhere
A single content API serves websites, mobile apps, kiosks and voice assistants from one source of truth — with no duplication.
Future-proof architecture
Swap your front-end framework in five years without touching the CMS. Editorial workflows, content model and integrations stay intact.
The CMS as the brain. Any framework as the face.
Your CMS manages content, permissions and editorial workflows exactly as before. The difference is at the public URL — instead of rendering HTML on every request, a pre-built front end serves pages from a CDN in milliseconds.
- Editors keep using the CMS admin they know
- APIs expose all content as structured data
- Front-end framework fetches and renders at build time
- CDN serves static assets to visitors worldwide
- CMS server never touched by public traffic
Data flow
Public traffic never reaches your CMS in production
