The Headless CMS with a Visual Editor
Creating, iterating, and managing digital experiences with a traditional headless CMS can be inefficient and slow down growth. A new paradigm is needed that works for the entire digital organization. Introducing, Builder.io Visual Headless CMS.
How Builder.io Works
Empower your team while freeing up development resources, which helps all team members be more productive, efficient, and creative.
Builder plugs into your existing site and app stacks to power page building, section building, and content management system data within them.
Builder has APIs and SDKs for all modern frameworks and platforms.
The building blocks of Builder are components from your code that you drag and drop with.
Non-development teams can just click to create pages, sections of pages, or data and publish remotely in real time.

Benefits of a Visual Headless CMS
Free yourself from the limitations of a traditional headless CMS.
- Build - developers connect content models to the frontend and register components with Builder so marketers, merchandisers, and product team members can drag and drop them in the Builder visual editor.
- Compose - marketers create reusable content and compose pages and sections using the Builder.io visual editor. Unlike any other headless CMS, the Builder visual CMS offers content creators complete no-code control to build bespoke experiences from scratch.
- Optimize - product and marketing teams use the Builder optimization layer to ship A/B tests and create personalized experiences without affecting performance.
