Contentful is a headless content management system, founded in 2013 in Berlin, Germany, by Sascha Konietzke and Paolo Negri. The company and the platform are both called Contentful. As of June 2021, the company is headquartered in San Francisco, California, with offices in Denver, Colorado and Berlin. Contentful is the platform where you can update the content of your website, a mobile app or any other platform that displays content. We save you the time and hassle to create your own backend to manage the content, and provide many tools which make it easier to actually generate a website or app. Contentful provides a content platform that comprises REST and GraphQL APIs for working with your content. Each of these APIs serve a different purpose, so which one to use depends on what you want to do: If you’re retrieving content to display to users in an app or website, use the Content Delivery API.
