Hygraph

GraphQL-Native Headless CMS for Enterprise Teams

Visit Hygraph

Hygraph is a GraphQL-native, API-first headless CMS for modeling and governing structured, relational content across brands, regions, and channels. It addresses the complexity of managing content across commerce platforms, authenticated portals, and AI workflows through a single content graph and GraphQL API, delivering to web, app, portal, and AI surfaces without duplicating or migrating connected systems.

Core capabilities include relational content modeling, central governance with distributed publishing, custom roles, approval workflows, environments, audit trails, and SSO. An MCP Server exposes the knowledge graph to AI assistants within existing governance boundaries. Remote sources federate commerce platforms, PIMs, documentation systems, and other APIs into one graph. The Marketplace offers apps (S3, inriver, Jira Cloud), starter projects, schema templates, and accelerators, plus an SDK for building custom apps.

Hygraph serves digital and AI leaders, technical teams, content teams, and organizations building AI agent workflows. It is packaged as a free Hobby plan for individuals, a paid Growth plan for growing teams, and a custom Enterprise plan with dedicated support, governance, compliance, and custom SLAs. A 30-day Enterprise trial is available, and plans are structured around seats, entries, API calls, locales, and other usage limits.
