A Next.js developer needed a CMS. Strapi runs separately. Contentful charges per API call. WordPress is PHP. None felt native to the Next.js ecosystem.
Payload is a headless CMS built WITH Next.js. It lives inside your Next.js app. Same codebase, same deployment, same database.
What Payload Offers for Free
- Next.js Native - Lives inside your Next.js app directory
