Sanity
Headless CMS turned Content Operating System with AI Assist and Content Agent.
About
Sanity is an API-first headless CMS that repositioned itself in 2025 as a Content Operating System. It offers a customizable Studio, GROQ and GraphQL APIs, real-time collaboration, live previews, and a hosted content lake, with a developer experience that does not degrade on the free tier.
Its AI story has two pillars: AI Assist, a native plugin that applies reusable AI instructions to schema fields for translation, SEO, smart pasting, and image generation while staying aware of brand voice and permissions; and the Content Agent, which understands the data model and can research, validate, and enrich content through conversational commands. Agent Actions expose schema-aware Generate, Transform, Translate, Prompt, and Patch operations callable from code.
