How Kontent.ai stands out

Kontent.aiContentstack

Ease of use

An intuitive interface built for non-technical users. Minimal learning curve.

More complex interface with a higher learning curve.

Collaboration

Real-time collaboration with in-context comments and suggestions, role-based access control, and workflow management.

Fewer collaborative features and no simultaneous editing.

Workflow analytics

Mission Control gives every user a bird's-eye view of their project, helping them identify bottlenecks and areas for improvement.

No built-in analytics of content workflows.

AI enhancements

AI Accelerators speed up work across all aspects of the content lifecycle: from automated tagging of content and assets, to writing assistance (including text summarization, changing voice and tone, etc.), to automatically translating content, and enforcing brand and content guidelines.

Contentstack provides AI text and image generators, but does not provide full AI support across the entire content lifecycle.

Customer support

24x7x365 live support available for all customers, with an industry-leading customer satisfaction.

The level of support varies based on subscription level.

Pricing

A flexible pricing plan for all customers. Pricing is based on your actual usage, with volume-based discounts. No complicated tiers or add-ons.

Custom, hidden pricing.
