Payload CMS
The CMS you'd build yourself, in six months
Payload is what we reach for when WordPress is too much and Contentful is too expensive. TypeScript-first, self-hostable, and actually pleasant to build on.
What we deliver
Built to ship,
built to last.
Typed content models
Collections, blocks, relationships — all typed end-to-end. Auto-generated TypeScript.
Self-hosted setup
Railway, Hetzner, or your own infra. No vendor lock-in, no per-seat billing.
Next.js integration
Payload as CMS + Next.js frontend. ISR, draft preview, visual editing where it helps.
Migration from WP/Contentful
Clean exports, content mapping, editorial team training. Zero downtime cutover.
