Our take
Strapi is a headless CMS that lets developers easily build, deploy, and manage APIs across any platform - website, mobile app, IoT. Its open-source headless CMS provides backend functionality for applications and gives developers the freedom to use the tools of their choice for front-end frameworks.
Strapi is backed by many well-known open-source business angels including Augusto Marietti & Marco Palladino from Kong, David Cramer from Sentry, Florian Douetteau from Dataikusuch, to name a few.
In 2021, a strategic partnership with Successive Technologies, a next-gen (CMMI Level-3) technology consulting and services company headquartered in India, was announced. This is already proving to have visible benefits in unlocking critical value from its digital transformation initiatives and expanding its business solutions.
