A note from the founder
I built a CMS for myself that I love to use, and I want you to try it.
I've spent years building websites, and every one of them needed a CMS. I've tried most of them. I even liked some of them.
But a quiet unease never went away. My content, the thing the whole site was made of, lived in somebody else's database, behind somebody else's API, on somebody else's pricing page. The images lived on their CDN. The export button produced something that technically counted as my data. And lately every CMS has been growing an AI assistant I didn't ask for, while staying closed to the AI tools I actually use.
Meanwhile, the cloud quietly became amazing. A bucket on Cloudflare or Amazon costs almost nothing, serves files globally, versions them, backs them up. Image services crop and optimize on the fly. Most of what a CMS bills you for is already sitting there, in infrastructure you can rent for pennies and point anywhere you like.
So the CMS I wanted became obvious: just the editing layer. Schemas, validation, drafts, publishing, localization, history. Everything else belongs to the cloud, and the cloud should be mine.
That's Blobify. You bring a bucket. Blobify writes your content into it as plain JSON files: your entries, plus the summaries and indexes a website needs to render fast. Your site reads those files straight from your own storage and CDN. It never calls us. If Blobify has a bad day, your site doesn't notice.
That architecture changes what pricing can be. You can stop paying at any time and nothing breaks, because the files were yours the whole time. You pay when you want to edit, in the dashboard or through your AI tools, and only then. No asset counts, no request quotas, no cut of your bandwidth.
The AI part I built the way I wish everyone would. Blobify ships an MCP server, so Claude, ChatGPT, or agents you write yourself can design schemas, edit entries, import a thousand records, and publish, passing the same validation as a human editor. I didn't build an assistant into my CMS. I made the CMS a good tool for your assistants.
I use Blobify every day. I've fixed a typo from my phone over breakfast and had the site update before the coffee got cold. I've watched Claude migrate a whole content library while I did something better with my afternoon. And I know, with unusual certainty for this industry, exactly where my content is: in my bucket, as files, mine.
That's why I'm sharing it. Maybe it's the tool you've been wanting too. It's free to get started, and if you try it, I'd love to hear what you think. Every piece of feedback makes Blobify a little better, and I read them all.
