You picked Storyblok because the Visual Editor demo felt magical. Three products in, you are looking at three separate spaces, three monthly subscription lines, and a pricing page that now charges per seat on top of per space. For a single-product team with one editor, Storyblok is a reasonable buy. For a multi-product founder or an agency running blogs across several brands, the math gets hostile fast.
Kamaan is the command center for multi-product founders and agencies who run many SaaS blogs: manage every blog from one dashboard, and run every operation across all of them from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client. This article puts Storyblok and Kamaan side by side on the dimensions that actually matter when your deliverable is a blog, with a focus on the multi-site pricing question where Storyblok punishes growth.
Quick takeaways
- Storyblok charges per space and per seat. A three-product founder running three blogs needs three spaces, and Growth at $99 per space pushes the bill to $297 a month before seat upgrades.
- Kamaan bundles sites into each tier. Growth covers three sites and three languages. Scale covers ten sites and ten languages. Unlimited covers up to 25 sites and 99+ languages.
- Storyblok's Growth plan caps locales at 4. Kamaan's Auto-Multilingual Delivery scales with your tier and reaches 99+ languages on Unlimited, all hreflang-correct on publish.
- Storyblok ships a Visual Editor and field-level translation, both real strengths. Kamaan ships an MCP Server and ChatGPT Actions on every tier, both real differentiators if you write blog content from Claude or ChatGPT.
- Pick Storyblok when a Visual Editor that lets marketers build pages block-by-block is the primary user need. Pick Kamaan when you run more than one blog and want one dashboard, one bill, and AI-native publishing built in.
How Storyblok is structured (and what it costs)
Storyblok is a headless CMS built around two ideas: components-as-content (everything is a block you compose visually) and spaces (each project lives in its own isolated space with its own content, users, and bill). The Visual Editor is the marquee feature. Marketers preview pages live as they edit, dragging blocks around without touching code. That is a real strength for content teams that need page-building, not just article publishing.
The cost model is where multi-product founders feel the pinch. Per the Storyblok pricing page, the free Starter tier covers one space and one seat. The Growth tier at $99 a month covers one space and up to 10 seats. Growth Plus at $349 a month adds release management, an uptime SLA, and up to 20 seats. Premium and Elite are enterprise tiers with custom pricing. Locales are capped: Growth covers up to 4. If you need a fifth language on Growth, you move up a tier or add it as an enterprise line item.
Each space is its own bill. If you run three SaaS products and want each blog on its own space (the natural choice, since editors, roles, and content are scoped to a space), you pay three Growth subscriptions: $297 a month before seat upgrades. Storyblok will tell you that you can put multiple sites in one space using folders, and that is technically true, but you lose the audit-clean separation between products and you lose per-product editor access control.
How Kamaan is structured (and what it costs)
Kamaan is a headless blog CMS for the multi-product founder and the agency. The data model is shaped for blog content: articles with rich text, scheduled publishing, categories, authors, SEO metadata, and multilingual versions. The pricing model is tier-based and bundles sites into the tier:
- Starter, 1 site, 1 language, 5,000 API calls a month, 1 team member.
- Growth, 3 sites, 3 languages, 25,000 API calls, 3 team members.
- Scale, 10 sites, 10 languages, 100,000 API calls, 10 team members.
- Unlimited, up to 25 sites, 99+ languages, 500,000 API calls, unlimited team members.
Every tier ships with the MCP Server and ChatGPT Actions integrations, the REST API, and SEO metadata. Growth and above add Auto-Multilingual Delivery and hreflang. Every tier gets the first month free. Annual saves 16% across the board. Lifetime plans are available on every tier.
The operating bet is that founders running more than one SaaS product want one account, one dashboard, and one bill that covers all their blogs, with AI-native publishing built into the workflow.
Storyblok vs Kamaan on ten dimensions
The chart below puts both side by side on the dimensions that matter when your deliverable is a blog.
Three rows are worth flagging.
The multi-site billing row. Storyblok bills each space separately. Kamaan bundles sites into the tier. For a three-product founder, Storyblok at three Growth spaces is $297 a month ($3,564 a year). Kamaan Growth covers all three of those sites in one subscription. That is roughly a 6x annual swing on the same workload.
The locales row. Storyblok's Growth tier caps you at 4 locales. If your audience is English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, that is already 5. You either pay to move tiers or you build a workflow that strips the fifth. Kamaan Growth covers 3 languages (Starter is 1, Scale is 10, Unlimited is 99+). Pick the tier that matches the language count you actually need.
The AI-orchestration rows. Storyblok has APIs and a strong developer story, but no first-party MCP Server and no ChatGPT Actions schema for content publishing. Kamaan ships both on every tier. If you write blog drafts in Claude or ChatGPT today and want the CMS to be reachable from there without building a custom integration, that gap is the deciding factor.
What each tool is great at
This is a comparison article, not a bashing article. Storyblok genuinely wins where its Visual Editor lets marketers build pages block-by-block, where field-level translation keeps every language variant on one Story document (clean for many surfaces consuming the same content), and where developers already prefer GraphQL.
Kamaan wins on three fronts. Multi-site pricing math at scale: three SaaS products on Kamaan Growth is one flat monthly bill vs Storyblok at $297. Ten sites on Kamaan Scale is one flat monthly bill vs Storyblok at $990. Up to 25 sites on Kamaan Unlimited is one flat monthly bill vs Storyblok at $2,475. Native AI-tool integration: the MCP Server and ChatGPT Actions schema are first-party on every tier, not plugins or community projects. Auto-translation on publish: every language on your tier goes live the moment you hit publish in English, with correct hreflang.
What you give up by picking Kamaan: the Visual Editor. There is no page-builder UI; you write articles in a rich-text editor, not by composing blocks visually. If a Visual Editor is a hiring promise to your marketing team, Kamaan is not the tool.
Real-world workflow scenarios
A multi-product founder running three SaaS products picks Kamaan Growth, which covers three sites. He writes one launch article for the new invoicing release through ChatGPT Actions. Kamaan publishes the English article and at the same publish delivers Spanish, German, and French versions at their own URLs with correct hreflang. Total monthly cost across all three product blogs: one Growth plan. First month free. The Storyblok equivalent at three spaces on Growth is $297 a month, plus a translation workflow built on the side.
An agency running blogs for 12 brand clients picks Kamaan Unlimited, which covers up to 25 sites. The team gets one dashboard listing every brand's blog, with role-based access scoped per site. Editors switch between sites in a click. The MCP Server is reachable from Claude so the content team can write and publish without opening the CMS for routine articles. The Storyblok equivalent at 12 spaces on Growth is $1,188 a month before seats. At Growth Plus for SLA, it is $4,188 a month.
When Storyblok is still the right call
Pick Storyblok when:
- A Visual Editor for page composition is a primary workflow need, not a nice-to-have.
- Your content is more than just blog articles (landing pages, marketing blocks, product pages composed of reusable components).
- Your developer team prefers GraphQL over REST.
- You are running exactly one site and the per-space billing model never bites you.
Pick Kamaan when:
- You run more than one blog and want one account, one dashboard, one bill.
- The CMS needs to be reachable from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or another MCP client.
- You want auto-translation included in the tier, not bolted on as a separate plugin and bill.
- Your editorial output is articles, not page-builder compositions.
FAQ
How much does Storyblok cost per month at three sites?
Three spaces on the Storyblok Growth plan is $99 per space, $297 a month total, per the Storyblok pricing page. Seats beyond the included 10 per space are billed separately. Kamaan Growth covers three sites, with three languages included and the first month free.
Does Storyblok support more than 4 languages on Growth?
No. The Storyblok Growth plan is capped at 4 locales. Adding a fifth language requires moving to a higher tier. Kamaan's tier ladder covers 1 language on Starter, 3 on Growth, 10 on Scale, and 99+ on Unlimited.
Can I run multiple sites in one Storyblok space?
Technically yes, using folders inside a single space, but you lose the per-product separation of editors, roles, and content. The default Storyblok pattern is one space per project, which is why per-space pricing adds up across multiple products.
Does Kamaan have a Visual Editor?
No. Kamaan ships a rich-text editor for articles, with SEO metadata, scheduling, and multilingual versions. If a Visual Editor that composes pages from reusable blocks is a core workflow need, Storyblok is the right tool.
Can I migrate from Storyblok to Kamaan?
Yes. Storyblok's Management API can export your stories as JSON. Kamaan's REST API accepts article creates with all the standard fields. A small import script maps Storyblok's component structure to Kamaan's article model and uploads the articles. Translations carry over if you map the field-level translation data to per-language article records on the Kamaan side.
Does Storyblok have an MCP Server or ChatGPT Actions integration?
Not as a first-party shipped feature. Storyblok has APIs you can build against, and community projects may exist. Kamaan ships a first-party MCP Server and ChatGPT Actions schema, reachable from every tier including Starter. If AI-native publishing is a real workflow for you, that is a meaningful gap.
What about hreflang? Does Storyblok auto-emit it?
Storyblok delivers content through its API; emitting hreflang tags in your rendered HTML is the responsibility of your frontend code. Kamaan auto-emits hreflang server-side for every translated article so search engines see the correct international signals without frontend code changes.
Is there a free tier on Kamaan?
Kamaan does not have a permanent free tier. Every tier (Starter, Growth, Scale, Unlimited) includes the first month free, long enough to ship real articles, test the AI integrations, and verify the multilingual delivery against your real stack before paying.
