Sanity

What it is for

Sanity is a hosted content-studio desk: you open Structure, and Free is $0 forever. Use it when the job is documents you edit in Studio at $0, not when you need a $20 chat seat.

What makes it unique: the cover is the official Sanity Structure desk (Sci-Fi Movies, Blade Runner (1982) selected, Galaxy Quest / WALL-E list, title + slug + overview) from the docs still — not a pricing card. The rows themselves are ops of Structure. Sanity bills $0 forever or $15 / seat, not a chat seat.

Key features

• Structure — a document list plus the form you publish (cover still; docs). One desk. Cover Blade Runner (1982) and the Movie tree sit here.
• Schedules — a publish you queue for later (cover Schedules tab) (docs). A schedule, not a document form. The calendar sits here.
• Media Library — assets you attach to documents (docs). Media, not a schedule. Files sit here.
• Datasets — an isolated content lake you point Studio at (docs; pricing extra dataset $999 / mo add-on). A dataset, not an asset. Isolation sits here.
• Content Releases — a bundle of document changes you ship together (docs). A release, not a dataset. Perspectives sit here.

The Vision GROQ tab on the cover is the query pane (playground for the same documents — not a sixth desk). Free / Growth tiles are the meter. Support at $799 / month is an add-on SKU, not a desk we fold into Structure.

Who it's for

Best fit: content / product teams who will stay on Free at $0 forever while they open a first Structure list, then buy Growth at $15 / seat / month when they need roles, more seats, and paid add-ons.

Pricing

Verified 2026-10-23 (Asia/Shanghai) from sanity.io/pricing. Tiles print Free $0 forever and Growth $15 per seat / month.

• Free — $0 forever. Get started for free. Quotas for documents, API, assets, and bandwidth on the compare table we fetched.
• Growth — $15 / seat / month. Up to 50 seats on the copy we fetched. Collaboration roles.
• Add-ons (Growth) — Support Engineers +$799 / month. Extra dataset $999 / dataset / month. Extra documents $299 for 50k. API overage $1 / 250k (and $1 / 25k on a second row). Assets $0.50 / GB. Bandwidth $0.30 / GB. AI credits $0.05 each.
• Enterprise — contact sales.

Confirm checkout; taxes follow your location.

Limitations / costs

• Free is quota-capped $0, not unlimited CDN. A second dataset on Growth is already $999 / month.
• $15 is per seat. Ten editors are $150 / month before add-ons.
• A content studio, not a page builder you self-host. For Strapi see Strapi. For Payload see Payload.

Alternatives

• Strapi — open-source headless CMS when you want Strapi’s admin, not Sanity’s $0 / $15 Structure desk.
• Payload — TypeScript CMS you self-host when you want Payload’s collections, not Sanity’s Content Lake.
• Directus — database-first CMS when you want Directus’s tables, not Sanity’s Studio document tree.
