Challenges with Basehub

BaseHub is one of those platforms that feels like it was built by a developer, for a developer, and at no point did anyone ask, Won't marketers need to be able to edit on the go?” Once you’re inside, it’s tables inside tables inside tables, like a Russian doll but somehow less fun. And as we’ve said before, we genuinely appreciate good engineering… but BaseHub often feels like someone shipped the database schema and called it a CMS.

BaseHub is painful to use, in our opinion. Because the platform is still young, features sometimes glitch, real-time collaboration hiccups, and localization or migration workflows can get messy fast. Documentation gaps and unpredictable branching only add to the frustration. If you're determined to build on BaseHub, we can walk you through the safest path… or at least help you avoid the inevitable “why is this breaking again?” moments.

Key pain points

Occasional feature glitches

New features sometimes ship a bit wobbly, so expect the occasional “why is this suddenly broken?” moment.

Not yet enterprise-ready

It’s great for small teams, but big orgs will hit walls fast. Workflow maturity and stability just aren’t there yet.

Limited third-party integrations

If you rely on a rich ecosystem, BaseHub won’t meet you halfway. You’ll be wiring a lot of things yourself.

Localization support gaps

Multi-region content teams will feel the pain quickly as language handling still needs serious tightening.

API rate limiting constraints

Push it too hard and you’ll hit rate limits faster than you expect, which can block larger deployments.

Sporadic stability issues

Real-time collaboration and branching can hiccup under pressure, making scaling workflows frustrating.

Benefits of Kontent.ai

Calling your CMS “Kontent dot ai” is a brilliant way to convince people you’ve built an AI-powered future. And to be fair, the platform does have a clean editor, strong workflow tools, and a respectable multi-channel setup.

It's perfect for the kind of company that has more infosec members than it does have devs. But calling yourself an AI platform doesn’t mean you’re built like one.

Real AI-driven CMS platforms start at the foundation with structured content, flexible modeling, real-time indexing, and an architecture that doesn’t panic the moment you try something complex. Sanity doesn’t even market itself as “AI-first,” but it’s been ahead of the curve for years. They shipped an embedding index before “AI CMS” was a pitch deck buzzword. We even built one of the first AI search tools on top of it.

So yes, Kontent.ai is great. If you want a polished interface and enterprise workflows, go for it. And if you’re dead-set on building your website there, talk to us first. We’ll walk you through it and maybe even find a better way before you spend six months discovering the limits yourself.

Key advantages

Intuitive content management

You shouldn’t need a week of onboarding to publish a paragraph. Kontent.ai nails this with a clean interface that doesn’t punish you for being a marketer instead of a developer.

Flexible content modeling

Build content the way your brain works. Modular, structured, reusable. No dev intervention every time marketing decides “we need one more field.”

Strong API-first architecture

The APIs are predictable, well-documented, and don’t require wild workarounds. Everything connects the way it should and developers stay happy too.

Tech stack integration

React, Vue, Angular, or whatever framework you’re obsessed with this week, Kontent.ai plays nice with all of them and keeps deployments smooth.

Advanced image transformations

You can resize, crop, and optimize visuals without leaving the CMS. Think of it as an in-house designer that doesn’t complain about aspect ratios.

Real-time collaboration

Writers, editors, and developers can work together without stepping on each other’s commits. Instant updates, fewer Slack messages, and zero “who overwrote my draft?” moments.
