Yes, Storyblok has a permanent free tier alongside its paid plans. The free plan includes 1 space, 1 user seat included, up to 2 user seats total, and 100GB traffic per month. FreeTier.co estimates the free tier at about $15/mo, and no credit card is required to sign up.
About
Storyblok is a headless CMS with a visual editor, API-first content modeling, and support for structured content delivery through GraphQL, REST, and management APIs. The platform includes a visual editor, component-based content structures, blueprints, workflows, content locking, internationalization, and integrations such as Figma, Netlify, Vercel, Shopify, Slack, and Cloudinary.
The free Starter plan is perpetual and includes 1 space, 1 user seat, up to 2 user seats total, 100GB traffic per month, 100,000 API requests per month, 2 locales, and 25,000 AI credits. Paid plans add higher limits, more seats, more traffic, more API requests, and enterprise features such as SSO, GraphQL content delivery, custom roles, and advanced workflows.

Free Tier Value
This free tier is genuinely usable for small projects: it includes a full starter workspace, one included seat, and meaningful monthly quotas for traffic, API requests, locales, and AI credits. Compared with the $99 Growth plan, it delivers roughly 15% of the entry paid plan’s price, so about $15/month is a fair buyer-side estimate; the 45-day trial on the higher plan and the fact that no credit card is required reduce friction, but the hard caps keep it well below the paid tiers.
