You may have noticed things look a little different around here. We’ve been busy behind the scenes, refreshing the site, updating the brand, introducing new pricing plans, and more.
Why? Because your business is growing and evolving, and we are too. Every change we’ve made is designed to reflect our ongoing commitment to be a launchpad for your business.
Underneath the new look, ButterCMS is still the same great content management system (CMS) you rely on every day. Built so both technical and non-technical teams can thrive, ButterCMS keeps developers in control of architecture and frameworks while giving marketers the freedom to publish on their own timeline. The result: fewer bottlenecks, faster launches, and more momentum for your business.
Ready to meet the new ButterCMS? Here’s what we’ve been working on:
Behind ButterCMS the product is a team of people invested in your success. We’re developers, marketers, and operators ourselves, so we understand the roadblocks you face firsthand. That perspective drives our people-first approach: practical solutions for real problems, human-to-human support, and a commitment to your business growth. More than a new coat of paint, this rebrand is about making sure our look reflects our internal values and dedication to you, our customers.
You’ll notice a new character making appearances on our site and on social, Pat O’Butter. Pat embodies the qualities we’ve built ButterCMS on: simple, smooth, dependable, and growth-focused. They’re here to bring a touch of personality to a space that often feels overly technical, serving as a friendly companion throughout your journey with ButterCMS.
We’ve also rebuilt our website with you in mind. The new look is cleaner, the navigation simpler, and the layout more intuitive, so you can find what you need faster. Developers now have a dedicated hub as a one-stop shop for docs, starter projects, and other resources, while marketers and business leaders can explore solutions, case studies, and pricing with clarity. Again, the redesign is about making sure our commitment to your success is reflected in every interaction with ButterCMS.
We’ve updated our pricing and simplified our plans to give more value up front. Every plan now includes unlimited users, components, collections, and locales. That means no per-seat charges, no hidden add-ons, and no gated essentials.
As your content and traffic grow, your plan grows with you, without surprise costs.
Here’s what that means in practice:
Unlimited core features on every plan (like Visual Editing, Live Preview, AI Assistant, SEO tools, and Version History)
No per-seat charges: Invite your whole team at no extra cost
Transparent usage scaling: Clear allowances for API calls, bandwidth, and storage
Simple overages: $10 per million API calls, $0.20 per GB of bandwidth
With ButterCMS, you get the features you need to succeed from day one, and the confidence to plan for growth without hidden costs.
Other “free” plans feel more like free trials: stripped down, short-lived, or gated. Butter’s Free plan is different.
You get:
Unlimited users, components, collections, and locales
Up to 50 blog posts
50,000 API calls per month
100 GB bandwidth per month
Core features included: Content API, Live Preview, Visual Editing, SEO fields, AI Assistant
The Free plan is built to give your team a true hands-on experience. Use it to test integrations, build an MVP, or validate ButterCMS in your stack with zero risk. Upgrade only when your usage grows, not because features are locked away.
Whether you’re checking out a free trial or onboarding as a new teammate, our new onboarding experience is designed to get you moving fast. With guided steps, tours, and interactive previews, you’ll hit your first wins quickly. The result: less guesswork, greater confidence, and smoother adoption across your team.
ButterCMS has always been about helping you move faster, scale smarter, and eliminate CMS friction. This rebrand makes that commitment even clearer.
See how the new ButterCMS can help your team launch faster, scale more confidently, and focus on growth.
