Overview
Sanity is a structured content platform whose AI layer is unusually deep for a CMS: Content Agent and Agent Actions can generate, transform and translate documents from an instruction, and both are included on the free tier with a monthly AI credit allowance rather than being an enterprise upsell. Its MCP server is hosted by Sanity itself and listed in the official MCP registry, giving an agent document CRUD, schema access and GROQ query execution — one of the most complete first-party agentic surfaces in this category. The trade-off is architectural: the Studio editor is open source, but the Content Lake backend is proprietary and cannot be self-hosted on any plan, so there is no exit to your own infrastructure.
