What is Publive?

Publive is an India-first headless CMS (Content Management System) built for modern digital publishers and enterprises. It provides a robust backend for managing content while giving you complete freedom to build any frontend experience using your preferred framework.

How It Works

Publive separates content management from content presentation through two core services:
ServicePurposeBase URL
Content Delivery Service (CDS)Read-only API for fetching published content on your website or apphttps://cds.thepublive.com/publisher/{publisher_id}/
Content Management Service (CMS)Full CRUD API for creating and managing content programmaticallyhttps://cms.thepublive.com/publisher/{publisher_id}/

Who Is Publive For?

  • Digital Publishers — Manage articles, authors, categories, tags, and media at scale
