Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Data Protection Officer

Weighted verdict

Signs off every tool that stores the company's drafts, author profiles and campaign data. Wants the contracting entity and hosting region named, the subprocessor list with the AI providers on it, prompt retention in days, and training on customer content excluded in the terms rather than in a blog post.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Planning, editorial calendar & briefs

How this is scored

Turning a content strategy into scheduled work: topics and campaigns, an editorial calendar across channels, briefs that carry the goal, audience and keywords to the writer, and a view of what is due, late or missing.

0 — No planning at all; the product only stores or renders content.

3 — A calendar or list view of content with publish dates and statuses.

5 — An editorial calendar across channels with owners, due dates and custom statuses, and content grouped by campaign, topic or channel.

8 — Strategy connected to the plan: briefs carrying goal, audience and keywords attached to each piece, topics or personas defined once and assigned to pieces, configurable workflows per content type, workload and deadline views per person, and recurring formats scheduled as series.

10 — The plan is accountable: every published piece traces back to its brief, topic and campaign, gaps in coverage per topic or funnel stage are reported, and plan-versus-published is visible over time without a spreadsheet.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

The captured marketing-campaign page frames the platform as a central hub for brand presence, lead generation and campaign management, where marketing teams create, test and launch landing pages themselves. We found no public information on an editorial calendar, briefs carrying goal, audience and keywords, per-person deadline views, or plan-versus-published reporting. 4

Report an error

Creation, review & approval

How this is scored

Writing and reviewing content together: editing with comments and suggestions, roles and permissions for internal and external contributors, and an approval trail that records who released which version — published content is a legal statement (UWG, Heilmittelwerbegesetz, the imprint duty).

0 — A single-user tool; content cannot be shared with or reviewed by others.

3 — Several users working on content, with comments or a version history.

5 — Roles and permissions that separate writing from publishing, comments on content, a version history with restore, and an approval or review status before publishing.

8 — Configurable multi-step approval per content type or market, mandatory reviewers (legal, product, brand), inline suggested edits, guest or freelancer access limited to assigned pieces, scheduled publishing that waits for approval, and an audit log of every edit, approval and publish with user and timestamp.

10 — Approval is evidence: the exact version each approver released is preserved and exportable, permissions reach down to field and locale level, and the audit trail is retained for a stated period and available after the contract ends.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Granular access rights let roles be assigned for editors, teams and regions, alongside vendor statements on strict access controls and dedicated security teams. We found no public information on approval or review statuses before publishing, version history with restore, or an audit log recording who released which version — for content that is a legal statement, that is the part I sign off on. 1 5

Report an error

Structured content, localisation & export

How this is scored

Whether content is stored as reusable structure rather than pages: a content model, components shared across channels, German and other locales managed side by side, and the whole repository exportable in a documented format.

0 — Not a content store; the product keeps no content of its own (for example a pure scheduling or analytics tool).

3 — Templates or custom fields for content, a media library, and content in several languages.

5 — A configurable content model or content types with reusable components, locales managed side by side for each entry, and an export of entries in JSON, CSV, XML or a similar documented format.

8 — References between entries, field-level localisation with fallback languages, variants per market or audience, translation workflows with status per locale and named translation-service connectors, and a full export of content, model, locales and assets documented and self-service.

10 — The repository is portable by design: model and content exportable together and re-importable, migration tooling or a CLI documented in both directions, version history included in the export, and no feature that only works while the content stays.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Templates, content elements and features are reusable across unlimited sites, translations link to their source with automatic change tracking, a localized overview shows locales side by side in columns, and translation workflows plus a named DeepL extension are documented. We found no public information on field-level localisation with fallback languages, per-locale translation status, or a documented self-service export of content, model, locales and assets. 1 5 6

Report an error

Publishing, distribution & integrations

How this is scored

Getting approved content to where it is read: publishing to websites and channels, a documented API and webhooks, and named connections to the CMS, CRM, analytics, SEO and translation tools a marketing stack already runs.

0 — A closed tool; content leaves only by copy and paste.

3 — Publishing to one website or CMS, and a few named integrations.

5 — Publishing to websites and several channels from one place, a publicly documented API or webhooks, and integrations named for common CMS, CRM or analytics tools.

8 — A versioned API with published rate limits and SDKs, webhooks on publish and change, preview environments, a marketplace or integration directory with maintained connectors, performance data per piece pulled back from analytics, and a public status page.

10 — The platform is a dependable source for every channel: API deprecation policy published, CDN and delivery SLA stated, scheduled and event-driven publishing documented end to end, and content performance attributed per channel without a separate tool.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

Publishing covers unlimited websites and microsites from a single installation, integrations are named for ERP and CRM systems and analytics platforms, and a curated Official Integrations & Services program delivers maintained connectors through technology partners on 24-month terms. We found no public information on a documented API, webhooks, published rate limits, or a status page. 1 4 5 8

AI assistance & content rights

How this is scored

What the platform's AI does with the customer's content and what the customer may do with the AI's: the models and where they run, whether content trains them, opt-out, labelling of generated text under the EU AI Act, and who holds the rights to output.

0 — The vendor states that customer content trains its models with no opt-out, or reserves the rights to AI output for itself.

3 — AI writing features described with what they do, and a general statement on how content is handled by them.

5 — The AI model provider named, a statement that customer content does not train models, and AI features that an admin can switch off.

8 — Model providers listed as subprocessors, EU processing for AI features stated or selectable, retention of prompts and outputs given in days, ownership of generated output assigned to the customer in the terms, generated content markable for EU AI Act transparency, and brand voice or terminology rules applied without training a shared model.

10 — AI is governed and documented: per-feature list of model, provider and processing location, admin controls per role and content type, an audit trail of AI-generated changes, and the output rights and any indemnity written into the contract terms.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

AI features are described concretely: an open-source Smart Extension Builder from Mittwald CM Service GmbH generating extension code and connecting via MCP, AI-powered guidance inside the cookieless TYPO3 Analytics, and DeepL translations. We found no public information on which models process content, whether customer content trains them, any opt-out, retention of prompts and outputs, where AI processing runs, or how output rights are assigned in the terms. 5 8

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Who the contracting entity is, where content, assets and AI prompts are stored and processed, and which subprocessors touch them. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; dimensions the evidence does not establish are unknown, not non-European.

0 — Vendor, contracting entity and hosting all shown to be outside the EU, with no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement offered, with hosting or the contracting entity outside the EU or not established.

5 — EU hosting stated for content and assets, with a data processing agreement offered.

8 — EU contracting entity, content, assets and backups stored in the EU on named infrastructure, subprocessor list published with locations and purposes, and AI processing location stated.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, EU entity, every hosting, CDN, AI and support subprocessor European or optional, self-hosting or a European cloud offered, and certifications published.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

The imprint establishes a German contracting entity in full — TYPO3 GmbH, Düsseldorf, register court and number, VAT IDs, supervisory board — and the privacy policy names Hetzner Online GmbH in Gunzenhausen as host with a concluded data processing agreement and an appointed data protection officer; the platform is open source and a German website builder from DFAU GmbH in Fürth sits in the partner program. Those captures concern the vendor's own website, however, and we found no public information on where customer content and AI prompts are processed by the product, a customer-facing processing agreement, a product subprocessor list, or published certifications. 2 3 8

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

How this is scored

Whether a buyer can compute the annual cost for their team, locales and traffic from public pages alone — seats and contributor roles, locales, content records, API calls and bandwidth, AI credits, and the plan where approval workflows or SSO begin.

0 — No public prices at all; every plan is a sales conversation.

3 — A public "from" price, a free tier, or one priced plan, with the rest on request.

5 — Prices for each plan public with the billing period (per month or per year) and the seats or main limits each includes.

8 — Every plan priced with seats, locales, records, API and bandwidth limits and overage rates stated, AI usage priced or included explicitly, and the plan that unlocks approval workflows, SSO and audit logs named.

10 — Complete cost computability: annual cost derivable for a given team, locale count and traffic, every add-on and overage priced publicly, contract term and renewal conditions stated, and the cost of exporting or leaving the platform zero or published.

Report an error

The Data Protection Officer

The core platform is open source, supported by a global community, with a public demo and no license fee shown, which functions as the free tier. Extended long-term support, certifications, official integrations, TYPO3 Analytics and training are named without prices, and delivery runs through an agency-matching service and 24-month technology partnerships, so an annual cost cannot be computed from the captured pages. 1 5
