   Thank you. These are all great questions and things we consider a lot. > How will you pitch this moving further up-market? Especially where the opex exists that dev costs are less important. And vendor lock-in (or likelihood of existing

    We use MongoDB. We have a GraphQL API https://cosmicjs.com/docs/graphql , but do not currently offer streaming live data.

    Some answers to your points: 1. We do offer a full data export. After you login, go to Bucket Settings > Import / Export to get a full JSON file export of your Bucket. 2. Thanks for the feedback. Anything specific? 3. Early on we wa

    That's right. You get up to 1,000 results (Objects) before you have to do multiple requests on the API.

    Great point to illustrate the value! And how much does it cost to employ two good full-time developers?

    Yes, you can get all of your content from Cosmic at build time for your static site. Here are some resources that may help: Gatsby source plugin: https://www.npmjs.com/package/gatsby-source-cosmicjs Gatsby Starter: ht

    I'm interested to hear more about what you're looking for in a dashboard experience. If you are looking to find a replacement (and not just blast another YC company) what features would you like to see?

    Hard to boil it down to just one. The dedicated help in improving the company, the network, and others are the biggest.

    Thanks for the heads up. There's lots of things we're working to improve.

    We had good traction before YC. But YC comes with many benefits, not just fundraising.

    The whole point of a headless CMS is to not have to manage the CMS infrastructure. With Strapi, you would still need to manage the infrastructure yourself. This is actually called a "decoupled CMS".

    There are a few headless CMS players in the space, but we're different in our approach. Compare other headless CMS dashboards and APIs and you'll notice a lot of work has been done to make our solution as simple as possible. Conte

    Thank you for the feedback. I built a career building WordPress websites as well so I do have gratitude for the product and the ecosystem that it has built. But for years I did encounter these problems myself, maybe you or others have not,

    This is a good point. It's a challenge to convince CTOs to choose a startup to depend on for mission-critical services. For the most part, the trend is moving to greater trust for vendors that provide these services: Stripe, Twilio, Al

    Our target customer is not a consumer, there are plenty of consumer CMS choices in the market. We're trying to solve the problem for teams of developers and content creators who don't want to waste time diverting developer time to

    Developer time is expensive. Allowing devs to focus on the core-product instead of CMS infrastructure is a big time/money saver. This is the value prop for most all API-first services: Stripe, Twilio, Algolia. Why would you build your
