Overview
Hygraph began with the goal of building a headless CMS that was fully GraphQL native and traded as GraphCMS until it rebranded as Hygraph in July 2022.[13] Its distinguishing feature is Content Federation, which lets a single Hygraph GraphQL API include content from external REST or GraphQL sources through remote fields and a caching layer, without migrating that content into Hygraph.[13] Published plans are Hobby at US$0, Growth from US$199 a month and a custom-priced Enterprise plan.[12] The federation model is aimed at organisations that need to combine CMS content with data held in commerce, product-information or other back-end systems.
