Umbraco Heartcore
A headless CMS that's heartful and hardcore
Headless CMS doesn't have to be complicated.
Umbraco Heartcore is a headless CMS that's friendly for editors, and flexible for developers. It's built on top of an open-source CMS that powers over 500,000 websites all over the world.
Choose a headless solution that can scale and extend to whatever architecture and integrations you need.
“In a nutshell, Heartcore means: happy marketers who reduce their time to market, happy editors who create content early-on, and happy developers who get to use the latest tech.”
Emmanuel Tissera, Technical Lead at Luminary


A headless CMS with an Umbraco heart
Heartcore is the Umbraco CMS at its core. This means you get a backoffice (backend) and editor experience that’s been tested, used and praised for more than 15 years by over 500,000 websites worldwide. You get a service packed with features that’ll make working with your content more delightful, structured, logical and scalable. A core that’s strong - and gets stronger - without a single sit-up.
From the Heart to anywhere - and anyone
With its RESTful API, Umbraco Heartcore is the centre for any content you need to make available to your frontend - whatever that front might be e.g. apps, smartwatches, screens, smart speakers...anything really! Using fancy marketing lingo this means it's built for "omnichannel delivery".


Fully serviced backoffice and managed APIs
With Umbraco Heartcore you don’t need to worry about keeping an extra codebase up to date - we’ll do it for you. This way you can spend your time and talent on the things you really love - like creating a jaw-dropping frontend or expanding your product line. Umbraco Heartcore comes with a managed API, which means that all your content, media etc. are automatically exposed via a REST API. We’re here to make it easy for you.
No delay, fast display
And it rhymes true. Heartcore ships with Content Delivery Network (CDN) capabilities using Cloudflare, providing you with a stable platform as well as fast delivery of your content to any frontend and users - wherever in the world they might be! Using data storage through servers near you, your users will never have to wait for your content.

Built-in GraphQL functionality
That means even more reduced loading times for users - regardless of their bandwidth. But it's even more than that.
You get ultimate flexibility when retrieving content, making unnecessary data over-fetching a thing of the past; and thanks to the GraphQL Playground, you never again have to worry about unfortunate typos or slip-ups in your code, giving you extra confidence when launching your project.
The perfect fit for your microservices architecture
If you like the idea of a headless CMS to slot right into your framework, it makes sense to have the best editor experience you can get your hands on.
Thanks to its flexibility and extendability, Umbraco Heartcore can be used as Content as a Service in a microservices architecture - and it's pretty powerful too.
