Contently

Contently is an end-to-end content marketing platform pairing enterprise content operations software with a vetted global network of freelance writers, editors, designers, and strategists. Brands use Contently to plan editorial calendars, source and manage creative talent, run review-and-approval workflows, publish across channels, and measure content performance. For developers Contently exposes the Talent API, a REST-first JSON API secured with scoped OAuth2 that lets teams search vetted creators, open NDA-scoped projects, brief and message contributors, submit draft reviews, approve and pay out work, and check funded balances. State-change webhooks (project assigned, draft submitted, review responded, payout released) fan out over Slack, Teams, or raw HTTP, and an official MCP server exposes the same surface to Claude, ChatGPT, and in-house agents. Contently maintains SOC 2 Type II, GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA (BAA) posture with encrypted PII and NDA-scoped workspaces.

Contently publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Content Marketing, Talent Marketplace, Freelance, and Content Creation.

The Contently catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Contently’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, engineering blog, support, pricing, signup flow, authentication, and 17 more developer resources.
