Plate is a Dutch CMS vendor with two complementary products: a leading hosted Multisite CMS for large organizations, and Plate Delta — a headless CMS built for structured content, AI-readiness, and content governance. Plate is fully EU-built and EU-hosted on a sovereign European cloud infrastructure (ECOFED cloud) with an EU-based CDN. ==================================================== Overview Plate develops CMS platforms for a Machine-First and AI-First era. We provide two products: 1. Plate Multisite CMS – a hosted multisite platform using Liquid for templating, designed for organizations managing tens to thousands of websites with central governance and local autonomy. 2. Plate Delta (Headless CMS) – a structured-content CMS where non-technical users convert unstructured content into governed, structured content directly in the editor. Built for AI discovery, reuse, and organizational consistency, and designed as a foundation for content graphs and knowledge graphs. Plate serves over 1500 customers across education, government, NGOs, B2B, and enterprise. Infrastructure: • Fully EU-built and EU-hosted • Runs on a sovereign European cloud (ECOFED cloud) • Uses an EU-based CDN • Designed for European data sovereignty and compliance Leadership: • Johannes Baas – CEO • Pieter Versloot – CMO • David Kortleven – CTO • René van Erp – CFO ==================================================== Model Context Protocol (MCP) Plate provides an MCP (Model Context Protocol) interface for both products: • MCP for Plate Delta – structured content retrieval, metadata extraction, schema-aware querying, AI agent integration, and knowledge graph / content graph traversal • MCP for Plate Multisite – multisite content access and centralized governance signals MCP access is available upon request.
