Many players in the DAM space are not truly scalable, which means that businesses using these solutions will reach a point where their needs are no longer being met. What makes Bynder unique is its ability to evolve with its customers, meaning that it can solve both simple and complex use cases and scale without compromising a brand-first, intuitive platform approach. Hence, the partnership with Storyblok.
Storyblok partnered with Bynder due to the platforms’ shared core values as well as mutual customers. Bynder and Storyblok strive to stay at the forefront of their respective industries by constantly evolving their offerings and introducing new features and technologies. We understand the importance of delivering intuitive, user-friendly solutions that empower customers to manage and distribute digital content effectively.

How to leverage the Bynder x Storyblok integration
Bynder’s search and filtering options allow users to quickly find the specific assets they need, whether it’s images, videos, documents, or other media files. Once users have selected the desired assets, the Bynder plugin provides a simple way to insert it directly to their content within Storyblok. The integration ensures that users maintain brand consistency by accessing the latest versions of their assets stored in Bynder. In addition, the integration enhances collaboration between teams. Designers can upload and manage assets in Bynder, while content teams can easily access and incorporate those assets into their content in Storyblok.
Quote from Bas van Reeuwijk, Director Integration and Technology Partnerships at Bynder
One of the biggest challenges many enterprises have is being able to use and reuse creative assets across their channels. The integration with Storyblok allows our customers to use their creative assets on their websites and, through Dynamic Asset Transformation (DAT) support, adjust the sizing and formatting at the point where the asset is used without impacting the site’s performance.
