Official docs: Nuxt Documentation
AI-powered headless CMS (formerly Kentico Kontent). Mid-market enterprises wanting AI-assisted content operations, but these limitations push teams toward modern alternatives.
Expensive starting price ($249/month) limits accessibility
This is the most common reason teams migrate away from Kontent.ai. Nuxt eliminates this issue entirely.
Smaller developer community and fewer tutorials
With Nuxt, auto-imports and file-based routing reduce boilerplate.
AI features are more marketing than substance in some areas
Modern architectures like Nuxt are designed to avoid this from the ground up.
Migration tools are limited for moving content in or out
After migrating, you'll no longer need to worry about this — Nuxt takes a fundamentally different approach.
Vue.js framework for SSR, SSG, and full-stack apps. Built with JavaScript/TypeScript (Vue.js), it's vue.js teams building content sites or full-stack applications.
Auto-imports and file-based routing reduce boilerplate
Hybrid rendering — SSR, SSG, ISR, and SWR per route
Nuxt Content module for Git-based Markdown content
Large Vue.js ecosystem and module library
Nuxt is open-source and free to use. You own your code and data with no vendor lock-in. Deploy to any host that supports JavaScript/TypeScript, or use managed platforms like Vercel and Netlify for zero-config deployments.

A detailed breakdown of how your Kontent.ai content maps to Nuxt
What may need manual attention
Custom server-side logic, third-party integrations, and platform-specific plugins will need equivalent solutions in Nuxt. The core content (text, images, metadata) transfers cleanly.
Migrate your content in three simple steps
Enter your Kontent.ai site URL — LeaveWP connects automatically.
Select Nuxt as destination and choose content options.
Download your migrated content or preview it in your browser.
Migrating from Kontent.ai to Nuxt makes the most sense if you're experiencing expensive starting price ($249/month) limits accessibility or outgrowing Kontent.ai's architecture. Nuxt is best for vue.js teams building content sites or full-stack applications.
You should migrate if: your Kontent.ai site is slow, your hosting costs are climbing, you need developer flexibility, or you want to adopt a modern JAMstack architecture.
You might want to stay if: your Kontent.ai site benefits from ai-powered content suggestions and optimization and you don't have JavaScript/TypeScript developers on your team. Kontent.ai is genuinely easy to use, and that simplicity has value.
The migration itself is straightforward with LeaveWP — enter your Kontent.ai URL, select Nuxt, and download your content. The more important question is whether Nuxt's architecture fits your team's skills and your project's long-term needs.
