Frequently Asked Questions
How the comparison pages here are written, updated, and how to decide when a platform default beats Oginify.
How do you decide which competitors to compare Oginify against?
We compare against tools people actually consider as alternatives — screenshot APIs (Urlbox, ScreenshotOne), code-based renderers (@vercel/og, Satori), design tools (Canva, Figma OG plugins) and no-code image APIs (Bannerbear, Placid). If a tool never comes up in real 'X vs Oginify' searches, it isn't listed.
Are these comparisons biased toward Oginify?
No — each page explicitly calls out the scenarios where the competitor is the better choice. If you're rendering 10,000 cards a day from a CMS on Vercel, @vercel/og wins on latency and cost; the page will say so. The goal is to help you pick the right tool, not to argue ours is always best.
Which comparison rows are used and how are they picked?
Six attributes that actually decide the choice for most teams: setup time, framework lock-in, design control, who on the team can operate it, monthly cost at your volume, and the cost of switching later. Marketing phrases like 'AI-powered' or 'blazing fast' are not comparison rows.
How often are the comparison pages updated?
By hand, whenever a platform ships something that changes the answer. When Vercel bumped @vercel/og's default runtime, when Canva added the Open Graph template pack, when Placid changed pricing — those triggered rewrites. If you spot a stale row, email hello@oginify.com and we re-verify.
Should I use Oginify if I'm already on Next.js with @vercel/og?
If you own the layout, ship OG images from server components, and have a designer maintaining the JSX template, stay on @vercel/og. Come to Oginify when the template no longer scales across every route, or when non-engineers on your team need to regenerate cards after a rebrand.
Can I request a comparison page for a tool that isn't listed?
Yes. Email hello@oginify.com with the tool name and a one-line description of who uses it. If it's a real alternative rather than an adjacent product, we write the page — same six-attribute matrix, same neutral 'stay with X when' / 'use Oginify when' split.
