Oginify vs Vercel OG

Stay with Vercel OG when

Stay with @vercel/og when your site already lives on Vercel, your team is comfortable writing JSX, and every card follows the same data-driven template (blog post title + author + date).

Use Oginify when

Use Oginify when you need cards for a site you didn't build, when each page deserves a unique creative direction, or when a non-developer needs to ship the image without a deploy.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers about choosing between Oginify and Vercel OG.

I already use @vercel/og. Do I still need Oginify?

Not for the templated pages you've already wired up. Oginify is useful when you want richer, less templated cards — landing pages, marketing one-offs, or pages on third-party platforms where you can't deploy your own edge function.

Can Oginify produce the same image @vercel/og produces?

Different goal. @vercel/og lets you render anything you can describe in JSX. Oginify reads the page and proposes four finished compositions you can use as-is. They overlap when you want a polished card without writing the template yourself.

Does Oginify need Vercel or Next.js?

No. The output is a 1200×630 PNG plus the matching <meta> tags. Drop them into any framework, CMS or static site.
