c15t vs Ketch

Choose c15t to own consent components, vendor rules and the backend. Compare Ketch's connected privacy platform and the services c15t does not supply.

Get started

Choose c15t when your product team owns consent.

c15t is the stronger fit when your main task is consent inside a web application. Your team can change the components, review vendor rules and release the consent code with the product.

Ketch serves a broader need: consent across identities and connected systems, with privacy operations in the same platform. It also offers APIs, SDKs and custom interfaces.

Keep consent changes in the product review.

With c15t, your banner, account settings and embedded content can use the same consent state. Your developers can review those changes beside the features that use them.

The framework guides cover React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, Svelte, SvelteKit, Astro, TanStack Start and plain websites. Use headless APIs when the supplied interface does not fit.

Declare each integration and its consent rules in application code. Individual vendor choices let a visitor refuse one vendor within an accepted category.

Ketch also connects consent to application code. c15t's advantage for this task is the combined framework interface, inspectable engine and deployable backend.
