c15t vs Didomi
Didomi is a hosted consent platform with documentation for versions, proofs, consent proof reports, and consent events APIs.
c15t is the better starting point when consent needs to affect product behavior, backend state, scripts, and framework startup. Didomi is useful when hosted proofs, reports, and platform workflows are the first requirement. CookieBench also lists c15t's Next.js and React examples above Didomi on score, banner visibility, and network impact.
Warning
Consent tooling does not guarantee legal compliance by itself. Your policies, disclosures, vendor list, regional behavior, and record-keeping still need to match your legal requirements.
Why c15t wins here
- c15t supports durable consent records in hosted and self-hosted modes.
- c15t gives developers JavaScript, React, Next.js, scripts, backend, and CLI packages.
- c15t keeps server-visible consent state available to your app.
- c15t supports policy packs, script loading, iframe blocking, and network blocking.
- c15t lets engineering decide where consent data lives and how it integrates with the rest of the system.
