Cookie Craft vs CookieYes
CookieYes is a hosted CMP with an automatic scanner and simple setup. Cookie Craft is a first-party runtime with root-domain pricing across twelve platforms. Here is the honest difference.
back to all comparisons
Where they differ
CookieYes loads its consent runtime as a script from its own CDN, and prices by domain, page count per scan and monthly pageviews. That is convenient for a straightforward site — and it includes an automatic scanner, which Cookie Craft does not. Cookie Craft trades the hosted convenience for a first-party runtime on your own server, unlimited pages and traffic, and one price per root domain that covers every subdomain.

| Pages | Unlimited | 100–8,000 per scan by plan |
| Subdomains | Included, unlimited | Unlimited on Pro/Ultimate |
| Consent Mode v2 | Included | On all plans |
| Automatic scanner | No | Yes |
| Platforms | 12, one core + native connectors | Generic web + app/plugin integrations |

Who should choose which
Different tools for different situations — we would rather tell you.
Choose CookieYes if
You want a hosted setup with an automatic scanner on a single site, and your traffic and page counts sit comfortably inside a plan tier.
Choose Cookie Craft if
You outgrow pageview or page limits, run many subdomains or several platforms, or want the consent runtime first-party on your own server.
Either way
Both implement Consent Mode v2. The real decision is hosted-and-scanned versus first-party-and-unmetered.
First-party, unmetered, twelve platforms.
One price per root domain — pages, traffic and subdomains included.
