Is getwowlink an alternative to @vercel/og?
Yes. @vercel/og is a free library: a developer writes each design in JSX and runs it in an image route. getwowlink is a hosted service: anyone designs in a visual editor and the site adds one meta tag.
Does getwowlink work outside Next.js?
Yes. It works on any site that renders <head> — WordPress, Ghost, Webflow, PHP, plain HTML or any other stack through a coding agent prompt.
Who handles fonts, emoji and caching?
We do. With @vercel/og you load and bundle fonts yourself and cache with your own headers and CDN; getwowlink serves images from our CDN and rebuilds them when a page changes.
How much does getwowlink cost?
Free for 1 site, then from $59 / year. @vercel/og is a free library; you pay for the function usage that renders the images.
