Developer-First Cookie Consent Manager Without Performance Impact

Cookie consent banners slow down websites and frustrate developers with complex privacy compliance requirements. c15t provides developer-first cookie management that handles GDPR/CCPA compliance with minimal code, zero performance impact, and clean integration with modern frameworks.

Overall

Problem Statement

Developers integrating cookie consent tools face bloated SDKs (50-200KB), CLS-inducing banners, and complex configuration for multi-region compliance. Each new privacy regulation requires updates. Testing consent flows across regions is manual and error-prone. The consent tool itself becomes a performance liability.

The Idea

A lightweight, developer-first cookie consent manager that handles GDPR, CCPA, and global privacy compliance with a single script tag, designed for zero performance impact on modern web applications.

Why Now

Privacy regulations are expanding globally (GDPR enforcement increasing, US state privacy laws multiplying). Yet cookie consent tools remain bloated, slow-loading JavaScript widgets that hurt Core Web Vitals. Developers forced to choose between compliance and performance need a better option.

Target User

Frontend developers and engineering teams at companies building consumer-facing web applications that need privacy compliance across GDPR, CCPA, and emerging regulations.

Target Market

Privacy technology, web performance, developer tools, compliance
