Companies Using Quill

We detect Quill on 27,325 domains, including Prosegur Group, Emerson, Mercedes Benz. A detection means the technology is present on that domain, which for large organisations is often a single storefront or subdomain rather than a company-wide deployment. Among domains we matched to a company with a resolved industry, the most common is Insurance (13.39%).

We detect 27,325 domains running Quill across our monthly crawl of live business domains. Company data could be matched for 15,530 of them (56.8%), and every company-size, industry and country breakdown on this page describes that matched subset rather than the full detected base. A further 4,171 domains carried a Quill detection previously and no longer do.

Quill holds 14.44% of the WYSIWYG Editors category, ranking #4. This is a share of the domains we detect running a platform in this category — not a share of all websites, and not a share of spending — so it is not directly comparable to figures published on other denominators.

The top alternatives to Quill include Froala Editor (30.25% market share), TinyMCE (27.67% market share), CKEditor (20.73% market share), Ace (3.33% market share) — measured as a share of the domains we detect running a platform in this category.

The United States at 3,430 of the companies we can place, with Brazil unusually close in second at 2,601, then France (704), the United Kingdom (681) and India (672). Brazil at that rank is a platform effect rather than a national preference for the library.

60.5% of the companies we can size have 10 employees or fewer and 21.19% have 11 to 50. Quill installs from npm or a CDN with no account or licence, so nothing gates adoption by company size.

37.28% were founded in the 2010s and 23.59% in the 2020s, the youngest profile of the four category leaders. Quill arrived after the CMS-plugin era, so it did not inherit a decade of existing installs the way CKEditor did.

A software or insurance company under 50 people, founded in the 2010s or later, based in the US or Brazil, running a modern build with Tailwind CSS rather than a jQuery-era stack. That covers the majority of the base we can enrich, with the caveat that roughly 7% of it is a single insurance-portal platform.

We detect Quill on 27,325 active domains as of our August 2026 crawl, fourth in the WYSIWYG Editors category at 14.44%. It is matched on its Quill runtime global, its CDN, and the ql-editor class it applies to the editing surface, so part of the count is the library loading and part is the editing surface rendering on a public page.

Yes, it is free and open source under a permissive licence, with no paid tier and nothing to sign up for. It is the only one of the four category leaders in that position: Froala, TinyMCE and CKEditor all have commercial licensing.

Quill is built around its own document model rather than manipulating contenteditable HTML directly, which makes its output predictable and its API smaller, at the cost of the plugin ecosystem the older editors have. In our data the difference shows up in the surrounding stack rather than the feature list: jQuery is on 74.06% of Quill domains against 91.14% for CKEditor, and Tailwind CSS appears on 28.9% of Quill sites. Quill is chosen by newer codebases.

One platform, not a vertical. The segment is 1,880 domains, about 6.9% of Quill's whole base, and it runs a near-uniform stack: 95.4% ipify, 95.3% Azure, 95.6% Modernizr, 84.2% Microsoft ASP.NET. That is a single hosted insurance-portal platform on .NET with Quill embedded. It is the largest single-fleet share of any editor in this category, so it is worth removing before reading Quill's numbers as broad adoption.

Among the largest by headcount: Prosegur (careers.prosegur.com), Emerson (appleton.emerson.com), Mercedes-Benz (diplomatic-sales.mercedes-benz.com), El Corte Ingles (empleo.elcorteingles.es) and Bank Negara Indonesia (wondr.bni.co.id). 43 of the 50 matched on a subdomain, but with no repeated prefix, unlike Froala's newsrooms or CKEditor's investor-relations sites. Scattered internal and regional applications is what a free library chosen by a development team looks like.

Hardly ever. Of the 3,854 domains that dropped Quill entirely, 20 now run another editor we track (7 Froala, 6 TinyMCE, 3 CKEditor, 2 Ace, 1 Editor.js, 1 Trix). That is 0.5%. An editor choice is wired into an application's save path and its stored content, so it does not get swapped on a live product.
