Is there a good Page Builder I can implement in my web app?

I've been working on a small SaaS called My Cosplace, and part of the feature-set is the ability to easily setup a virtual portfolio (single page photo gallery with social links). I built a crude Page Builder UI with a few basic templates I created.

However, the page build itself isn't really the focus of the product, and isn't necessarily the selling point. Instead of spending hours building a better UX for the page builder, I'd rather use existing tech that is focused on that specific ability. I don't need it white labeled or anything, as I'm not trying to just sell another page builder. But, I need it to be something I can embed/implement within my app's UI, so that users aren't redirected somewhere causing confusion.

My user base is comprised of a mix of tech and non-tech people, so it needs to be something that isn't overwhelming to a non-tech person. Restrictive is fine (e.g. adjust text/color/images of existing template), and starting from a blank page building the entire thing yourself is a plus, but not necessary.

For reference, I'd love for it to be something similar to Carrd's experience, but that's just a preference, not a hard need.

I found https://beefree.io/, and it seems to be the general idea of what I want. I wasn't too happy with it after trying it out in my app, but it's the right concept.

I was wondering if there's anything else out there like this?

    Hey there -- you might want to reach out to some of the SaaS Shopify page builders. Some of them also work with BigCommerce, so it may not be too difficult to adapt to your needs. This article is related to Shopify and Pagefly vs Shogun, but it may still be helpful:
