Drupal’s AI Leap: What Set It Apart at DrupalCon Atlanta 2025
Akanksha Mishra’s blog post from DrupalCon Atlanta 2025 sheds light on a pivotal shift in the CMS world. While WordPress maintains its popularity, Drupal is steering the innovation ship—especially with its AI-driven features. The spotlight was on AI Recipes, intelligent templates that adapt to project goals and automate site structure and content strategy. From nonprofits to media hubs, Drupal’s AI can now build smarter prototypes with accessibility and audience behaviour in mind, all out of the box.
The reveal of Experience Builder marked another defining moment. Designed for content creators and marketers, it extends far beyond drag-and-drop tools. With features like global region editing and multi-page drafts powered by AI, it turns Drupal into a dynamic experience design studio. And crucially, it’s all open-source—no paywalls, no tiers. Drupal isn’t just adding AI; it’s integrating it in a way that redefines how teams collaborate on the web.
