Digital experience platform (DXP) vendor Acquia has announced the availability of three new, powerful AI agents for Acquia Source, its next-generation, AI-powered SaaS CMS. They include a Source Site Builder Agent, an AI Writing Assistant Agent, and an AI Web Governance Agent.

“AI and modern SaaS architectures are reshaping how organizations manage and scale digital content experiences. We’re seeing the CMS evolve from a publishing tool into a dynamic system of intelligence, one that unites marketing, product, and development teams around real-time content generation, optimization, and governance,” said James McCormick, Senior Research Director at IDC.
