Why AI-Driven Automation in Xperience Makes It a Scalable, Future-Proof CMS

A modern CMS can’t just be a content box with publishing tools. To stay competitive, it needs to scale, adapt, and anticipate. For many organizations, that means embracing automation powered by AI—not as a bolt-on, but as a core capability.

With Aira in Kentico Xperience, automation becomes more than convenience. It’s a force multiplier: enhancing lifecycle marketing, reducing repetitive work, streamlining decision-making, and laying the groundwork for long-term digital transformation.

Why Automation Matters Now

The volume of digital interactions is exploding. Manual workflows can’t keep pace with customer expectations or organizational growth.

According to Gartner:

• By 2026, 75% of organizations will operationalize AI-driven automation to scale decision-making and reduce costs.

• Teams that adopt AI for content and marketing automation see up to a 30% increase in efficiency and faster time-to-market.

• Digital leaders who rely on automation are 2x more likely to report strong revenue growth compared to those still operating manually.

The message is clear: automation is no longer optional—it’s foundational for scalability and future readiness.

How Aira Powers Automation in Kentico

1. Lifecycle Marketing Automation
   Aira can monitor customer behavior and automatically trigger personalized emails, offers, or content recommendations at the right moment in the journey.

2. Repetitive Task Elimination
   From generating alt text to suggesting SEO metadata or scheduling content pushes, Aira takes the “busy work” off your team’s plate.

3. Decision Fatigue Reduction
   By surfacing prioritized insights and recommendations, Aira helps digital teams focus on strategy while letting AI handle operational choices.

4. Integrated Workflows
   Unlike bolt-on automation tools, Aira works inside Kentico—meaning fewer integrations, smoother governance, and more consistent execution.

5. Continuous Learning
   Because Aira learns from your own site data, its recommendations become sharper over time, making your automation smarter as you scale.

Real-World Benefits

• Marketing Teams: Spend less time configuring workflows, more time refining strategy.

• Enterprise & Associations: Build scalable digital ecosystems without bloated stacks of third-party plugins.

• Leadership: Gain confidence in long-term ROI knowing the CMS grows smarter and more efficient over time.

Why This Makes Kentico Future-Proof

The challenge with most CMS platforms is fragmentation—relying on multiple tools, plugins, and integrations to achieve automation. That creates technical debt, higher costs, and long-term risk.

Kentico, with Aira built in, takes a different approach:

• Native automation instead of bolt-ons.

• Scalability by design, with AI learning from your own data.

• Future-proof architecture that adapts as digital experience requirements evolve.
