Conductor receives Acquia's 2025 Partner of the Year award as integration streamlines AI-powered content creation for enterprise teams

Conductor, the only end-to-end, enterprise AEO platform, today announced a formal OEM partnership with Acquia, integrating Conductor’s content creation and optimization capabilities directly into the Acquia digital experience platform. As part of the announcement, Acquia has also named Conductor its 2025 Partner of the Year for Advanced Technology, recognizing the collaboration’s impact on customer outcomes and ecosystem growth.

The partnership enables enterprise content teams using Acquia’s CMS to access Conductor Creator functionality natively within their publishing workflows. Rather than switching between systems or exporting drafts for optimization, the agreement means marketers can research, write, and refine content directly within the CMS using AI-driven insights to guide content structure, relevance, and search visibility.

The announcement reflects a broader shift in how organizations approach digital visibility as AI reshapes discovery. As AI-driven experiences increase demand for both higher volume and quality of content, teams need tools to create that content efficiently and at scale. Conductor addresses this need with the market’s leading AI-powered content creation capabilities, embedded directly within Acquia’s CMS, streamlining workflows and enabling Acquia customers to create high-quality, AI-assisted content directly in Acquia Source.

“AI has fundamentally changed where and how customers discover brands,” said Pat Kent, VP of Partnerships at Conductor. “Optimization can no longer be considered something to do once content is published. Instead, it must be built into the creation process. By embedding our capabilities directly into Acquia’s CMS workflows, we are helping teams operationalize AI-ready content at the point of production where it has the greatest impact.”

The integration between the two organizations enables marketing teams to align content strategy with real-time insights as they write, supporting both traditional search performance and emerging answer engine visibility. Reducing friction between content creation and optimization enables enterprises managing complex digital environments to improve efficiency while bolstering governance and consistency.

For Acquia, the OEM agreement builds on a partnership that has already delivered measurable value across joint customers. The Partner of the Year designation reflects technical collaboration, customer adoption, and revenue performance within the Acquia partner ecosystem.

“Our customers expect their digital experience platform to help them publish efficiently and improve results,” said Paul Raisanen, SVP of Partnerships at Acquia. “Conductor has shown that search and AI insights are most valuable when they are accessible inside the tools teams already use. Bringing those capabilities directly into Acquia’s platform gives content teams clearer direction while they are writing, not after the fact.”

AI is changing how content is discovered and evaluated. Content systems can no longer function as basic repositories. This agreement reflects a shared focus on making the creation process more informed, structured, and aligned with how modern discovery actually works.

As enterprises continue to adapt to AI-driven search and generative discovery models, this integration provides Acquia customers with a streamlined path to creating content tailored to how audiences now find and evaluate information.
