Skpr is built on AWS. AWS Bedrock makes it easy to work with different AI models from various providers, removing the need to run any AI infrastructure yourself. With one API, you can tap into models for text, images, and more. Let’s bring the future of content editing to your team.
The AI modules and ecosystem in Drupal
AI isn’t replacing content editors. It’s empowering them. AI is changing the way we create and manage digital content. With Drupal’s AI ecosystem, we can easily integrate and explore how it improves our Drupal sites. And we’re already seeing how it makes a difference:
- CKEditor integrations – AI features that can be called right from the WYSIWYG toolbar.
- Automation modules – Covering tasks like generating alt text, improving SEO, or rephrasing content for different audiences.
This isn’t limited to Alt text for images, it can also support more inclusive written content. For example, generative AI can automatically create Easy Read versions of complex text, simplifying language and structure so content is more accessible to readers with diverse needs. Editors get a solid draft they can refine, ensuring accessibility goals are met without adding significant effort.
AWS Bedrock
For us, that meant flexibility: we could try out different AI models and swap between them without having to rebuild our Drupal integrations. Additionally, AWS Bedrock is accessed from Drupal through an internal network, so data is kept private.At the heart of this movement is the Drupal AI Module, a flexible toolkit of submodules that bring AI directly into content workflows.
Choosing the right model
The Drupal community is moving fast on AI, rallying around a global initiative that’s shaping the future of responsible innovation. The aim is simple: make Drupal the go-to open source CMS for AI integration.We reviewed several different models before we began, comparing them for accuracy, speed, cost, and suitability for editorial tasks. From suggesting keywords to drafting meta descriptions, AI surfaces optimisations in real time, helping content perform better without disrupting the writing flow.
AI in action for Content Editors
Each model has its strengths; some focus on code generation, some on academic content, and others on image processing. With our content editor users in mind, we looked for an all-rounder model that processed text and included image recognition technology. Thanks to the modular approach taken by the community, we can add features incrementally as required.
AI in CKEditor
Need a friendlier tone for your community update? A sharper, more technical explanation for a product page? AI can switch styles in seconds, making it easy to tailor content for different audiences.We’ve been investigating these tools, looking at how they integrate directly into the editorial process:AI can make SEO feel effortless by working alongside editors as they create content.
AI to assist with Accessibility
The result isn’t final, but it’s a high-quality starting point. Editors can quickly review and refine the AI’s suggestion to ensure accuracy and alignment with accessibility standards, saving significant time while maintaining quality.Making your content accessible is essential, but crafting meaningful alt text for images can be tedious, tricky, and is often overlooked. With AI, editors can instantly generate descriptive alt text by analysing the image itself.By combining the flexible DrupalAI toolkit, AWS Bedrock, and the speed of Nova Lite, we’re making content creation more efficient, accessible, and impactful.
AI for SEO
This evolution started with a clear focus: supporting, not replacing, content editors.The real value of AI in Drupal for Content Editors lies in making everyday content workflows smoother, faster, and more engaging.
The Big Picture
If you’re looking to explore how AI can enhance your Drupal site, our PreviousNext and Skpr teams can help with everything from strategic advice to hands-on implementation. Our pick was Nova Lite. It strikes the right balance of quality, performance, and cost-effectiveness for the kinds of quick, high-grade text generation and image processing that we require.It’s more than just rewriting. AI can help expand ideas into richer copy, condense long passages into concise summaries, or adapt existing content to suit different formats. The result is faster turnarounds, more polished content, and less time spent bouncing between tools.With AI built directly into CKEditor, editors can work smarter without breaking their flow. Highlight any text, and AI instantly suggests improvements, rewrites, or alternative phrasings – all without leaving the page.
