Umbraco and AI
Adopt AI Without Losing Control
Move forward with AI confidently, knowing your platform won’t lock you into providers, pricing, or short-term AI decisions in a rapidly evolving AI landscape.

Umbraco’s AI strategy is built around our core principle of keeping the CMS stable and AI flexible. Instead of hard-coding AI into the core, we provide a platform where AI is modular, optional, and configurable. Use AI where it adds value, extend it when needed, and stay in control as technology, teams, and your needs and requirements evolve.
AI on Your Terms
Choose models. Define behavior. Stay in control. With full ownership of your data, costs, and rules.
Modular AI Experiences
Use what you need. Extend when you want. No bundled AI or forced features.
AI Everywhere Umbraco Is
Inside Umbraco. Outside Umbraco. Always connected. From the backoffice to external workflows.
Umbraco.AI is the foundation for AI inside the Umbraco backoffice. It gives you full control over models, behavior, tone, and governance, before AI reaches editors or content. Define rules once and apply them consistently across all AI features.
On top of Umbraco.AI, modular AI packages deliver everyday value for editors and teams. Features like prompts, Copilot, and automation are opt-in. You enable what you want, when you want, and they always respect the rules you’ve already defined. Adopt broadly useful AI today and extend with partner or community solutions tomorrow.
AI doesn’t live in one product or one place — and Umbraco is built to work wherever AI happens. Alongside AI inside the CMS, Umbraco also supports AI tools and automation beyond it. With tools like the Developer MCP, Umbraco content can power external AI systems in a structured, governed way, extending your platform without adding complexity.
Explore the Developer MCP
AI models and providers evolve fast. Umbraco lets you change and adapt as needed, without rebuilding your CMS or being tied to a single vendor.
Enable AI where it supports your work. Skip what you don’t need. No fixed AI suite, no pressure to adopt features that don’t fit.
Decide where your data goes, which AI providers and models are used, and how AI is applied. Built for compliance, trust, and peace of mind.
Pay only for the AI you use. Choose providers directly and avoid bundled markups or surprise usage fees.
AI supports your teams, but never replaces them. Built-in confirmation and approval keep humans in the loop by design.
Adopt AI gradually and expand over time. Add new capabilities or workflows as your needs evolve.
Connect AI to your content platform on your terms, with governance, flexibility, and scale built in.
Let's talk
No. AI is completely optional. You decide if, when, and where AI is used. Umbraco works just as well without AI, and you can adopt it gradually as your needs and confidence grow.
No. Umbraco lets you choose which AI models and providers you want to use — and change them over time. This helps you avoid lock-in and adapt as technology, pricing, or regulations evolve.
You stay in control of your data. Umbraco doesn’t train AI models on your content, and you decide where data is sent and which AI features are allowed to access it. This makes governance, compliance, and trust easier to manage.
AI usage is transparent and under your control. You only use the AI features you enable, and you pay AI providers directly, without hidden markups. That makes costs easier to understand, monitor, and scale responsibly.
Umbraco is built for change. AI is modular and configurable, so new models and capabilities can be adopted without re-platforming or disrupting your CMS. Your content platform stays stable, even as AI evolves.
