Following the launch of Contentful Studio, Contentful are continuing to bolster their personalisation offering with the acquisition of Ninetailed, content personalisation and experimentation specialists.
The merger combines the powerful composability of the Contentful platform with an API-first architecture, backed by generative AI and high-speed content delivery to equip marketers with cutting-edge tools to streamline workflows and boost user engagement - all within a single platform.
What does this mean for Contentful users?
Contentful's acquisition of Ninetailed has significant advantages for digital professionals using Contentful or looking to add the leading headless CMS platform to their technology stack. The integration of Ninetailed's AI-driven personalisation technology into Contentful’s platform enhances the users’ ability to deliver data-driven customer experiences at scale. This allows Contentful users to create, experiment with, and optimise content across channels, without the need for complex processes or developer input.
This is especially great news for marketers, who can now set up streamlined workflows and enjoy more efficient content creation, while also conducting experimentation and monitoring real-time performance directly within the Contentful platform.
Following Contentful’s recent launch of Studio, the platform is continuing to support low-code tools, making it easier for marketing teams to craft personalised content experiences, while technical users can still leverage the powerful API-first architecture of the Contentful platform. Additionally, the acquisition brings enhanced capabilities in data integration and generative AI. Ultimately, Contentful users will benefit from a more comprehensive and scalable solution for creating personalised customer journeys, allowing them to drive meaningful engagement and improve business outcomes.
