Drupal AI Demo: a working, multilingual university site that unites search, review, editing, and translation

The Drupal AI Initiative published a live demo that runs AI search, content review, chat-driven editing, and AI translation together on the same content. The demo simulates a realistic, multilingual university website so evaluators and builders can test configured features rather than read feature lists.

Useful takeaways from this story.

The demo is a live, realistic university website where AI search, content review, chat-driven editing, and AI translation run on the same content.

It lets evaluators test features in-context and lets builders see intended configurations and workflows to adapt to their sites.

The demo was built collaboratively: >100 contributors, 1,442 commits, 616 merged merge requests across 54 projects between 1 Aug and 26 Sep 2026.

Yes, please No, do not track me Introducing the Drupal AI Demo By pdjohnson on 30 September 2026 Author: You can open it, use it, and see for yourself what Drupal AI looks like when it is built as a complete product.

How it works

  • Now you can check it yourself, try the features on realistic content, and plan your own website around capabilities that are already implemented and working.
  • If you already build with Drupal AI, the demo shows how each feature is intended to be used.
  • You can evaluate every feature, see how it is configured, and adapt that setup to your own use case.
  • AI content review scores a page against brand, legal, and readability criteria and suggests concrete improvements AI search.
  • That is what building a real website involves, and it is where the hardest work was.

What to take from it

Some of the hardest problems got solved in that room. The demo is the website of a fictional university, with the kind of content and structure a real organization's site would have. Demo: a realistic, multilingual university website where every AI feature runs on the same content From a list of features to something you can try Until now, Drupal AI has mostly been something we described.

Example or evidence

  • That figure covers module code as well as the demo's content, theme, and configuration, and leaves out build output and lock files.
  • Working together, we could build a more advanced AI experience than any of us could have built alone, and everything we build for the demo makes Drupal AI better for everyone who uses it.
  • My role was to set the direction, define the work packages, and align with key contributors and organizers to make sure we were building the right things.
  • What I had never seen before is so many people building something together that actually works as one.

Details worth keeping

Christoph Breidert, Product Lead, Drupal AI Earlier this year, the Drupal AI Initiative set itself a clear goal: at DrupalCon Rotterdam, show one Drupal site where AI search, content review, chat-driven editing, and AI translation all work together on real content. Demo is live, and Dries revealed it in the Driesnote. We had roadmaps, feature lists, module pages, and conference talks.
