Optimizely Opal Undergoes Massive Transformation to Help Marketers Scale with Agentic AI

Optimizely enhances its AI offering with specialized agents and agentic workflows, making ‘infinite scale’ a reality for marketing and digital teams

Optimizely, the leading digital experience platform (DXP) provider, introduced the next evolution of Optimizely Opal. With the launch of an all-new user interface and a direct embed across the Optimizely One product suite, Opal unlocks infinite use cases for marketing and digital teams—from task automation, to brand-perfect content creation, to end-to-end experimentation analysis and more.

Recognizing that the more relevant information an AI agent possesses, the more effective and accurate it becomes, Opal excels by leveraging comprehensive context. To do this, Opal builds industry-leading context windows by intelligently combining diverse data sources from an organization’s unique corporate knowledge, including existing assets, campaign performance, and experimentation results. Opal has rich memory, further enhanced by Optimizely’s domain expertise incorporating proven content and experimentation best practices. Additionally, Opal agents leverage dozens of tools that are purpose built for marketing and seamlessly integrate with external systems to augment its capabilities. Finally, Opal empowers users to fine-tune the AI with custom instructions and orchestrate these agents within advanced workflows. All of this unlocks unparalleled agentic capabilities and ensures a superior user experience.

This latest release for Optimizely Opal builds on the company’s commitment to making AI accessible, practical, and valuable—further supporting Optimizely’s mission to accelerate the entire content supply chain and make the lives of marketers better through safe and secure tooling.
