ZCORE™ is building advanced AI capabilities—including automated content creation, intelligent metadata tagging, and accessibility optimization—on top of Drupal AI to deliver next-generation, AI-enabled government digital services. This secure, scalable, and cost-efficient CMS foundation aligns with federal standards and offers agencies a modern digital platform at a significantly lower cost.
The Government Digital Content Challenge
Federal digital teams face persistent challenges:
Fragmented, legacy CMS platforms across large enterprise environments
Manual, labor-intensive content creation and publishing workflows
Inconsistent metadata, accessibility, and compliance enforcement
Long publishing timelines that delay mission-critical updates
High licensing and operating costs from proprietary CMS platforms
As agencies manage hundreds or thousands of public-facing sites, legacy systems struggle to scale—driving inefficiency, inconsistency, and rising total cost of ownership.
The AI-Powered Content Management System Foundation
ZCore is an AI-enhanced Drupal CMS that transforms how government organizations manage digital content by automating the most time-consuming and error-prone tasks:
- Automated content creation and optimization
- Intelligent metadata tagging and classification
- Built-in accessibility checks aligned to Section 508
- Streamlined workflows for faster publishing and updates
- Improved cybersecurity posture through standardized, secure architecture
The result is a secure, scalable CMS platform that reduces manual effort, improves consistency, and accelerates digital operations across the enterprise.
