Drupal AI modules worth knowing about

Session Category Site-Building Audience Beginner

The Drupal AI ecosystem has exploded over the past year, but most of the attention goes to a handful of headline modules. Meanwhile, a growing collection of smaller, focused AI modules is quietly solving real problems for site-builders and many people don't even know they exist.

This session is a guided tour of AI modules you've probably never heard of. We'll start with the practical question of how to actually find AI-related modules on Drupal.org and evaluate which ones are worth your time. Then we'll dive into live demos of at least five different modules, including AI Metering for tracking AI usage and costs across providers, and AI Browser Provider for working with browser-based AI directly from Drupal.

Everything in this session is aimed at site-builders. No code, just configuration, live demos, and a practical look at what each module does and when you'd reach for it. You'll leave with a list of tools to try on your next project and a better sense of how to keep up with the rapidly expanding AI module landscape in Drupal.

Live demos throughout.
