For Developers and Site Builders

The AI module has a focus on foundational tools, so you can use it out of the box or build your own path to bespoke AI integrations. If you want to install or extend Drupal AI, this is the right place.

Module documentation: describes AI Core, AI Automators, AI Explorer and the ecosystem of related modules.
Installation guide: explains how to install and connect with popular AI services.
API and developer resources: links to GitLab repositories and examples.
Community: contribute, join discussions on Slack in the issue queue.

Submodules

The AI module provides a solid foundation with submodules for framework capabilities, enterprise needs, and developer tooling, while much of the most impressive innovation and specialization happens in the wider contrib ecosystem. All in the end relying on the AI Core.

AI Observability The AI Observability module lets you log and observe every single AI request in full detail. It does it in a standardized PSR-3 ready-for-enterprise way. With OpenTelemetry it opens up to visualize and follow this in DataDog, Grafana, Splunk, Dynatrace etc.	AI API Explorer A debugger that lets you send requests directly in the UI to any type of call and provider that Drupal AI supports. It also gives you example code snippets to move this call into your code.
AI Automators The AI Automators opens up the possibility to fill in a field using previous context. It can happen directly, via cron, via batch and can be automatic or via an editor's decision by using Field Widget Actions.	AI Chatbot Currently the way to run AI Assistants, exposing a frontend for it. In 1.4.x we added abstraction for chatbots and in the future this will be a reference implementation, but the main work happens in contribution space.
AI CKEditor Opens up the possibility to use AI to run agents over marked text or to create text. It uses a plugin system that can be easily extended.	AI Assistants The AI Assistants API is now a wrapper around AI Agents. By 1.5.x release the hope is that the Chatbot can talk directly to agents. Will be deprecated.

Moved out Submodules

When the AI module was first released, AI in Drupal was still in its early stages, so we included a broad set of features to show what was possible. These submodules were never meant to define the only or best way to solve those problems, but to provide practical starting points and examples.

Now, more than a year later, it is clear that AI is useful and works in real projects. That means many of these feature-specific implementations can move into the contrib space, where they can evolve faster, explore different approaches, and let the wider ecosystem determine the best solutions for each use case.

AI Search AI Search adds semantic, vector-based search to Drupal by integrating AI-generated embeddings with Search API, so users can find content by meaning and context rather than exact keywords. It also provides the foundation for RAG workflows, letting agents and chatbots retrieve relevant Drupal content as grounding context for better answers or making normal search pages more relevant. Get Module	AI Content Suggestions AI Content Suggestions gives Drupal editors real-time AI assistance while editing content, including summaries, readability feedback, moderation checks, taxonomy suggestions, title ideas, and tone changes. It integrates into the content editing experience and field widgets so suggestions can be applied contextually where editors are already working. Get Module
AI Translate AI Translate adds AI-assisted content translation to Drupal’s translation workflow, showing a "Translate using AI" option for enabled languages when a translation does not already exist. It is a standalone contrib implementation based on the original AI module translation feature, giving multilingual sites a practical starting point for generating translations through the Drupal AI ecosystem. Get Module	AI Validations AI Validations adds AI-powered validation rules to Drupal fields, letting site builders check text or images against prompts, classifications, or object-detection rules before content is saved. It is useful for enforcing editorial, brand, safety, or compliance requirements directly in the normal Field Validation workflow. Get Module
AI ECA AI Integration - ECA connects Drupal’s AI framework with the Event-Condition-Action module, letting site builders add AI operations into no-code automation workflows. It offers an ECA Agent and also the possibility to do complex AI rerouting and failover processes. Get Module	AI Logging AI Logging captures prompts, model responses, metadata, and related request details so teams can review, debug, and audit AI interactions in Drupal. If you feel that AI Observability is too complex to use, this is the module for you. Get Module
Field Widget Actions Field Widget Actions provides a framework for adding AJAX-enabled action buttons directly to Drupal field widgets on entity edit forms. It lets developers and site builders attach reusable business logic to fields, such as AI generation, workflow triggers, suggestions, or modal-based actions, without hard-coding that behavior into the form. It works flawlessly with AI Automators. Get Module

AI Providers

Drupal AI connects your site to a wide range of AI platforms, 48 and counting. With built-in integrations for providers like amazee, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, Azure, Google Gemini, Google Vertex, Hugging Face, and OpenAI, you can start using powerful AI tools without writing custom code.

prodivers

Each provider module makes it easy to plug specific AI capabilities - like text generation, translation, image creation, or speech processing - directly into Drupal. Whether you’re experimenting with a single service or orchestrating multiple providers, Drupal AI gives you a unified framework to manage them all.

A matrix of providers and what they support.

AI Vector Database (VDB) Providers

In order to use the AI Search module or any custom vector database solution - a key step in providing more accurate answers e.g. for AI Chatbots, AI Assistants, AI Overviews, and many other features - a vector database is needed. Here are some frequently used VDB Providers:

More details can be found via the AI Search module homepage.

Contrib Module Ecosystem

There are over 300+ contrib modules to the AI Ecosystem and we can't list them all here. However there are listing pages that are trying to summarize what is available, see the following.

AI Module Usage

What about coding agents/harnesses?

The AI module mainly focuses on AI being used inside Drupal, there are however many resources that overlaps with using AI from the outside.

AI Best Practices
AI Best Practices provides opinionated and canonical Drupal guidance for AI agents and humans. It helps AI coding tools follow Drupal conventions, APIs, and contribution workflows more reliably.
Tool API
Tool API provides a shared framework for defining reusable Drupal tools. These tools can be used by the CLI, MCP, ECA and the AI module. Write once, use everywhere. Will be a requirement in AI 2.0.
MCP Server
MCP Server lets Drupal expose site-specific capabilities to AI clients through the Model Context Protocol. It builds on Tool API so Drupal actions, data access, and integrations can be made available as configurable tools over transports such as STDIO or HTTP.
Orchestration
Orchestration connects Drupal to external automation platforms, so they can trigger Drupal workflows, AI agents, and business logic. It enables end-to-end automations between Drupal and tools like CRMs, email platforms, spreadsheets, and other services.

Requirements

AI Only has one requirement - the Key module.

Which version should I use?

In general the latest highest minor version is the preferred version since it has the most provider abstraction. Usually your starting point should be one of the feature modules and the dependency they require will decide the version.
