Optimizely Opal Partner

Your first production-ready AI agent in 90 days. Built on Optimizely Opal.

Road Scholar reduced a critical review workflow by 98.5% and now operates approximately ten Opal agents in production. We built the operating model behind that success.

The Agentic Shift

The CMS is becoming an execution system

Optimizely calls this the Agentic CMS: a platform where AI agents generate, optimize, govern, and operate digital experiences using structured enterprise knowledge. As organizations move beyond pilots, attention shifts to identifying the workflows agents should own and establishing the governance, measurement, and operating models required to scale them effectively.

We built our Opal practice around a simple belief: AI creates value when it becomes part of the operating model.

Before it was digital transformation. Now it's agentic transformation.

Road Scholar: From AI pilot to operational capability

Road Scholar treated AI as an operational capability, not a technology experiment. One of the clearest examples: a sustainability itinerary review that once consumed more than 80 hours of senior review time now takes just 5-7 minutes through an Opal-powered agent, while reviews retail full decision-making authority.
