Contentstack, which offers a headless content management system and the composable digital experience software, has announced a solution to tackle what it calls the perennial challenges of personalization for digital marketers. This announcement, which will be made today during ContentCon in Austin, Texas, the company’s annual customer conference, includes premium features integrated within the headless CMS, supported by ContentStack’s “no-fail promise” customer support services.
Addressing the Brand Relevancy Crisis
Contentstack CEO Neha Sampat highlighted in a press conference before the news the pressing issue of the "brand relevancy crisis." Sampat painted a picture of the current digital landscape where brands struggle to stand out amidst overwhelming noise and data saturation. She emphasized the need for hyper-personalized digital experiences as the new competitive frontier for brands.
“Brands are experiencing a relevancy crisis. Our customers tell us they fear digital sameness and feel overrun by tech and the pace of change,” Sampat said in a statement. “We know that personalized digital experiences are the solution; they’re also significantly hard to achieve. Today’s announcement makes personalization at scale simple and real — for the first time ever. No other solution on the market is as comprehensive and no other company invests as much in customer success.”

“We’ve been developing this personalization solution behind the scenes in concert with customers — listening to their biggest challenges and building ways to overcome them,” added Egan. “Now, marketers can create personalized content for a near infinite number of audiences in the same time it previously took to create for one. And it all lives inside the headless CMS.”
Looking Ahead at Digital Experiences
As Contentstack gears up for ContentCon today, the focus on personalization, AI-driven content creation and automation positions the company as navigating the brand relevancy crisis. Officials promise the innovations will empower brands to connect with consumers more meaningfully, driving engagement and differentiation in an increasingly crowded digital landscape.
Personalization certainly is no walk in the park, however. Only 24% of CX practitioners rate their personalization efforts as highly personalized, almost identically mirroring previous research that found only 26% of consumers rate their last company interaction as highly personalized.
