  • Your XP licence renewal is coming and nobody has a clear SitecoreAI business case
  • Upgrades take months and keep getting deferred
  • Your site is slow, and changing a component needs a full release
  • You use little of xDB personalisation and analytics but still pay to run it
  • You want a headless, composable architecture but fear a long rebuild
Migration paths

Every route to SitecoreAI, and the upgrades in between

Wherever your Sitecore estate is today, there is a safe next step.

Sitecore XP → SitecoreAI

The most common route: self-hosted XP to SaaS, xDB-dependent features replaced, headless Next.js on Experience Edge.

Sitecore XM / SXA → SitecoreAI

XM and SXA sites rebuilt headless, with content serialised and moved by repeatable scripts.

JSS → Content SDK

Existing Next.js JSS apps moved to Sitecore’s Content SDK, with framework and Node upgrades.

MVC → headless Next.js

Server-rendered renderings rebuilt as typed Next.js components that editors still use in Pages.

Sitecore 8.x / 9.x → 10.x

When SaaS is not right yet: an in-place XP upgrade that keeps you supported and ready to move later.

Other CMS → SitecoreAI

WordPress, Drupal, Umbraco or legacy .NET platforms re-platformed onto SitecoreAI with SEO preserved.

See the patterns behind each route on our SitecoreAI use cases page.

What is included

Readiness assessment

Headless Next.js front-end

MVC or SXA renderings rebuilt as Next.js components on Experience Edge, editable in Pages.

SEO preservation

Every URL inventoried and preserved or redirected, metadata and structured data carried over, Core Web Vitals benchmarked.
