Listen "The K–12 CMS Market: Consolidation, and the AI Effect"
Episode Synopsis
The K–12 website landscape is transforming fast. Once a fragmented field of niche vendors, the Content Management System (CMS) market has rapidly consolidated — with Finalsite and Apptegy now powering more than 40% of North American school district websites. In this episode, we unpack how this shift is reshaping communication, accessibility, and accountability in education. From AI-driven automation to the growing demand for ADA and WCAG compliance, we explore the trends that now define platform decisions. Districts are also moving beyond simple web publishing, seeking all-in-one ecosystems that integrate sites, notifications, and parent messaging under a single, unified platform. Tune in to understand what this consolidation means for schools, vendors, and the future of digital communication in K–12 education.
