Partnership in action

The partnership between BizStream and Kontent.ai is a long-standing one. BizStream was one of the first agencies in the USA to join forces with Kontent.ai and has had a strong long-term relationship with Kontent.ai’s product owners and leadership.

Their team is stacked with members with various Kontent.ai certifications, including Kontent Business Certification, Kontent Content Modeler, and Kontent Developer Certification. In addition, BizStream helped develop the Content Modeling competency with Kontent.ai and has passed it with flying colors.

BizStream was one of the first companies in the world to get a deep dive into the Kontent.ai Headless CMS solution. Their first Kontent.ai implementation took only 12 days to build and provided a 200% increase in leads. 

Their second implementation with Kontent.ai included omnichannel distribution of content for customers around the United States. Since then, they have implemented multiple Kontent.ai projects with great success in .NET, Gatsby, and Jamstack.
