This page describes the updates Acquia made to Acquia Optimize in 2025.
Type | Release Note |
Feature | New Report: Compliance Trends¶Issue: It was difficult to identify trends and optimize compliance strategies on multiple domains. Solution: Acquia now provides a centralized way to analyze and compare data on multiple domains. The new Compliance Trends report enables users to generate comparative reports with a few clicks. This report provides a side-by-side view of compliance scores across all domains in an account. It also compares the most recent scores with those from the last scan conducted within the past 30–60 days. Users can now track compliance trends over time to make more informed, data-driven decisions. How to access: Navigate to the Report Center and scroll to the Consolidated Reports section. |
Feature | Optimize Drupal Module¶Acquia introduces the official Optimize Drupal Module, which is available for all Optimize accounts. Key features:
This integration streamlines page optimization for Drupal users and ensures that key compliance and quality checks are performed before the content goes live. |
Change | Policies¶✔ AI-Assisted Policies: Increased font size on the conversation screen from 12px to 14px for better readability. |
Change | Quality Assurance¶✔ Added sorting options for the "Misspellings" and "Potential Misspellings" columns in the Pages with Misspellings view. |
Fix | Scans¶✔ Resolved an issue where scans in "Retry" status would attempt to re-scan indefinitely, blocking the queue. Now, if a scan fails 20 times, the domain is set to inactive, and an email notification is sent to account users. |
Fix | ✔ Fixed incorrect preamble text in the "Pages with Ignored Checks" view. |
Type | Release Note |
Feature | AI-Assisted Policies¶The Policy Assistant is a new AI-powered feature within Acquia Optimize Global Policies that makes creating custom policies effortless. With a conversational interface, users can interact with the AI Assistant to generate policies tailored to their specific needs. Once a policy is created, users simply select the domain(s) to apply it to during scans. Availability: AI-Assisted Policies is available exclusively to customers with the Policies module enabled.

Feature | New Report: Compliance Trends¶Managing multiple domains without a centralized way to analyze and compare data can make it difficult to spot trends and optimize compliance strategies. The new Compliance Trends report provides a side-by-side comparison of compliance scores across all domains within an account. It highlights trends by comparing the most recent scores with those from the last domain scan within the past 30–60 days. For the first time, users can easily track compliance trends over time and make data-driven decisions. How to Access: Navigate to the Report Center and scroll down to the Consolidated Reports section. |
Change | Performance Module: Lighthouse Upgraded from Version 10 to 12.2¶The Optimize Performance module runs audits using Google Lighthouse, which has now been upgraded from version 10 to 12.2. Key Notes:
|
Change | Policies Added an “Add Policy with AI” button to the Policy List and Global Policy Dashboard views, directing users to the Policy Assistant. |
Fix | Policies Resolved an issue where duplicate policies were sometimes created when saving a new policy. |
Change | Domains Overview Updated the status message for domain groups during scans from “No data available” to “Scan in progress” for better clarity. |
Change | Report Center Simplified report names by removing the word "report" from all list entries, improving readability. |
Type | Release Note |
Feature | Browser Extension enhancements Improved icon states in browser toolbar We introduced a disabled state for the Browser Extension icon in the browser toolbar, that makes it easier for users to identify whether the extension is enabled or disabled on a webpage.
This update helps prevent confusion when users forget that they previously disabled the Extension on a specific page and wonder why it does not open the next time they visit. |
Change | Browser Extension Quick Scan progress bar We replaced the static spinner on the Quick Scan screen with a progress bar. This enhancement provides users with clear visibility into the scan’s progress, and shows which stage it is in and how far along it has progressed. |
Change | Removal of legacy score calculation The legacy compliance score calculation option has been fully removed from the Optimize UI. This feature previously allowed users to use an older method of calculating compliance scores in Acquia Optimize. As part of this change, we have also removed the Account Settings menu in Admin Settings, where users previously enabled or disabled legacy score calculations. |
