AI agent for internal communications managers
Intranet Content Freshness Agent
Keep every important intranet page current, owned, and free of broken links.
What it does
Intranet pages go stale quietly. This agent runs each month, crawls the pages, and finds old review dates, broken links, and pages with no clear owner. It checks the page analytics so that heavily used pages come first. It sends each owner a review request listing the exact problems, and tracks replies. Owners who do not reply get a second request, then their manager is told. After owners say they fixed a page, the agent crawls it again to confirm the problem is gone. Pages with no owner and no visits become candidates for archiving, which you approve. Edge case: a benefits page with a dead link to the old provider is pushed to the top of the list.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

- Pages over 12 months without review are stale (default)
- Heavily visited pages go first
- Pages with no owner and under 10 visits a quarter are archive candidates
- Second request after 5 working days
