AI agent for content writers
Reader Question Topic Mining Agent
Turn reader questions into a ranked list of new posts and updates.
What it does
Readers tell you what they want to know in comments, replies and search queries, but the ideas are scattered and forgotten. Each week this agent collects questions from your comments, email replies and search data and groups them by topic. For each group, it checks whether an existing post already answers the question. If it does, it suggests a link or a refresh instead of a new post. If not, it adds a new topic to the content plan with the evidence: how many readers asked and the exact wording. It checks that each topic is not a duplicate of a planned idea. The writer approves what goes on the calendar.
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.
