A web app that audits a Confluence Cloud workspace for outdated pages, broken external links, and orphaned content, then routes owners automated review nudges on a configurable cadence
Confluence Cloud has no native mechanism to flag stale content, detect broken external links, or surface orphaned pages at workspace scale. The feature request CONFCLOUD-65867 (implement internal and external link validator) is in 'gathering interest' status. Atlassian's documentation explicitly states administrators must click through pages manually to find broken links. The older Server request CONFSERVER-36268 was closed as Won't Fix in 2016. Marketplace apps exist (Broken Links+, Outdated for Confluence) but address single pain points separately and require Jira admin installation rights. No product combines content staleness scoring, broken link crawling, and automated owner routing in a single workspace health view accessible to non-admins. The product: a SaaS tool that connects to Confluence Cloud via OAuth, crawls all spaces the user can access, scores each page on a staleness index (days since edit, owner active?, inbound link count), detects broken external URLs, and sends Slack or email nudges to page owners on a configurable schedule. Admins see a workspace health dashboard. Teams with large Confluence instances (100+ pages) pay per seat.

Gap Assessment
Atlassian explicitly documents the inability to auto-detect broken links. CONFCLOUD-65867 in gathering interest. Existing Marketplace apps address broken links or staleness in isolation but not combined with owner-routing workflows. No standalone SaaS combines all three: staleness scoring, broken link detection, and automated owner nudges.
