The problem

What was getting in the way.

Hundreds of long-form brand reviews required continual validation against official brand websites. Manual auditing was repetitive, difficult to scale and increased the risk of outdated information remaining live.

Why it was hard

High volume

Hundreds of long-form brand reviews required continual validation.

Constant re-checking

Official brand sites change, so validation is never truly finished.

Reputational risk

Outdated information could remain live and mislead customers.

Hard to scale

Manual auditing was repetitive and could not keep pace.

The solution

What was built.

Developed a scheduled AI governance platform with two workflows: a weekly audit of new reviews and a monthly validation of all published reviews. The system scrapes official brand sites, compares products, features and content, flags inconsistencies, identifies new products and highlights stale reviews of six months or more. Findings are prioritised as red (incorrect information), orange (requires attention) and blue (improvement opportunities).

Design decisions

  • Run two cadences: weekly checks on new reviews and a monthly full validation.
  • Compare against the official source of truth, not internal assumptions.
  • Prioritise findings by severity, rather than flagging everything equally.
