ContentMap Auditor
ContentMap Auditor is a web app (with optional browser extension) that helps teams keep their information architecture aligned with what’s actually published. It connects to a CMS (Contentful, Sanity, WordPress, SharePoint) and crawls content types, metadata, URLs, and internal links to build a living “content-to-IA map.” It then flags common IA failures: orphaned pages, duplicate or near-duplicate topics, inconsistent metadata, broken parent-child relationships, and navigation paths that don’t match the intended taxonomy.
This is an AI-assisted app: it uses LLMs to suggest taxonomy merges/splits, propose better labels, and generate a “recommended placement” for new or messy content based on examples from your existing structure. But it’s not a magic button—humans approve changes. The app produces actionable outputs: a prioritized backlog of IA fixes, exportable tickets (Jira/Linear), and change-impact reports (what nav items, breadcrumbs, and search facets would change).
Brutal reality: many orgs know their IA is drifting but lack time and instrumentation. This tool wins by turning IA maintenance into a repeatable monthly audit with measurable deltas, not a big redesign project.
