Knowledge audits for ServiceNow

Good AI starts with good knowledge.

Certus scans your knowledge base, scores every article for health and AI-readiness, and emails you a report with exactly what to fix.

  • 01Your knowledge is out of date, and no one's sure which articles still hold true.
  • 02Your AI assistant answers confidently from articles that are wrong.
  • 03Half your best content never gets picked up because the AI can't read it.

One file. One report. No connector setup required.

A real Certus finding. This is what lands in your report.

The scan

What Certus looks for

Every article is graded on the things that decide whether a human trusts it - and whether an AI can use it. Here's what shows up in your report.

A - AI-readiness

Language an AI can't use

Vague phrasing, missing context, undefined terms, and structure that reads fine to a colleague but falls apart when an assistant tries to answer from it.

B - Governance

Missing metadata & ownership

Articles with no tags, no owner, no approval, or no category. The gaps that make content impossible to trust, route, or maintain.

C - Freshness

Stale & low-signal content

Articles nobody's viewed, nobody's opened in years, or that quietly stopped being true - scored against views, recency, and feedback.

D - Duplication

Competing answers

Multiple articles covering the same topic. Sometimes that's fine - sometimes it's why your AI gives two different answers to one question. Certus flags which is which.

E - Accuracy signals

Content people distrust

Thumbs-down, low view counts, and abandoned articles surfaced together, so you can see what's actively working against you.

F - The fix

How to rewrite it

Not just what's wrong. Concrete guidance on how to write each article so it works for both your team and the AI era.

Three steps

From export to report

No integration, no IT ticket, no procurement call. Start with a single export and get a full read on your knowledge base.

STEP 1

Send us an export

Export your ServiceNow knowledge base as Excel or CSV. Include the columns we score on: article ID, title, body, meta tags, category, owner, status, total views, last updated, last viewed, and feedback rating.

STEP 2

Certus scans every article

We score each one for governance, freshness, duplication, and AI-readiness - then rank the whole base by what's costing you the most.

STEP 3

You get the report

A clear report lands in your inbox: what's doing well, what's failing, and exactly how to fix the articles that matter first.
