Stop "Knowledge Rot": Introducing FreshPage for Confluence 🟢

[#1]

Does your team trust your wiki?

Be honest. When you open a Confluence page—a runbook, an HR policy, a "How-To" guide—do you trust it implicitly? Or do you instinctively check the "Last Updated" date, do some mental math ("Is 2023 too old for this?"), and then message a colleague just to be safe?

If you are double-checking, your documentation isn't doing its job.

This is called "Knowledge Rot." It’s the silent killer of productivity. It turns your carefully curated knowledge base into a digital ghost town where users are afraid to rely on what they read.

We built FreshPage to fix this.

The "Traffic Light" System for Trust 🚦

FreshPage is a new Confluence Cloud app that answers the one question every reader has: "Is this content still true?"

It adds a simple, visual freshness banner to the top of every page. No mental math required.

• 🟢 Fresh: This content is verified and safe to use.

• 🟡 Aging: Heads up! This hasn't been checked in a while.

• 🔴 Stale: Danger! Proceed with caution.

Why "Last Updated" isn't enough

We've all seen pages that haven't been edited in two years but are still perfectly accurate (like a mission statement). And we've seen pages edited yesterday that are already wrong.

FreshPage separates Activity from Validity.

The "Lazy" Way to Maintenance (That Actually Works) 😴

The #1 reason documentation goes stale? Updating it is a chore. You have to click "Edit," make a minor change, save, and publish.

FreshPage changes the game with One-Click Verification.

If a Subject Matter Expert (SME) sees a Yellow banner on a page that is still accurate, they just click "Mark as Fresh" right on the banner.

• No Edit Mode.

• No publishing drafts.

• Instant Green status.

Smart Enough for Real Teams 🧠

We know not every page needs a shelf life.

• Evergreen Content: Tag your historical meeting notes or foundational policies as freshpage-evergreen, and they will stay Green forever.

• Custom Thresholds: Set Engineering docs to expire in 30 days, but HR docs in 90 days. You control the rules.

Try it Free & Stop the Rot

I built this because I was tired of second-guessing my own documentation. I’d love for you to try it and see if it brings trust back to your team's wiki.

P.S. For the admins out there – yes, you can configure different thresholds for different spaces along with global configuration for all spaces! and also can verify pages in bulk 🛠️
