The audit outcomes.

Where your data lands.

The AI processes the database to give you these specific views.

GAP ANALYSIS

Identify empty topics

The AI finds categories with low question counts. You'll know exactly where to focus your content creation efforts.

DENSITY MAP

Spot topic clusters

The AI compares counts across all categories. This shows you which subjects are already saturated in the database.

TOTAL SCALE

Check total availability

The AI calculates the entire pool size. This helps you understand the total scale of the database relative to your needs.

HUMAN REVIEW

Refine content strategy

The AI provides the raw numbers, but you decide which gaps are worth filling based on your specific audience.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI uses the Open Trivia Database tools to build your report.

  3. Calculate total pool

    The AI checks the total number of questions available across the entire system.

    get_global_question_count

  4. Generate density report

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI add new questions to the database?

    No. The AI can only read existing data from the database.

  • 02

    Can the AI change the category names?

    No. The AI only retrieves the names as they exist in the database.

  • 03

    Does the AI know the actual text of every question?

    No. This specific audit task only looks at the counts and availability of questions per category.

  • 04

    How does the AI know which categories are 'empty'?

    It uses the category question count to identify any topics where the count is zero or very low.

  • 05

    Can I use this to find specific questions about a topic?

    No. This specific workflow is designed for density and distribution audits, not for retrieving individual question text.
