Related Articles Paragraph Generator

This workflow is designed to automatically generate a short, engaging paragraph for a given webpage or topic. The generated paragraph contains links to the most relevant articles on your website, helping visitors seamlessly navigate to related content. This automation is especially useful for scaling the creation of “Related Articles” sections, boosting user engagement, and improving SEO by interlinking your content efficiently and consistently.

Workflow Overview

The process can be summarized in the following steps:

1. User Interaction & Welcome

   • When the chat is opened, the user is greeted with a welcome message. This message explains the tool’s purpose and prompts the user to enter a topic or URL.

2. Input Handling

   • The user provides a topic or a webpage URL via a chat input widget.

3. Initial Document Retrieval

   • The system retrieves the most relevant document(s) from your website’s knowledge base using the user’s input as a query. This gives the workflow an initial context about the topic.

4. Prompt Construction (Contextualization)

   • A prompt template combines the user’s input and the retrieved document(s) to create a context-aware query.

5. Related Articles Retrieval

   • Using the contextualized prompt, the system retrieves up to 6 of the most relevant articles (excluding the current page) using a second document retriever. The content structure (H1-H4) is considered to ensure relevance.

6. Paragraph Generation Prompt

   • A refined prompt template is prepared for the AI generator. This template instructs the language model to:
     • Write as a skilled, easy-to-understand copywriter.
     • Avoid generic or overly sophisticated language.
     • Write a paragraph with 2 sentences per related article.
     • Turn the most relevant keyword for each article into a markdown link.
     • Exclude the current page from the related articles.
     • Output in the same language as the related articles.
     • If there are no related articles, return a single space character.

7. Keyword Extraction

   • The retrieved related articles are analyzed for keyword frequency, identifying the most useful keywords to be used as anchor text for links in the final paragraph.

8. Final Prompt Assembly

   • Another prompt template incorporates the top keywords and the context for the AI generator.

9. AI Generation

   • A text generation model (LLM) processes the prompt and outputs the final paragraph containing embedded links to related articles.

10. Output Display

    • The generated paragraph is displayed to the user as a chat message, ready to be used on your website.
