Built for humans and agents

Everything people do in Pagecycle, an agent can do too: check a page, move it, set its next review, find what's overdue, or change a space's workflow. In Rovo, or from Claude, Codex and Cursor over MCP, with exactly its user's permissions.

What Confluence does, and what Pagecycle adds

Pagecycle builds on Confluence's status instead of replacing it, so every improvement Atlassian ships still works.

Pages that move on their own

Two automations ship switched on, and space admins build more from When, If and Then. Each runs once per occurrence, and History names it on every change it makes.

Your pages never leave Atlassian

Pagecycle runs on Atlassian: no remote back end, no external services.

Forge storageWorkflows and History, following your site's data residency
  • Page content and titles are never stored; edits are noticed by a fingerprint of the page body
  • The board counts a page only after checking the viewer's permission on it
  • Uninstalling deletes Pagecycle's stored data; page statuses stay on your pages

Questions admins ask

How do we roll it out?

Turn it on in one space, set its statuses and the moves allowed between them, and add spaces as teams are ready. Each space can run its own workflow.

What do people see on a page?

The page's status under its title, its next review date, and a Move to button that offers only the allowed moves. History shows who moved the page, when and why.

Does it work with Confluence approvals?

Yes. On Premium and Enterprise, Pagecycle respects every approval: it checks Confluence before each automatic move and asks before a move would end an approval.

Where is our data?

In your Confluence site. Workflows and history live in Atlassian's storage and follow your site's data residency. Nothing is sent outside Atlassian.

What if we change our minds?

Statuses stay on your pages, because they're Confluence's own. Uninstalling removes Pagecycle's stored workflows and history.
