Automated Articulate 360 Review Handoff

Every Monday, WebRun opens Articulate 360, checks which courses are sitting in subject-matter-expert review, books a focused review block in Google Calendar for each reviewer, and drafts a WhatsApp ping naming the course and deadline for the instructional designer to review and send.

In short

How do I keep Articulate 360 course reviews from stalling?

WebRun checks Articulate 360 every Monday for courses waiting over 5 business days on subject-matter-expert review, books a focused review block in Google Calendar for each reviewer, and drafts a WhatsApp ping for the designer to review and send, so course reviews stop stalling in a forgotten queue.

  • Stalled reviews get dedicated calendar time within the week
  • Course launches stop waiting on a forgotten review queue
  • No reviewer ping goes out without the designer's approval

Questions, answered

Will it message reviewers on WhatsApp without the designer?

No. Every ping is drafted and left unsent. WebRun never sends a WhatsApp message on its own, the designer approves and sends each one.

Will it approve or edit the course content?

No. It only tracks what's waiting for review. Approving or editing a course is always done by the SME or the designer.

How long does something need to wait to get flagged?

Over 5 business days in the review queue, so early-stage reviews don't trigger a reminder before they're actually overdue.

Put this on autopilot.
