Task 4.1: Agent Idea
Name: ImpactNarrator Goal: Automatically generate short, data-backed impact stories from community engagement records so marketing teams can publish them quickly. Self-Improvement: Learns from editor feedback (edits/rejections) and improves story structure, tone, and factual accuracy over time. Human-in-the-Loop: Human approval required before publishing; editors provide feedback when content is incorrect or too promotional.
PS: I worked at collaboratory (a community engagement platform) and I used to have the above problem, maybe Hive could have solved it.
