Hermes Marketing Agent — Autonomous SEO, Content & Campaign Analytics

The Hermes Marketing Agent is your autonomous content and campaign operations assistant. It monitors SEO performance, schedules and analyzes social media content, tracks email campaign metrics, generates content briefs, and surfaces competitive intelligence — all on autopilot. Whether you're a solo marketer or leading a growth team, this agent handles the recurring work: weekly performance reports, ranking drop alerts, content refresh suggestions, and competitor domain comparisons.

This agent connects to your analytics, SEO tools, email platforms, and project boards through CorpusIQ MCP connectors to create a unified marketing command center.

Overview

The Marketing Agent replaces manual marketing operations with scheduled monitoring, reporting, and alerting. Instead of checking GA4, Search Console, Ahrefs, and Klaviyo individually, your team receives consolidated reports and automated alerts delivered to Slack or email.

SEO monitoring Rank tracking, keyword cannibalization alerts, featured snippet opportunities, Core Web Vitals
Content performance Top pages by traffic, engagement, and conversions; content decay detection
Campaign analytics Cross-channel performance (email, social, paid) with ROAS calculation
