In this paper, we present an algorithm to correct optical light curves obtained using The Zwicky Transient Facility Forced Photometry Service and its application to the analysis of optical variability of 136 actvie galactic nuclei (AGN) powered by “light-weight” supermassive black holes (SMBH; $M_{BH}$<210^6 $\odot$) including 24 intermediate-mass black holes (IMBH; $M_{BH}$<210^5 $\odot$). We detected variability in nearly all sources and also analyzed its dependence on the X-ray luminosity for 101 objects. We also identified a previously unknown candidate tidal disruption event (TDE) in SDSS~J112637.74+513423.0.
