Before and after prompts for ChatGPT
See how specific context, constraints, and outcomes turn a rough request into a prompt ChatGPT can act on.
Create an executive brief
Before PromptDC
Summarize this report for my boss.
After PromptDC
Role: Strategy analyst briefing a time-poor COO. Task: Summarize the attached quarterly operations report. Constraints: Use only supplied facts and flag missing data. Output: 5 bullets, 3 risks, 3 decisions, then a 60-word email. Cite the source page after every metric.
Why this is better: Role, audience, evidence limits, and exact output format make ChatGPT's answer dependable.
Plan user interviews
Before PromptDC
Give me questions to ask users about our app.
After PromptDC
Role: Senior product researcher. Context: Trial users leave a budgeting app before bank linking. Create a neutral 30-minute guide for recent trial users. No leading questions, hypotheticals, or financial-detail requests. Output: opening, 10 questions with probes, and closing.
Why this is better: The research question, participant, ethics, duration, and deliverable are concrete.
Explain a contract clause
Before PromptDC
Explain this contract and tell me if it is bad.
After PromptDC
Role: Explain the indemnity clause in plain language, not as counsel. Audience: A non-lawyer purchasing manager in the UK. Identify obligations, triggers, exclusions, duration, and ambiguity. Separate clause meaning from questions to raise with counsel. Output a two-column table and five prioritized questions.
Why this is better: It narrows the analysis, prevents overclaiming, and makes the response actionable.
