Before and after prompts for Gemini

Rough request on the left, the PromptDC rewrite on the right.

Before

Summarize these interview notes and tell me why users abandon setup.

After

Analyze the pasted interview notes for reasons users abandon account setup. Group recurring barriers and count how many participants support each theme. Separate direct evidence from interpretation and include one short paraphrase per theme. End with prioritized product questions, not unsupported feature recommendations.

Why this is better: The text adds evidence and prioritization rules so Gemini can turn interview notes into useful findings.

Before

Compare these two cloud proposals for our small engineering team.

After

Compare the two pasted cloud proposals for a small engineering team. Evaluate cost assumptions, support, security duties, migration effort, lock in, and scaling limits. Mark missing information and distinguish quoted facts from inferred consequences. Provide a decision table and list the questions that should be answered before signing.

Why this is better: The text supplies decision criteria and uncertainty labels so Gemini can compare the proposals fairly.

Before

Can you explain why this Python stream sometimes duplicates events?

After

Review the pasted Python streaming code for the source of duplicate events. Trace acknowledgement, retries, checkpoint writes, and behavior after a worker restart. Distinguish expected at least once delivery from an application level duplication bug. Cite the relevant code and suggest a minimal test that reproduces the suspected path.

Why this is better: The text adds delivery semantics and code evidence so Gemini can diagnose duplicates precisely.
