Before and after prompts for Manus

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

Before

Find cold chain couriers that can ship cheese from Athens to Berlin.

After

Research cold chain couriers that ship specialty cheese from Athens to Berlin. Confirm service for chilled food between 2 and 8 degrees Celsius from current sources. Compare minimum volume, transit time, tracking, insurance, certifications, and contact route. Deliver a ranked shortlist with source links, check dates, gaps, and recommended next calls.

Why this is better: The prompt adds verification and a ranked deliverable so Manus can complete the vendor research.

Before

Plan four relaxed days in Naxos for my father who struggles with hills.

After

Plan a four day Naxos trip for two people, including one traveler who cannot manage steep hills. Prioritize accessible history, quiet local meals, short transfers, and afternoon rest. Verify seasonal hours and accessibility claims from current sources where possible. Deliver a daily itinerary with travel times, backup options, source links, and booking notes.

Why this is better: The prompt adds mobility checks and practical outputs so Manus can deliver a realistic island plan.

Before

Check this subscription sheet for duplicate charges.

After

Audit the uploaded subscription spreadsheet for duplicate or overlapping charges. Compare vendor, normalized plan, billing period, currency, amount, and payment reference. Separate exact duplicates, likely overlaps, and rows that need human review. Deliver an annotated file plus a summary of totals, matching logic, and unresolved cases.

Why this is better: The prompt defines matching logic and files so Manus can return a finance ready subscription audit.
