Prompt Builder

Describe the job, pick a format, and get a prompt that gives ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Copilot what it needs to do good work the first time.

1. Describe the job

Never paste confidential data into a consumer AI tool your organization has not approved.

2. Shape the answer

Your prompt

You are an experienced executive communications coach.

Output format: Clear prose paragraphs. Tone: professional.

Before you answer, ask me up to 3 clarifying questions if anything important is missing. If nothing is missing, proceed.
If you are not confident about something, say so instead of guessing.

Runs in your browser. A draft is saved on this device only.

How to get the most from it

  1. Be specific about the task. “Summarize this” is weak. “Summarize this thread into decisions, open questions, and who owns each next step” is strong.
  2. Give it real context. Who the audience is, what they already know, and what a good result looks like. Paste the source material into the Input box.
  3. Pick a format you can use immediately. A table, an email, or numbered steps beats prose you have to reshape.
  4. Turn on clarifying questions when the task is fuzzy. The model will ask before it guesses.
  5. Iterate. Reply with what to change. Your second prompt is usually the one that works.

Frequently asked questions

What makes this prompt builder different from just typing a question?
It forces the five things that most improve results: a role for the AI, a clear task, context, the output format, and constraints. It also adds optional instructions like asking clarifying questions first, which prevents the model from guessing.
Does it work with ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot?
Yes. The output is plain language with no tool-specific syntax. The Open in ChatGPT and Open in Claude buttons pre-fill a new chat; for Gemini or Copilot, copy and paste.
Is my input stored anywhere?
No. The builder runs entirely in your browser. A draft is saved to your own device so you do not lose work if you refresh; nothing is sent to our servers.
How should I use the placeholders?
Anything you leave in square brackets, like [PASTE THE DOCUMENT], is a reminder to add your own material before sending. Replace them in the chat window or paste your content into the Input box here.
