Start with a real task.

Three prompts to help you explore beyond a chat window.

All use cases
01RESEARCH

Turn documents into a decision brief

Keep the facts, surface disagreements and make the unknowns visible.

Candidates from official positioning, not test results.

Preview prompt

Using only the documents I provide, write a one-page decision brief. Include: 1) the decision to make, 2) three supported findings with document and section references, 3) disagreements between sources, 4) missing information, and 5) next steps. Do not invent facts. If the documents do not support an answer, say so. Ask me to provide the documents before starting.

02WRITING

Write a reply that respects the brief

Test tone, context and hard constraints in a task you can verify.

Candidates from official positioning, not test results.

Preview prompt

I will provide an email thread and available times. Draft a reply under 120 words, warm but direct. Offer exactly two available times, include the timezone, and do not promise anything outside the thread. Do not send it. First ask for the email thread, availability and preferred timezone.

03FACT CHECKING

Check the sources behind an answer

Separate a supported claim from an assumption before acting on it.

Candidates from official positioning, not test results.

Preview prompt

I will provide a claim to verify. Find primary sources, link directly to the supporting page, and give the publication date when available. Separate verified facts, conflicting evidence and your inference. If a source cannot be accessed, say so. Do not use a search snippet as proof. First ask for the claim and the relevant date range.

LESS HYPE. MORE EVIDENCE.
