AI prompts, organized by use case
A curated library, organized by use case. Copy, fill in the placeholders, ship. Open straight in ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini.
What makes a good prompt
Good prompts aren't magic incantations. They're just specific. The difference between a 30-second answer and a useful one is usually 30 more seconds of input.
1. Role + task + format + constraints
"Write a follow-up email" → "Write a 3-paragraph follow-up to a prospect who didn't reply, opening with the specific demo concern they raised, ending with a clear next step."
2. Show your work
Include the audience, the goal, what's been tried, what you specifically don't want. The model can't read your mind — but it's great at using context you give it.
3. Constrain the output
Length, tone, structure. "Under 80 words." "In markdown with bold for key terms." "No bullet points." Constraints kill the generic LLM voice.
4. Iterate, don't redo
"Same email, but more direct" beats writing a new prompt. The model has the context already — use it.
How to use this library
- 1Browse by category below or search for the job-to-be-done. Each prompt has a use case and a fill-in template.
- 2Use the Copy button to grab the prompt, or Open in ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini to jump to a fresh chat with the prompt pre-filled.
- 3Replace any
{{placeholders}}with your specifics before sending. The placeholders are usually the difference between a generic answer and a useful one. - 4Treat the first response as a draft. Iterate with follow-up turns: "more direct," "cut by 30%," "rewrite for a skeptical CFO." Don't start over.
