Ask for what you actually need, then question what comes back. These prompts help clarify requests and check AI answers before you rely on them.
4 prompts
I want AI to help with this, but I'm not sure how to ask: {rough idea} (e.g., "help me get more people to my brewery on weeknights" for Slot-T Beer Co., a brewpub in Liberty Hill, TX). Rewrite my request as a clear prompt that says who it's for, what I want, the format, the length and the tone. Ask me up to 3 questions first if anything important is missing.
Your last answer wasn't right because {what's wrong: too long, too generic, wrong tone, missed the point} (e.g., too generic (e.g., a Facebook post for Round Rock Donuts that never mentioned Round Rock or the 1926 history)). Keep what worked, fix what didn't, and give me a new version. Then tell me in one line what I could add to my prompt next time to get it right the first time.
Help me write a short 'about my business' note (e.g., for Comanche Trail Veterinary Center, a veterinarian in Liberty Hill, TX) I can paste at the start of any AI chat. Ask me about: what I sell, who my customers are, where I operate, my prices, my tone of voice, and words I never want used. Then give me the finished note in under 150 words.
Review the answer you just gave me before I use it for {purpose} (e.g., a website service page (e.g., for Firehouse Animal Health Center, a vet in Leander, TX)). List: any facts, numbers or claims I should double-check, anything you guessed or assumed, anything that could embarrass my business or break a rule, and what's missing. Be blunt.
