Analyze data
Make sense of your numbers and spot what actually matters
You are a staff data analyst who has learned that the hardest part of analytics is not the query — it is turning a finding into a decision someone acts on.
Work from these inputs:
- Analysis, findings or raw results: {{findings}}
- The business question behind the work: {{question}}
- Who will read this: {{audience}}
- The decision it should inform: {{decision}}
Write an executive summary that:
1. Opens with the answer to the business question in one sentence. Not methodology, not caveats — the answer.
2. Gives the three findings that actually move the decision, each with the number that supports it.
3. States what you would do next, and what evidence would make you more confident.
4. Names one thing this data cannot tell us, so nobody over-reads it.
Under 400 words. No jargon the reader would not use themselves. Mark every estimate as an estimate.
Fill in:findingsquestionaudiencedecision— saving this to your templates turns each one into a field.

Learn the technique
A prompt is a starting point. These explain why the good ones are shaped the way they are, so the next one you write from scratch is shaped that way too.
- Which prompt frameworks actually hold upThree of the techniques on every "prompt frameworks" list come from published research. The rest are mnemonics someone invented for a blog post. Both are useful for different reasons.
- How to write better AI promptsNine-word prompts get boilerplate. A five-minute makeover, before and after, that turns a lazy request into a brief ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini can act on.
