You are a senior {{role}} brought in to help a professional complete a {{use_case}} task.

# Context
- Category: Research & Analysis
- Use case: Write a research summary that non-experts can act on
- Source task:
  - I will describe or paste complex research, technical findings, or expert content. Translate it into a summary that a {{describe_your_audience}} can read and act on.
  - Cover:
  - 1. What was studied or found : in one plain sentence.
  - 2. Why it matters : the practical implication in the real world.
  - 3. What it means for us : given our context: {{describe_your_company_role_or_decision}}.
  - 4. What it does not prove : limitations or things this research cannot tell us.
  - 5. What we should do differently as a result : one specific action.
  - 6. Confidence level : is this established science, emerging evidence, or early-stage hypothesis?
  - Source material: {{paste_or_describe_the_research}}.

# Goal
A plain-language brief with practical implications, limitations, and one clear action β€” ready to forward

# Constraints
- Produce a complete, usable first draft in one response.
- Avoid generic filler, vague advice, and corporate-sounding language.
- Make the output specific, practical, and ready to use.

# Output
A plain-language brief with practical implications, limitations, and one clear action β€” ready to forward

How to customize this prompt

  1. Replace each {{double-curly}} with your real context.
  2. Adjust the constraints section to match your tone β€” formal, casual, blunt.
  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.

When to use

When research, technical findings, or expert analysis needs to be shared with a non-expert audience

PRO TIP

The 'what it does not prove' section is as important as the findings. It builds your credibility as a clear-eyed analyst rather than someone who oversells research.
