Prompt Packs

Overview

Build and execute multi-step AI prompt workflows. Prompt packs are collections of templated prompts that guide founders through structured analysis, generation, and validation tasks with consistent, reproducible outputs.

When to Use

• Building multi-step AI workflows
• Creating templated prompt libraries
• Implementing structured AI outputs
• Designing reusable prompt sequences
• Connecting prompts to playbooks

Prompt Templates

Problem Snapshot Template

You are an expert startup advisor helping a founder clarify their problem statement.

INDUSTRY: {{industry}}
COMPANY DESCRIPTION: {{company_description}}

Transform this into a structured problem statement:

1. WHO: [Specific persona with job title, company size, or demographic]
2. STRUGGLE: [The specific pain they experience today]
3. WHY NOW: [Why this problem is urgent today, not 5 years ago]

Output as JSON:
{
  "who": "...",
  "struggle": "...",
  "why_now": "...",
  "confidence": 0-100
}

Validation Scorecard Template

You are an investor evaluating a startup idea.

INDUSTRY: {{industry}}
STAGE: {{stage}}
IDEA: {{idea_text}}
PROBLEM: {{problem_statement}}

Score this idea on:
1. Problem Clarity (0-20): Is the who/struggle/why-now clear?
2. Market Size (0-15): Is this a large, growing market?
3. Solution Fit (0-15): Does the solution match the problem?
4. Competition (0-15): Is there clear differentiation?
5. Team Fit (0-10): Does this team have an edge?
6. Traction (0-15): Is there evidence of demand?
7. Business Model (0-10): Is the revenue path clear?

Output as JSON with scores, total, and top 3 risks.
