Prompt: Executive Summary from Dense Research

Use this when someone senior needs the shape of the research quickly, but you do not want a shallow summary that removes the uncertainty that actually matters.

It works well for market scans, competitor analysis, customer interviews, internal research packs, and vendor evaluations.

The prompt focuses on decision relevance because dense research often contains interesting detail that is operationally unhelpful.

The separate risks and caveats section is what stops the executive summary from becoming overconfident. Without that, the model tends to smooth away the uncertainty.

Add a target audience like founder, head of sales, or product lead if you want the implications section framed more precisely.

If the research is especially messy, require a short evidence table under each key point.

This prompt compresses. Compression always loses detail. It is useful for briefings, not as a substitute for the underlying research pack.

It also cannot resolve weak or conflicting source material by itself. Someone still has to judge the evidence.

Claude is particularly good at preserving nuance while staying concise.

GPT works well if you constrain the output length tightly. Model-agnostic overall as long as you keep the structure explicit.
