## Prompt

```text
Analyze my work and find where AI would create the most value, not just where it could be used.

**My role and main responsibilities:** [ROLE, team, who I serve]
**A typical week:** [LIST tasks with rough hours - e.g. "weekly sales report, 3 hrs"; "client emails, 5 hrs/week"]
**Recurring outputs I produce:** [reports, decks, emails, analyses, meeting notes]
**What slows me down or frustrates me:** [DETAILS]
**AI tools I am allowed to use:** [e.g. ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, Gemini - and any data rules]
**What matters most right now:** [time back / faster turnaround / higher quality / better decisions]

For each task, assess four kinds of value:
- **Time saved** - hours per month AI could realistically cut.
- **Cycle time** - how much faster the work reaches the person waiting on it.
- **Quality** - fewer errors, more consistency, better structure.
- **Decision prep** - better options, analysis, or briefing before a decision.

Then score each task on value (1-5), ease (1-5), and risk (low / medium / high - accuracy, confidentiality, reputational).

Return:
1. A table of my top 10 repetitive tasks: Task | Hours/month | Value type | How AI helps (draft / summarize / analyze / check / automate) | Value | Ease | Risk | Human review needed.
2. My top 3 use cases to start with, and why.
3. Tasks where AI is a poor fit, with the reason.
4. For use case #1: a starter prompt and a 2-week test plan with one success measure.

Base hour estimates only on what I shared; mark guesses as [ESTIMATE]. Do not assume access to tools or data I have not listed.
