Pull the key findings and recommendations out of a report
Lists a report's main findings and recommendations with page references, evidence strength, and which ones matter most for you.
The prompt
Extract the key findings and recommendations from the report below.
Report: [PASTE THE REPORT, or the sections you need]
Who I am and why I'm reading it: [e.g. "operations lead deciding what to fund next year"]
What I care about most: [optional - e.g. cost, customer impact, risk]
Return:
1. Key findings - a table: | # | Finding (one sentence, in plain words) | Evidence the report gives | Strength of evidence (strong / moderate / weak) | Page or section |
2. Recommendations - a table: | # | Recommendation as written | What it would mean in practice | Owner it implies | Cost or effort mentioned | Linked finding # |
3. Top 3 for me - the findings or recommendations most relevant to my role and goal, and why.
4. Recommendations without support - any that are not backed by a finding in the report.
5. Caveats - limitations, sample sizes, date of data, or conflicts of interest the report mentions or that are obvious.
Rules:
- Report what the document says; do not add your own recommendations unless I ask.
- Quote numbers exactly as written and give the page or section so I can check them.
- If the report is vague on something (no owner, no timeline, no cost), say so rather than filling it in.
Highlighted [brackets] are blanks to replace with your own details.
