• Draft an interview guide

  Research

  Act as a senior UX researcher. Write a 45-minute interview guide for [research goal] with [participant type]. Include a warm-up, 8 to 10 open, non-leading questions ordered from broad to specific, suggested follow-up probes, and a closing question. Avoid questions that ask people to predict their future behaviour.

  Replace the goal with a real decision you need to make.

• Turn notes into themes

  Research

  Here are raw notes from [number] user interviews about [topic]:
  
  [paste notes]
  
  Group them into themes. For each theme give a short name, a one-sentence summary, 2 to 3 supporting quotes, and how many participants mentioned it. List anything that contradicts a theme separately.

  Remove names and personal data before pasting.

• Spot leading questions

  Research

  Review these survey or interview questions for bias:
  
  [paste questions]
  
  Flag any that are leading, double-barrelled, loaded, or ask about hypothetical future behaviour. Rewrite each flagged question in a neutral way and explain the change in one sentence.

  Run your own questions through this before every study.

• Plan a usability test

  Research

  Create a usability test plan for [product or prototype]. Include the research questions, 5 realistic task scenarios (without giving away the interface wording), success criteria for each task, the metrics to capture, and how many participants I need and why.

  Then adapt the scenarios to your real users.

AI tools can be wrong, biased or out of date. Verify what they tell you, never paste private or confidential data, and treat research output as a starting point: it does not replace talking to real users.
