AI Prompts

Copy-ready prompts for UX work. Fill in the [brackets], then check what you get back.

  • Rewrite an error message

    UX writing
    Rewrite this error message so it is clear, calm and helpful:
    
    [paste message]
    
    It should say what happened, why if known, and exactly what the user can do next, in under 25 words. Give me three versions with different tones: neutral, friendly, and very brief.

    Never blame the user.

  • Tighten button and label text

    UX writing
    Here are the buttons and labels on a [screen]:
    
    [paste list]
    
    Make each one a clear, specific action that starts with a verb, keeps to 1 to 3 words where possible, and avoids jargon. Point out any that are ambiguous or inconsistent.

    Check the result against how your users really speak.

  • Plain-language rewrite

    UX writing
    Rewrite this text at a reading age of about 12 without losing accuracy:
    
    [paste text]
    
    Use short sentences and common words. Keep every legal or safety-critical detail. List anything you removed or simplified so I can check it.

    Always have a subject expert confirm accuracy.

  • Write onboarding copy

    UX writing
    Write the copy for a 3-step onboarding for [product] aimed at [audience]. For each step give a headline under 6 words, one supporting sentence, and a button label. Focus on what the user gains, not on features.

    Test the headlines with a few 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AI tools can be wrong, biased or out of date.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.
