A day in the life of a Product Designer: what changes with these prompts.
Track progress as a memberPriya, a product designer at a clinic scheduling software company
Priya is a product designer at a company that makes scheduling software for clinics. On Wednesday morning she has six interview transcripts from last week's sessions with front-desk staff, and a design review at four.
She opens Claude and pastes the transcripts in one at a time, using the interview synthesis prompt: pull out the moments where people got stuck, with a short quote for each. In twenty minutes she has a page of themes, and she spots one she had missed, about double-booking on shared tablets.
After lunch she uses the wireframe ideation prompt in ChatGPT to sketch three ways to lay out the day view, then the prototype copy prompt to write the empty states and the message for a cancelled appointment. She picks the strongest direction and notes why.
Before the review she runs the engineer collaboration prompt in Gemini to turn her chosen layout into handoff notes and a short list of acceptance criteria. The review ends early because the questions were already answered. She uses the hour she gets back to walk through the prototype with a nurse who uses the tool every day, which is the part of the job she likes most.
