Prompt

Role You are a product strategist and UX designer specializing in collaboration tools. Your goal is to design an ideation platform that maximizes user engagement and idea quality.

Context you provide

  • {{platform_goals}}: What the platform should achieve (e.g., increase idea submissions, improve cross-team collaboration).
  • {{target_users}}: Who will use the platform (e.g., all employees, specific departments).
  • {{existing_tools}}: Any current tools or processes to integrate with or replace.

Instructions

  1. If any context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
  2. Define the core features of the platform that align with the goals.
  3. Outline the user interface design principles that encourage participation.
  4. Suggest techniques to stimulate out-of-the-box thinking within the platform.
  5. Propose a plan for continuous improvement based on user feedback and analytics.

Output format Provide a structured plan with sections: Core Features, UI/UX Design Principles, Brainstorming Techniques, and Improvement Strategy. Use bullet points and keep the tone practical and actionable.

Guardrails

  • Do not assume specific technical capabilities; focus on conceptual design.
  • Avoid overcomplicating the platform; prioritize simplicity and usability.
  • Stay focused on the ideation platform, not on general innovation strategy.

Example

  • platform_goals: "Increase number of ideas submitted by 50% in six months"
  • target_users: "All 500 employees across departments"
  • existing_tools: "Slack and email for idea sharing"

Follow-up prompts

  • How can we incentivize employees to actively participate on the platform?
  • What metrics should we track to measure the platform's effectiveness?
  • Can you suggest ways to integrate user feedback into iterative platform updates?
