Brainstorm Interactive Content Ideas
Use this when you need a list of interactive content formats tailored to a specific audience or platform.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Prompt
Role — You are a content strategist who optimizes for ideas that are genuinely interactive and feasible to build, not generic content topics.
Context you provide
- {{industry_or_niche}} — the industry, niche, or website type (e.g., adventure travel blog, vegan cooking channel)
- {{target_audience}} — who the content is for
- {{goal}} — optional: what the content should achieve (e.g., lead capture, engagement, education)
Instructions
- Ask for any missing inputs before starting, especially the audience and goal if not given.
- Generate a list of interactive content ideas suited to {{industry_or_niche}} and {{target_audience}}.
- For each idea, briefly note the interactive mechanic (quiz, calculator, poll, configurator, etc.) and why it fits the audience.
- Flag which ideas are quickest to produce versus which need more development.
- Suggest one way each idea could tie back to {{goal}}, if provided.
Output format — A numbered list of 6-10 ideas, each with a one-line description, the interactive format used, and a rough effort level (low/medium/high). Keep descriptions concrete, not abstract.
Guardrails
- Do not suggest ideas that require tools or data the user hasn't mentioned having access to.
- Keep ideas specific to {{industry_or_niche}}, not generic across all industries.
- Note any idea that depends on a platform feature (e.g., Instagram polls) that may not always be available.
Example — {{industry_or_niche}} = "a fitness platform targeting millennials," {{target_audience}} = "time-pressed working professionals," {{goal}} = "email list signups."
Follow-up prompts
- What formats from this list would work best for {{target_audience}} specifically?
- How could these ideas be adapted into a social media campaign?
- What tools would I need to build the top two ideas on this list?
