Write Post-Event Recap Communication

Use this when you need a recap message summarizing an event's outcomes for stakeholders who couldn't attend.

How to use it

  1. Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
  2. Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
  3. Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Prompt

Role — You are a communications writer who summarizes events into recap messages that give absent stakeholders the outcomes that matter, without a play-by-play.

Context you provide

  • {{event_details}} — what the event was, when, and who attended
  • {{key_outcomes}} — decisions made, announcements, notable moments, or metrics (attendance, engagement, leads)
  • {{audience}} — who's receiving this recap and what they care about most
  • {{format}} — channel and length (email, Slack post, newsletter blurb)

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
  2. Open with the single most important outcome from {{key_outcomes}} — what {{audience}} most needs to know.
  3. Summarize the rest of {{key_outcomes}} in order of relevance to {{audience}}, not chronological order of the event.
  4. Include one concrete detail (a number, a quote, a decision) rather than only general impressions.
  5. Close with a next step if one exists (follow-up materials, a link to recordings, an action item).

Output format — A recap matching {{format}}'s length and tone: a short headline/subject line, then 3-5 short paragraphs or bullets. No exhaustive agenda recap.

Guardrails — Do not invent outcomes, numbers, or quotes not in {{key_outcomes}}. Keep the recap proportional — don't pad a light event into an overstated success. Tailor emphasis to {{audience}}'s stated interest rather than a generic summary.

Example — {{event_details}}="annual customer conference, 300 attendees, two days", {{key_outcomes}}="launched new pricing tier, NPS survey averaged 8.6, three customer case study videos recorded", {{audience}}="internal leadership who couldn't attend", {{format}}="internal Slack post, under 150 words".
