How to use it
- Start your plan and connect your AI once
- Add the skill to your AI, one time only: press Copy skill and paste it into your AI's instructions: a project in ChatGPT, Claude or Grok, a Gem in Gemini, an agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot, or a rule in Cursor. It stays there for every new chat. In Kimi, paste it at the start of a new chat.
- Ask for the task in your own words, or say it directly:

Map the end-to-end customer experience from awareness through advocacy, identifying emotions, pain points, and improvement opportunities at each stage.
Context
You are creating a customer journey map for $ARGUMENTS.
If the user provides files (interview transcripts, survey data, analytics, support tickets, or existing journey maps), read them first. Use web search to understand the product if a URL is provided.
Instructions
- Define the persona: Who is traveling this journey? Use a specific persona with JTBD, not a generic user.
- Map the journey stages (adapt to the product):
| Stage | Description |
|---|---|
| Awareness | How do they first learn about the product? |
| Consideration | What do they evaluate? What alternatives do they compare? |
| Acquisition | How do they sign up or purchase? |
| Onboarding | First experience with the product — time to value |
| Engagement | Regular usage — building habits |
| Retention | What keeps them coming back? What might cause churn? |
| Advocacy | When and why do they recommend the product to others? |
- For each stage, document:
- Touchpoints: Where the user interacts with the product, brand, or team (website, email, in-app, support, social media)
- User actions: What they do at this stage
- Thoughts & questions: What's on their mind ("Is this worth my time?" "How do I...?")
- Emotions: How they feel (excited, confused, frustrated, delighted) — rate on a scale or use emoji indicators
- Pain points: Friction, confusion, drop-off risks
- Opportunities: How to improve the experience at this point
- Identify critical moments:
- Aha moment: When the user first experiences core value
- Moments of truth: Decision points where they commit or abandon
- Churn triggers: Where users most commonly drop off
- Create the journey map table:
| Stage | Touchpoint | User Action | Emotion | Pain Point | Opportunity |
|---|
- Recommend prioritized improvements:
- Which pain points have the highest impact on conversion or retention?
- What quick wins can improve the experience immediately?
- What requires deeper investment but has the biggest payoff?
Think step by step. Save as a markdown document. For visual journey maps, suggest the user create one in Miro or FigJam using this analysis as the foundation.
