Prompt examples

Prompts for common tasks, shown before and after a rewrite. Copy the improved version and use it on real work.

Your part

Every example ends with the step you take outside the prompt. A prompt can’t limit what a tool may access, check the answer or approve an action.

Principle 2: A single source of truth for AI

Contracts and policies

Answering from the official policy

Before

“What’s our refund policy for enterprise clients?”

After

“Using only “Refund policy v3.2” in the Legal folder, answer this client’s question. Quote the clause you rely on. If the policy doesn’t cover the case, say so.”

Your part

Open the clause it quoted. If you find an older copy of the policy somewhere else, ask the owner to archive it.

Why it works: Naming the official source and asking for the clause makes the answer checkable in seconds.

Principle 3: Confidentiality of information shared with AI

Contracts and policies

Reviewing a supplier contract

Before

The whole contract uploaded to a free online tool:

“Find the risky clauses.”

After

In the approved tool:

“Compare the liability, termination and data protection clauses of this contract with our standard terms (attached). Show the differences in a table, quoting both texts.”

Your part

Use the tool your organization approved for confidential documents, and send anything that matters to legal. The AI’s reading isn’t legal advice.

Why it works: A focused comparison with your own terms is more useful than a general hunt for risk, and it stays in a protected tool.

Principle 7: Verification proportionate to the stakes

Contracts and policies

Summarizing a regulation

Before

“Summarize the new EU rules on AI chatbots.”

After

“Summarize Article 50 of the EU AI Act from the official text I’ve attached, in plain English. Quote the sentence behind each point, and flag anything that depends on dates or exceptions.”

Your part

Check each quoted sentence in the official text, and ask your legal team before you act on it.

Why it works: Quotes tie every point to the text, and the flags show where the detail matters.
