Prompt 1

Quick ask

Prep for your meetings

Prep me for my next three meetings. For each one, tell me what it's about, who's attending, and what I should read or bring. Cite the meeting or email each point came from.

Then click one of the citations to check where it came from.

Prompt 2

Quick ask

Outlook

Open a real email thread and click Summarize at the top. Then click Draft with Copilot and type:

Reply to confirm [what you're agreeing to or the next step]. Keep it short and friendly.

Read it and fix it before you send. Copilot drafts, you decide.

Prompt 3

Quick ask

Your top use case

Open your interview summary, pick use case #1, and paste its "Ask Copilot" prompt.

Didn't do the interview?

Here's a task I do every week: [describe it in two sentences, no confidential details]. How could you help me do it faster? Ask me what you need first. If you don't know something, say so, and tell me what you assumed.

Prompt 4

Quick ask

Ask Copilot to coach you

How should I prompt you to get this right the first time next time? What did you need from me that I didn't give you?

Source: Use only the attached PDF. If something isn't in the document, say "not stated."

Expectations: A short table of price, schedule, exclusions and payment terms, then the three biggest risks.

Cite the page for each point, and flag anything you're unsure about.

Then ask:

What in your answer isn't supported by my sources?
