  • Role-Based
Write dashboard requirements for a [audience: executives/ops team/data team] dashboard tracking [business area]. For each metric: (1) Definition (exactly how it's calculated). (2) Data source and refresh frequency. (3) Visualization type and why. (4) Target/benchmark/alert thresholds. (5) Drill-down dimensions. (6) Who owns it. Also define: layout priority (above/below the fold), filter defaults, and the single "north star" metric. Anticipate: 3 ways this dashboard will be misread and how to prevent it.

How to use it

  1. Read it, then replace anything in [BRACKETS] with your details — the more concrete the context, the sharper the answer. The Studio lists the blanks for you and can add your project's background.
  2. Copy it (or download the .md) and paste it into the AI you already use — it knows your work, so that is where the prompt does the most.
  3. Not sure what it produces? Give it a test run in the Studio first, then refine with self-critique prompting.
