Decision Matrix Builder
I need to make a decision between: [options]
I need to make a decision between: [options]. Criteria that matter: [list criteria]. Build a weighted decision matrix: (1) Assign weights to each criterion (total = 100%). (2) Score each option on each criterion (1-10). (3) Calculate weighted scores. (4) Show the matrix as a formatted table. (5) Surface hidden trade-offs the matrix doesn't capture. (6) Devil's advocate: argue for the option that scored lowest. (7) Recommendation with confidence level.
How to use it
- 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.
- 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.
- Not sure what it produces? Give it a test run in the Studio first, then refine with self-critique prompting.
