All the frameworks
we explain.
Each daily prompt is built on one of these proven prompting frameworks. Here's what each one stands for, when it shines, and a quick example to get a feel for it.
RTF — Role · Task · Format
Tell the AI who to act as.
State exactly what you want done.
Specify how the answer should look.
When it works best
Quick, everyday prompts where you want a clean, predictable answer — emails, summaries, lists, simple explanations.
RACE — Role · Action · Context · Expectation
Persona for the AI.
The verb — what to do.
Background, audience, constraints.
What a great answer looks like.
When it works best
Work tasks where context matters — proposals, communications, planning. Great when the same task could go many directions without context.
TAG — Task · Action · Goal
What needs solving.
Steps the AI should take.
The outcome you're after.
When it works best
Goal-focused thinking — planning, problem solving, decision support.
BAB — Before · After · Bridge
The current situation / pain.
The desired situation.
Ask the AI to bridge the gap.
When it works best
Persuasive or transformational writing — sales copy, coaching messages, pitches, change management.
RISEN — Role · Input · Steps · Expectation · Narrowing
Persona for the AI.
Information / data to work from.
Process the AI should follow.
Desired output shape.
Constraints, tone, things to avoid.
When it works best
More complex outputs where you want to control the process — analysis, structured documents, multi-step reasoning.
CARE — Context · Action · Result · Example
Set the scene.
What you want done.
The result you want.
Show what 'good' looks like.
When it works best
When tone or style really matters — brand writing, creative work, anything where an example dramatically improves quality.
APE — Action · Purpose · Expectation
What you want done.
Why you want it.
What success looks like.
When it works best
Quick prompts where stating purpose unlocks better answers — learning, advice, brainstorming.
