Executive summary prompt builder
Executives read the summary, not the report. This builder generates a prompt that produces a disciplined SCQA executive summary — Situation, Complication, Question, Answer — that leads with the recommendation, fits your word budget, and ends with owned next steps. Optionally it adds a key-decision callout that tells the reader exactly what choice is being asked of them.
How it works
You describe the document type, pick an audience level, set a word cap, and flag whether a decision is required. The tool builds a prompt instructing the model to write labeled SCQA sections, lead with the answer, quantify where the source supports it, and append two to four concrete next steps. If a decision is required, it adds a one-line callout naming the decision and options. You paste your real document into the placeholder before running. Everything is generated in your browser.
Tips and notes
- Match the altitude. A board summary should be shorter and more decision-focused than one for cross-functional managers — set the audience accordingly.
- Keep it tight. Lower word caps force the model to prioritize; for senior readers, under 250 words is usually right.
- Give it a conclusion to summarize. SCQA needs an answer in the source. If the document is raw data, draw the conclusion first.
- Edit the answer line. The recommendation is yours to own — verify the model stated it correctly before sending.
