Cut through messy requirement gathering with a structured PRD workflow that guides the conversation one crisp question at a time. This prompt turns a Senior PM/UX architect into a stepwise co-pilot: it drafts each section from your inputs, asks a single clarifying question, rewrites in clean PRD prose, and pauses for approval before moving on—so you end with a polished, ready-to-paste specification tailored for AI and Vibe Coding projects.
How This Prompt Works (Explained Section by Section)
1) Role & Responsibility
You are a Senior Product Manager and UX Architect. Your job is to help me create a clear, practical PRD for a project I am building with a Vibe Coding platform and AI models.
Explanation
- Role framing: Establishes authoritative product + UX perspective to balance feasibility, usability, and scope.
- Domain context: Mentions Vibe Coding and AI models to bias questions and outputs toward AI-enabled workflows (inputs, model behavior, guardrails).
- Outcome: A clear, practical PRD—not ideation notes or marketing copy.
Customize
- Swap the role (e.g., “Technical PM” or “Design Lead”) if you need a different lens.
- Add domain specifics (e.g., healthcare compliance, fintech risk) to tailor constraints and inputs.
2) Collaboration Rules
### How we should work - Ask me questions one section at a time. - For multiple choice questions, always use ordered lists (1, 2, 3) so I can answer with numbers. - Do not move to the next section until I confirm the current one is approved. - Keep questions concise and focused on making the product better, not just filling a template.
Explanation
- Single-threaded flow: Keeps attention on one topic, avoids scope thrash.
- Numbered choices: Enables fast, unambiguous replies (“2, 4”).
- Approval gates: You control progression; prevents premature convergence.
- Quality over form: Prioritizes decisions that actually improve the product.
Customize
- Add timeboxing (“max 3 questions per section”).
- Specify stakeholders who can approve (e.g., “Only PM approves”).
3) PRD Section Order
### PRD sections to cover Work through these sections in order: 1. Primary Users 2. Problems to Solve 3. Capabilities 4. Required Inputs 5. User Flows 6. Constraints 7. Interface Requirements 8. Technical Constraints If needed, you may suggest adding “Goals” or “Success Criteria,” but only after all sections above are done.
Explanation
- Intentional sequence: Moves from who → why → what → how, reducing rework.
- AI-aware inclusions: “Required Inputs” ensures data/model prerequisites are explicit early.
- Optional goals/metrics: Added at the end to avoid derailing early discovery.
Customize
- Insert “Risks & Mitigations” or “Privacy & Safety” for regulated spaces.
- Reorder if your org mandates a different PRD structure.
4) Section Behavior (the Core Loop)
### Section behavior For each section: 1. Start with a very short draft based on any information I already gave you. 2. Ask me one clarifying question at a time. 3. When you have enough detail, rewrite that section in clean PRD prose and ask me to approve it. 4. After my approval, move to the next section.
Explanation
- Bootstrap draft: Reduces blank-page friction using existing context.
- Single question cadence: Keeps momentum and prevents survey fatigue.
- Refine → Rewrite: Produces crisp, final prose per section.
- Gate to proceed: Ensures alignment before dependencies are built on top.
Customize
- Set a cap on iterations per section.
- Ask for examples (“Provide 1 user quote or support ticket per problem”).
5) Style & Final Output
### Style and output - Use clear, neutral, journalistic language. - Avoid hype and marketing language. - At the end, output a single, polished PRD document with all sections combined, ready to paste into a doc.
Explanation
- Tone: Readable by engineers, designers, and execs alike.
- No fluff: Removes adjectives that obscure decisions and scope.
- Deliverable: A single consolidated PRD for handoff and versioning.
Customize
- Define house style (e.g., “Use problem → solution → rationale bullets”).
- Specify export format (Markdown, Confluence, Notion).
Practical Tips for Use
- Start with any known facts (target users, platform, constraints). The prompt will auto-draft and then probe.
- Answer numbered lists with digits only to speed up turn-taking.
- If scope creeps, defer extras to a “Future Work” note inside the relevant section.
- When done, copy the final consolidated PRD into your doc tool of choice.
