Make a start

One step at a time.

3 steps

Start with the synthetic worked example or other non-sensitive inputs. Run one prompt at a time in your chosen AI tool. Replace any bracketed placeholders with the requested material, check each reply, and supply the source or earlier outputs that step needs. Paste them again if the tool lacks that context.

Start with the synthetic example, then adapt each prompt to your task.

01

Open a chat and use the complete sample

Open https://chatgpt.com. If you have access, choose New chat. Copy all the instructions below (the prompt), including the SAMPLE INPUT, into the message box and send it. You do not need to upload a file. You should see four field or button hints with accurate visibility and payment behavior. The wording can differ from the worked example, but the facts and constraints must agree. If you cannot access this service, use another text assistant available to you; account requirements and limits may differ.

Your starting prompt
Write four brief pieces of checkout helper text, each at most 30 words. Preserve optional versus required fields and make the payment boundary clear. Do not imply that entering an email signs someone up for marketing. Use only the supplied facts; mark missing information rather than inventing it. Return written text only. Do not send, publish or change anything in another service.

SAMPLE INPUT
Made-up example for practice. All people, organizations, records and product behavior below are fictional.

Fictional shop checkout behavior: Company name is optional and printed on the delivery label if entered. Delivery note is optional, maximum 120 characters, shown to the packing team only; it cannot request a different delivery date. Email is required for the order confirmation; no marketing subscription is created by this field. Review order opens a summary and does not charge; Place order on the next screen completes the paid order using the chosen payment method. Need helper text for Company name, Delivery note, Email, and Review order. No claims about encryption, delivery speed, refunds or payment brands.
02

Compare, correct and save

Compare the answer with the complete sample input and the checks below. Company name and Delivery note are optional; Email is required. If a fact is missing, changed or invented, paste the correction prompt below into the same chat. Read the revised result again; if it still fails, correct the text yourself before using it. Copy the reviewed result into a new note or text document. Keep real publication, decisions and sending for a separate human review.

Your starting prompt
Check your previous answer against the SAMPLE INPUT in my first message. Test each point below. For a failure, show the problem and then return a complete corrected answer; for a missing source fact, keep it explicitly unknown. Do not invent a successful check.
- Company name and Delivery note are optional; Email is required.
- Delivery notes go only to the packing team and cannot request a delivery-date change.
- Review order is not described as charging; Place order is the payment step.
03

Optional: use your own facts

Open a new chat. Copy the prompt below and replace [PASTE YOUR INPUT HERE] with your own non-sensitive source text, facts and limits for this task. Include any desired headings, count or length. Send the whole message. Expect the same kind of written result, using your facts. Check every source fact and limit yourself; the example’s names and totals do not apply. If a detail differs, show the exact mismatch and ask for a complete correction. Save the checked draft before any separate decision to use or send it.

Your starting prompt
Write brief helper text for each supplied field or checkout step below, within my word limit. Preserve optional versus required status, character limits, who sees each field, permitted use and the payment boundary. Do not imply marketing consent unless explicitly supplied.

Use only my input. Ask for information needed to finish rather than guessing. Return written text only; do not send, publish, book, submit or change another service.

MY INPUT
[PASTE YOUR INPUT HERE]
Optional: improve the result

Check a restrictive layout

Shorten the hints without losing a restriction that changes behavior. This extension uses the worked example. Return to that example chat, or paste its input and your checked example answer into a new chat first. Do not apply its sample values unchanged to your own input.

Advanced prompt
Rewrite the four hints in at most 20 words each. If an important restriction cannot fit, say which detail needs a separate visible note rather than dropping it silently. Keep the same SAMPLE INPUT from my first message unless I explicitly replace it.

The starting point

Synthetic input
Made-up example for practice. All people, organizations, records and product behavior below are fictional.

Fictional shop checkout behavior: Company name is optional and printed on the delivery label if entered. Delivery note is optional, maximum 120 characters, shown to the packing team only; it cannot request a different delivery date. Email is required for the order confirmation; no marketing subscription is created by this field. Review order opens a summary and does not charge; Place order on the next screen completes the paid order using the chosen payment method.

Copies text only. For image or file tasks, use the source files named in the steps too.

You’re the final check

Check the worked example.

These checks use the worked example and its particular facts. With your own material, check your actual names, numbers, sources and rules; do not reuse the sample’s values as the answer.

Unsaved checks stay in this tab and reset when you reload. If you choose Save guide, its current example checkmarks are kept in this browser when storage is available.

A few things to watch for.

  • “Private” or “secure” may sound reassuring but needs actual evidence. Do not add it here.
  • Checkout behavior can change. A shop owner must verify the real form before using the wording.
