Start now with the 5-part prompt formula

While you wait for Book 2, here's the single most useful tool from Catching Up — the framework that improves every conversation you'll ever have with AI.

The Five-Part Prompt Formula

One page. Five elements: Task, Context, Audience, Format, Constraints. The difference between a vague prompt and a precise one is the difference between mediocre output and something you can use immediately. Download the reference card and keep it to hand.

1
Task – what do you want it to do?
Be specific about the action. Not "write something about X" but "write a two-paragraph introduction to X for [audience]."
2
Context – what does it need to know?
Background, relevant history, the current situation. This is the element most people skip – and the one that most frequently determines quality.
3
Audience – who is this for?
A board member, a close colleague, a first-time customer. The language and tone vary enormously depending on the reader.
4
Format – how should it be structured?
Bullet points, flowing paragraphs, a table, a single sentence. If you don't specify, AI will choose – and it may not be the right choice.
5
Constraints – any limits to observe?
Word count, tone, phrases to include or avoid, geographical relevance (UK not US), reading age. You don't always need all five – but the more you include, the better the output.

What's coming

For people who've started – and want to go further

Book 2 picks up where Catching Up left off. Less about getting started, more about building real, sustainable confidence with AI in a professional context.

🏢

Written for the workplace

Practical applications for professional life – not just personal use. Focused on the tasks and decisions that fill your working day.

🧠

From literacy to fluency

You've used AI a few times. Now the question is how to make it genuinely, reliably useful – and know when not to use it.

⚖️

Judgement, not just tools

The harder questions: when to trust output, how to apply your own expertise, and how to use AI in a way you'll feel comfortable defending.

🚀

The same calm, clear voice

No hype, no jargon, no tech enthusiasm. Written for people who want to be genuinely better at their work – not to become AI experts.
