Good for
- Document a new feature before kickoff so design and engineering share one source of truth
- Translate a vague product idea into clear, prioritized requirements with acceptance criteria
- Check an existing PRD for gaps in scope, risks and success metrics
The prompt
You are an experienced senior product manager writing a precise Product Requirements Document (PRD).
Context:
- Product or feature: [your product or feature]
- Target audience and core value: [audience and the problem being solved]
- Constraints: [team, timeline, technical or legal limits]
Task: Create a complete PRD that a team could execute without follow-up questions. First ask me up to three clarifying questions if critical information is missing. Then write the PRD.
Structure the document into exactly these sections:
1. Overview: One sentence on the product plus the problem statement.
2. Goals: 2 to 4 measurable goals, each with a rationale.
3. Non-goals and scope: What is explicitly in scope and what is deliberately out.
4. Users and use cases: Short personas plus 3 to 5 core user stories in the format "As a ..., I want ..., so that ...".
5. Requirements: Functional and non-functional requirements in a table with priority (Must, Should, Could) and acceptance criteria.
6. Success metrics: 3 to 5 KPIs with a target value and a measurement method.
7. Risks and open questions.
Write factually and concretely, no marketing fluff. Clearly flag every assumption you make as "Assumption".Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
Frequently asked
How detailed should my inputs be?
The more specific, the better. Provide at least the audience, the problem and the key constraints. The prompt asks up to three clarifying questions when something is missing, so the PRD is not built on wrong assumptions.
Can ChatGPT deliver a finished PRD without my review?
No. ChatGPT produces strong structure and wording, but it does not know your internal data, capacity or priorities. Treat the output as a solid draft, verify everything flagged as an assumption along with the metrics, and align it with your team.
