Starter prompts for government & public sector
Copy a prompt, replace the [BRACKETS], and paste it into the bot your organization allows. Each one tells the bot what not to do, so it is easier to check.
1. Plain-language notice
Rewrite this notice in plain language (Federal Plain Language Guidelines): short sentences, active voice, "you", headings. Keep all dates, amounts and legal requirements exactly.
[NOTICE]2. Comment summary
Summarize these public comments: themes, count of comments per theme, 2 representative quotes per theme with comment IDs. Do not characterize commenters.
[COMMENTS]3. Minutes
Draft meeting minutes: attendance, motions (mover, seconder, vote), decisions, action items. Use only what is in the notes.
[NOTES]Before you paste: remove names, account numbers, dates of birth, addresses and anything else that identifies a real person, unless the tool is approved for that data.
Accuracy and ethics, every time
- Confidentiality: never paste client, patient, student, employee or customer personal data (PII/PHI) into a public bot. Use tools your organization has approved, with contract terms that cover data use, or remove identifiers first.
- Verify everything: bots can invent citations, case law, statistics, doses, code sections and quotes that look real. Check each one against the original source before you rely on it.
- Not professional advice: these tutorials teach you how to use AI tools. They are not legal, medical, tax, financial or engineering advice.
- A human professional is responsible: the licensed or accountable person reviews, decides and signs. The bot drafts; you own the result.
- Prices change: we don't list product prices. Check each vendor's official pricing page.
