The Prompt

Turn my notes into a professional email.

Recipient: [NAME AND ROLE — e.g., client, opposing counsel, judge's clerk, partner]
Relationship: [e.g., long-term client, first contact, adversarial, colleague]
Tone: [e.g., formal, firm but professional, warm and reassuring, neutral]
Goal: [WHAT I WANT THE RECIPIENT TO DO AFTER READING THIS]

My notes:
[PASTE YOUR BULLET POINTS, VOICE-TO-TEXT NOTES, OR ROUGH THOUGHTS]

Requirements:
- Professional greeting and sign-off appropriate for the relationship
- Clear subject line
- One main point per paragraph
- Any action items or deadlines in bold or clearly called out
- Keep it under [NUMBER] paragraphs

Example Output

A ready-to-send email with subject line, professional formatting, clear action items, and appropriate tone for the recipient.

Tips

  • Include the relationship context — an email to a long-term client reads differently than one to opposing counsel.
  • Paste raw voice-to-text transcription directly — Claude handles messy input well.
  • Specify the word count or paragraph limit to prevent Claude from over-writing.
