Exec Summary

Rewrite any document as a 3-bullet executive summary for a time-poor VP or executive. Use when the user needs to distill a long document, PRD, report, or analysis into something a senior leader can absorb in 30 seconds.

Ask the user to paste the document or content to summarize.

Then produce:

Executive Summary

In 30 seconds:

[1–2 sentence TL;DR — the most important thing the reader needs to know]

The 3 things that matter:

  1. [Most important point — frames the situation or decision]
  2. [Key evidence or implication — what makes this significant]
  3. [What's needed — a decision, approval, action, or awareness]

Decision required: [Yes / No / FYI only] If yes: [State the specific decision and the deadline]


Full summary (for a 2-minute read):

[3–4 short paragraphs. Each one advances a single point. No preamble, no "in this document we will…". Start with the most important thing.

Lead: the situation or recommendation Supporting: why, evidence, or context Risk: what could go wrong or what's uncertain Ask: what you need from the reader]


Rules:

  • No passive voice
  • No hedging language ("it seems like", "we believe that", "potentially")
  • If the original document is vague, say so rather than fabricating precision
  • Cut everything that is background the exec already knows

Ask: "Want a version formatted for a Slack message or email?"
