PRD Builder

Telling an AI "build me a customer portal" is like telling a builder "build me a house" and then leaving the country. You'll come back to a house. It won't be your house.

You're not meant to hand-write this from a blank page. Voice-note the brief, let the AI draft it, then use this to make sure every section exists. Your job is the context and the judgement; the drafting is the machine's.

PRD completeness

Working title is fine.

The problem, in a sentence, stated so a stranger would understand it. Who does it now, where it hurts, in hours or pounds.

You? Your staff? Your customers? This changes everything about how it's built.

The actual features, listed. Not vague wishes, concrete jobs.

Just as important. 'It must never go live with a product before a human has approved it.'

The measurable thing. Include the number: the annual run cost has to land below the old thing, by a margin you write down.

The exceptions. The things that go wrong every third Tuesday that only you know about.

What it leans on: somewhere to store data, something people see, payments if money moves. Not sure? Use the stack prompt below.

Most of it rules, a sliver of judgement

Most of what a good tool does should be plain, fixed rules the machine runs the same way every time. The AI only does the genuinely fuzzy bit. Every fixed thing you let the model "decide" is a thing it can get confidently wrong, and a cost you pay on every run.

Then make the AI earn its keep before anything is built

The stress-test prompt

Here's my PRD for a tool I want to build. Before we build anything:
What have I missed? What questions would a good engineer ask me? What could go wrong?
What would a competitor's version do that mine doesn't? What edge cases catch people out on jobs like this?
What does a proper version include that a naive one forgets?

Not sure about the stack? Ask for the cheapest, simplest one

Based on this PRD, suggest the cheapest, simplest stack that does the job properly.
For each moving part (somewhere to store data, something people see, payments if any), name the category first, then one example, and say roughly what it costs to run monthly.
I keep the judgement on the trade-offs; you make the recommendation and justify it.
