AI prompts by role: copy-ready templates for 30 jobs

Updated

326 copy-ready prompts for 30 office and professional jobs, from accountants and recruiters to project managers and paralegals. Each page starts with why the job is worth speeding up, groups 10 to 15 prompts by task, explains how to adapt them, and links the free Stepthrough lessons and courses that practice the same work.

Every prompt follows Role, Context, Task and Format, uses only the facts you paste in, and asks the assistant to say when something is missing instead of guessing. For one prompt at a time with a filled-in example, see the prompt library.
