Opportunity Sizing AI Prompt

Opportunity Sizing is a intermediate prompt for business insights. This prompt is designed to turn analysis into decisions. It helps the AI extract the most important findings from the data, explain why they matter, and frame actions in business language rather than technical language. Use it when the audience cares more about implications and next steps than methodology. It is best suited for direct execution against a real dataset. The requested output can include more technical detail, prioritization, and interpretation while still staying practical.

Prompt text
Use this dataset to size the biggest business opportunity available:

1. Identify the metric that has the largest gap between current performance and best-in-class performance (either internal top performer or industry benchmark if known)
2. Calculate the revenue or metric impact of closing 25%, 50%, and 100% of that gap
3. Identify which segment, region, or cohort offers the fastest path to closing the gap
4. Estimate the effort level: is this gap likely due to a process issue (fixable quickly) or a structural issue (requires longer investment)?
5. Write a one-paragraph opportunity statement suitable for an internal business case

When to use this prompt

Use case 01

When you need conclusions and recommendations, not just metrics and tables.

Use case 02

When preparing an update for leadership, product teams, or business stakeholders.

Use case 03

When the main goal is prioritization, decision support, or opportunity sizing.

Use case 04

When you want the AI to translate data into plain-English implications.

What the AI should return

The AI should return concise, prioritized findings written in business language, backed by specific numbers from the data. It should separate observations from recommendations, and make the recommended action feel concrete and accountable. Tables can be included when useful, but the narrative should remain the center of the response. The final result should be something a stakeholder could read quickly and act on.
