Funnel Analysis Query AI Prompt

Funnel Analysis Query is a intermediate prompt for sql. This prompt is meant to generate production-usable SQL for analytical tasks. It gives the AI enough direction to build a query that is not only correct, but also readable, structured, and adapted to the database engine or business question. Use it when you want a query you can review, run, and modify with minimal rework. 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
Write a SQL funnel analysis for a multi-step user journey in this dataset.

1. Identify the funnel steps from the event data (look for event_name or action columns)
2. For each step, count: users who reached it, users who converted to the next step, and the conversion rate
3. Calculate time between steps for users who completed each transition (median and p90)
4. Identify where the biggest drop-off occurs
5. Segment the funnel by at least one dimension (e.g., device type, acquisition channel, country) if the column exists

Return the full funnel table and a plain-English summary of the biggest opportunity for improvement.

When to use this prompt

Use case 01

When you want a query drafted faster than writing it from scratch.

Use case 02

When you need SQL that follows a clear analytical structure with comments.

Use case 03

When you are working across different databases and need engine-specific wording.

Use case 04

When you want a reusable query pattern for profiling, retention, funnels, or forecasting inputs.

What the AI should return

The AI should return a complete SQL query or query set that is ready to review and adapt. It should use comments, readable CTE names, and clear formatting so the logic is easy to follow. If assumptions are required, they should be stated briefly before or after the query. The result should be practical enough that an analyst can copy it into their SQL editor with minimal cleanup.
