Prompts & Hacks is where the real productivity unlock happens. The difference between a casual user and a power user isn't paying for Plus — it's knowing how to talk to the model. This category collects the highest-leverage prompts, prompt frameworks, and lesser-known features that turn ChatGPT into a 10x personal assistant.
We organize prompts by job-to-be-done: writing, research, coding, marketing, sales, learning, and personal productivity. Each post includes the full copy-paste prompt, an explanation of why it works, and example outputs you can compare against your own results.
You'll also find advanced techniques most users never discover: chain-of-thought prompting, role-and-persona stacking, structured-output prompting (JSON, tables, schemas), reverse prompting (let ChatGPT write the prompt), few-shot examples, and the underrated power of Custom Instructions and Memory.
For frameworks that scale — like the CARE framework, the RTF (Role/Task/Format) pattern, and our own Mega-Prompt formula — see the foundational guides. Once you've mastered prompting, head to Make Money with ChatGPT to turn skill into income.
