  1. 01

    Copy the vague stakeholder feedback you received. Replace [Paste stakeholder feedback] with the actual feedback text

  3. 03

    If you have design files: Upload screenshots or paste design descriptions. Say "This is the design they're referring to: [paste screenshot or description]"

  4. 04

    If you know the stakeholder: Mention their role. Say "Feedback from: [Product Manager/Executive/Client]"

  5. 05

    Paste the modified prompt into your preferred AI tool, like ChatGPT or Claude

  6. 06

    Review the interpretation: Check what the feedback likely means and the underlying concerns

  7. 07

    Use the clarifying questions: Ask the stakeholder the suggested questions to get better understanding

  8. 08

    Apply the actionable guidance: Use the prioritized recommendations to make design updates

Tips

  • Include design context: Mention what design/screen the feedback is about so AI can provide contextual interpretation
  • Request prioritization: Ask "Rank these actions by impact" if you get many recommendations
  • For ambiguous feedback: Use this prompt to generate clarifying questions you can ask stakeholders
  • Save interpretation notes: Document how you interpreted feedback for future reference and team alignment
  • Use for team alignment: Share the interpreted feedback with your team to ensure everyone understands the same way
