As we integrate AI more deeply into Shark, we’re uncovering invaluable insights about optimising this technology for business value. One key takeaway is the critical role of well-crafted prompts for getting the most out of the AI engine. SharkSense leverages hundreds of built-in benefit calculators that work seamlessly with multiple AI-driven queries to generate robust business cases, including benefits, benchmarks, and rationale, from a single prompt. However, the precision and impact of these outputs rely heavily on the clarity and detail of your initial input.

To simplify this process, we’ve introduced a library of predefined prompts with the launch of SharkSense. These prompts are designed to match typical business cases and adapt to your unique needs, making it easier than ever to build relevant, powerful business cases. Plus, you’ll have the flexibility to create and save custom prompts tailored to your organisation’s requirements, which can be shared with your team for a consistent, streamlined experience. This feature is a substantial improvement over our previous private beta, adding a new layer of efficiency and accessibility.

With a well-constructed prompt, SharkSense can generate an initial business case in as little as 10 minutes, potentially reducing manual effort by up to 80%. This is a transformative shift that allows you to create customer-specific business cases with unmatched speed and accuracy.

Key Details Your SharkSense Prompt should include:

  • Customer Profile: Annual turnover, employee count, industry specifics, etc.
  • Problem Statement: Clearly articulate the main issues or challenges the customer is trying to address
  • Expected Outcomes: Detail the benefits and improvements anticipated from implementing your solution.
  • Strategic Goals: The customer’s broader objectives and long-term vision.
  • Your Company: Briefly outline who you are and your company’s unique positioning.
  • Proposed Solution: The solution that best addresses the customer’s problem and needs
