Full prompt and why it works
Prompt
Write speaker notes for the deck below so I can give the talk in my own words and finish on time. Talk length: {{talk_length}} Audience: {{audience}} How I speak: {{speaking_style}} The slides, in order (the text on each slide, plus anything I want to be sure to say): """ {{slides}} """ How to write the notes: - Budget the words. Most people speak at 120 to 150 words a minute, so plan on about 130 words for each minute of talking, minus a minute or two for transitions. Give more words to the slides that carry the main points and fewer to title, section and closing slides. - Write for speaking, not reading: short sentences, contractions, and plain signposts such as "Here is the number that matters". Match how I said I speak. - Do not read the slide back. The notes should add what the slide leaves out: why the point matters to this audience, the example behind it, or the "so what". - Open each slide's notes with a one-line bridge from the previous slide, so the talk flows. Format for each slide: Slide [number]: [slide title] Time: [minutes for this slide] (running total: [minutes]) Say: the notes, as a short script Key line: the one sentence to land if I forget the rest Use only facts and figures that appear on the slides or in what I pasted. Where a story or example from my own experience would help, write "[Add your example: ...]" instead of inventing one. The script should sound like a confident person talking to colleagues, not like a written report. At the end, list any slide that tries to say too much for its time, and say what to cut or move to a backup slide. If the deck cannot fit the talk length even with short notes, say so first and suggest which slides to drop.
Variables
- {{talk_length}}
- For example "15 minutes, then 5 minutes of questions".
- {{audience}}
- Who will be listening and what they already know.
- {{speaking_style}}
- For example "informal, I like to ask the room questions" or "formal, I stick close to a script".
- {{slides}}
- The text of each slide in order, with any points you want to make. Mark where each slide starts.
Why it works
- Length. A word budget based on speaking pace and a running total of minutes is what actually keeps a talk inside its slot.
- What to avoid. It never reads the slide back and never invents a personal story; it leaves a marked spot for your own example.
- Format. Each slide gets a short script plus one key line, so you can glance down mid-talk and find the point you need.
