awork AI has huge potential to make your project work easier. There are only a few things AI can’t solve, but the list of what’s possible is almost endless.
As a starting point for your work with awork AI, we’ve compiled the most‑used prompts so far.
Happy prompting!
Basic examples for agencies
“Write a project update for my client.”
“Give me an overview of all my projects and tasks.”
“Move all future tasks of this project by 2 weeks.”
“Check if my design team has 30 hours of free capacity next week.”
“Which tasks are urgent for me this week?”
Pro examples for agencies
“Give me a portfolio status of all active client projects this week: progress, deadlines, risks, and recommended actions. Highlight anything at risk.”
“Create a client-ready status email for Client X from the current project: done, in progress, risks, and next steps with dates. Keep it concise and on-brand.”
“Check team capacity for the next 2 weeks and propose assignments for all unassigned or overdue tasks in this project. Respect roles, skills, and holidays.”
“Shift all milestones and dependent tasks by 5 working days starting today. Update deadlines, resolve conflicts, and summarize changes.”
“Draft a 1‑page creative brief for the task ‘Homepage redesign’ using the latest meeting notes and project docs. Include objectives, audience, deliverables, and acceptance criteria.”
“Find tasks likely missing time entries for my team this week and suggest hours based on past patterns. Prepare to log after my confirmation.”
“Batch update this project: add the tag ‘Q4 Campaign’ to all tasks in the ‘Launch’ list, assign owners based on current workload, and set due dates this month.”
“Prepare the sprint plan for the next 2 weeks from the backlog: pick the top 15 by priority, estimate effort, set dependencies, and assign users.”
Proven workflows
Use case: Project summaries and insights
