Step 1
Record the current label on every product template and buy button, the variant states those labels cover, the placement of the control, the confusion reported by shoppers, and the view-to-addition counts for the affected pages.

Improve the wording of the add-to-cart action
Buy-action labels differ across pages and some shoppers report not knowing what the button does, especially on unavailable or pre-order variants. In this case, the immediate task is to improve the wording of the add-to-cart action. The workflow should return wording options with the reasoning, tested against the page and funnel records.

ai-prompt.txt
Act as a Shopify operations specialist.
Help me improve the wording of the add-to-cart action.
My store context is [describe the business, products and target audience].
My scope is [specify the affected products, pages, customers or reporting period]. Use these inputs: [the current label on every product template and buy button, the variant states those labels cover, the control placement, the confusion reported by shoppers, and the view-to-addition counts for the affected pages]. Rewrite each label so it names the action and its result in the shopper's words, give one label per sellable state so unavailable variants carry a notify option and pre-order variants name the later fulfilment, and keep that label identical across templates so the same state never reads two ways.
Return the wording options with the reasoning, tested against the supplied page and funnel records for the specified task.
Show the relevant evidence or before-and-after examples and explain how I can verify the result.
If essential data is missing, ask for it and mark unsupported conclusions as unknown.
Do not invent metrics, product claims or customer facts.
For any publication, message, account or store change, use only connected tools within my explicitly authorized scope and report success only after verification; otherwise provide the draft or proposed steps.How to solve

Step 3
Deliver the wording options with the reasoning for each and the state it covers, then verify them by checking every label against the variant states the catalogue actually exposes and confirming that no state is left with the default add wording.
FAQ
Common questions when running this scenario
Cover decision rules, frequent misunderstandings, and required inputs so the team aligns on prerequisites before execution.
Should one label serve every variant state?
No, because an unavailable variant shown with a standard add label invites a tap that cannot succeed, so each state carries its own wording and the pre-order state says the item ships later. The label set is checked against the states the catalogue actually exposes so none is missed.
How is a wording change judged to have worked?
By the view-to-addition rate on the affected pages and by the reported confusion disappearing over a window long enough to cover the traffic pattern in the supplied records. A change measured over a short window can read as a win when it is only a shift in traffic mix.
Where should the label sit relative to the control?
Immediately on the control and nowhere else in the buy area, because a second prompt with different wording nearby competes with it for attention. Supporting details such as shipping or returns belong beside the price, where they inform the decision without reading as an action.
