A shopper faces several similar products and cannot understand the meaningful differences. In this case, the immediate task is to guide product selection through relevant questions.

ai-prompt.txt
Act as a Shopify operations specialist.
Help me guide product selection through relevant questions.
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: [provide candidate products, verified attributes, intended use and buyer priorities].

Compare the same attributes across options, identify missing information and recommend a decision path based on priorities.
Return a comparison table and guided selection explanation 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

A recommended resolution workflow

Split the work into input, judgment, and deliverable phases. Verify each step's output before moving to the next.

01

Step 1

Start with candidate products, verified attributes, intended use and buyer priorities.

02

Step 2

Compare the same attributes across options, identify missing information and recommend a decision path based on priorities.

03

Step 3

Deliver a comparison table and guided selection explanation; verify the result against the supplied records and identify unresolved inputs.

FAQ

Common questions when running this scenario

Cover decision rules, frequent misunderstandings, and required inputs so the team aligns on prerequisites before execution.

Why compare the same attributes for every option?

Uneven comparisons can exaggerate one product's strengths while hiding relevant differences.

Can a recommendation be definite when key preferences are unknown?

It should be conditional or ask for clarification rather than pretending there is one universal best choice.

What information is needed to investigate this use case?

Start with candidate products, verified attributes, intended use and buyer priorities. These inputs establish the relevant scope and help separate an actual issue from missing information or an unsuitable comparison. Without them, the result should remain a proposed approach rather than a confirmed diagnosis.
