How It Works
- Navigate to your project’s Prompts tab
- Click Suggest Prompts
- Describe the topic you’d like to explore (e.g., “sustainable packaging for e-commerce businesses”)
- Add an optional description for more context
- Define the target audience for the prompts
- Select a country and language
- Click Generate
Prompt generation runs in the background. You’ll see a progress indicator while prompts are being created — you can navigate away and come back later.
Reviewing Suggestions
Once generated, suggested prompts appear in your prompts list with a Suggestion badge. For each prompt, you can:- Accept — moves the prompt to Active status and includes it in future data collection runs
- Decline — marks the prompt as Declined and removes it from the active view
What Happens After Accepting
When you accept a suggested prompt:- It becomes Active and is included in future data collection runs
- A keyword is automatically extracted from the prompt text
- The prompt counts toward your project’s prompt limit and credit calculations
When to Use Suggested Prompts
| Scenario | Example |
|---|---|
| Expanding into a new topic area | ”AI-powered customer service chatbots” |
| Discovering questions you hadn’t considered | ”What concerns do enterprise buyers have about cloud migration?” |
| Building coverage for a product launch | ”Electric vehicle fleet management for logistics companies” |
| Filling gaps in your prompt library | ”Data privacy regulations in healthcare” |
Tips
- Be specific with your topic description — “CRM for financial advisors” generates better prompts than just “CRM”
- Include your target audience to get prompts that match real buyer questions
- Review all suggestions before accepting — remove any that are too niche or off-topic for your needs
- Use Suggested Prompts alongside other methods: Quick Start for broad coverage, Suggested Prompts for deep dives into specific areas
- Don’t worry about duplicates — Surfacd automatically detects and skips prompts that already exist in your project
