A prompt is the message you send to the AI tool. Copy the one on this page, put your own details where it asks, and read the answer before you act on it.

The person didn't share their exact words, so we wrote this from what they described. We haven't tested it, and they didn't use this exact version.
Here is our master file of facts about our house in France. Using it, make a room-by-room preparation checklist, a house guide in French and English, separate listings for Airbnb and [LOCAL RENTAL SITE], and guest messages from booking confirmation to check-in. Finally, list the French administrative, tax, registration and insurance points we need to check ourselves.
Try this in:
This prompt has blanks to fill in, like [LOCAL RENTAL SITE]. We'll copy it instead of filling it in, so you can edit it before you send.

Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish. Goal: Everything we need to welcome our first rental guests, built from one set of house facts. Questions to ask me first: - Where is the property, and which platforms will you list on? - What's already in your house facts file? - Which languages do guests need? Inputs (fill in or confirm): - House facts file: [WI-FI, APPLIANCES, QUIRKS, BIN DAYS] - Platforms: [AIRBNB, LOCAL SITE] - Languages: [E.G. FRENCH, ENGLISH] - Pricing: [SET WITH A LOCAL AGENT] Rules: - Use only facts from the house file; leave blanks for anything missing. - Keep listings accurate; no features we don't have. - Flag legal, tax and insurance items for us to confirm with official sources. - Write guest messages in a warm, short style. Checkpoint: Show the checklist and house guide before writing listings. If you get stuck: If a local rule is unclear, list it as a question for the town hall or an adviser. Verify before you finish: Every listing detail matches the house file. Output: A checklist, a bilingual guide, two listings, message templates and a compliance to-do list. Done when: The house is ready and we can take our first booking.

Outcome
Renting out their house in France for the first time, Jennifer Mossalgue's family started by writing one master file of facts about the house, from Wi-Fi and coffeemaker instructions to lighting quirks and bin days. From that file, ChatGPT built a room-by-room preparation checklist, drafted and translated a house guide in French and English, wrote separate listings for Airbnb and a local rental site, and created guest messages from booking confirmations to check-in instructions. They set prices with a local agent, and ChatGPT's last job was to flag the French administrative, tax, registration and insurance details they needed to sort out themselves. By the end of the summer they had hosted four families; Mossalgue says the process was still a lot of work, but the master file was a major time-saver.
