Best AI Prompts: 40 Examples That Work in ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini: questions people ask

How were these forty picked out of the whole library?

An editor went through every category and took one prompt per job, favouring the ones readers copy most and the ones that gave the best answer when we ran them. That is why the selection is wide rather than deep: a single resume prompt, a single summariser, a single recipe prompt, instead of six variations on one task.

Do all forty really work in ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini?

Yes, because not one of them depends on a feature only a single model has. They are self-contained blocks that set a role, the rules and the output format, which every chat assistant can follow. Voice and length will differ between them. Where a prompt needs material, such as Long Document Summarizer, attach or paste it in whichever tool you are using.

Where do I find prompts tuned to the one model I actually use?

In the model hubs. The ChatGPT set uses uploads, memory and custom instructions, the Claude set leans on pasted long documents and artifacts, and the Gemini set names the Doc, Sheet, thread or video to bring with you. This page is the cross-model pick, so what you copy here is portable rather than sharpened for one tool.

The list jumps from Microsoft Excel Expert to Wedding Speech Writer. How do I find mine?

There is no reading order here. Every card carries its category, so scan the tags instead of the whole list: the work and money prompts sit near marketing and data, and the household ones, such as Fridge Leftovers Recipe or Trivia Night Host, are tagged to match. Open whichever one fits the job in front of you today.
