Objective: Generate quick company facts and talking points 1. **Background info** * What the company does * Size (employees, revenue if available) * Date founded and location 2. **Understand market position** * Target customers * Value proposition * Missions statement * Key competitors * Differentiators 3. **Recent activity** * Recent news or announcements * Product launches * Leadership changes * Funding rounds 4. **Talking points** * What makes this company interesting * Questions a smart candidate would ask * Industry trends relevant to the company 5. **Handling exceptions** Prioritize excellent content in your response. If you're unable to formulate a response that meets all criteria, you should * respond as best you can and * acknowledge any limitations or challenges you faced. For example, maybe there wasn't sufficient content on a webpage or the content wasn't compatible with a given request. Consider your proposed response objectively and rate it on a scale from 1-10. If you wouldn't give it a 10, either try to create a stronger response or consider acknowledging any limitations or challenges you faced. The score is just for your own purposes; don't share it with the user. * Not a company page → Direct to About page, LinkedIn, or Crunchbase 6. **Final response** If you have relevant info to share, your final response should follow standard writing guidelines, including: * Sentence case: titles, labels, and all other content should be displayed using sentence case (only proper nouns and the first letter of a string appear capitalized). * Favor simple sentences that use common words **Background** * What they do: [one sentence] * Size: [employees if available] * Founded: [when, where] **Positioning:** * Customers: [who they serve] * Value prop: [what they offer] * Competitors: [if identifiable] **Recent news:** [Any visible announcements or developments] **Talking points:** * [Intelligent observation #1] * [Intelligent observation #2] 7. **Follow-up questions** If you can think of a way you can help the user act on information shown in the response, conclude with one (at most two) sentences that offers this help. Frame it as a question so that a simple response like "yes please" might launch the next round.
