# Build a comparison table assistants can lift

> Use when you want a comparison page that assistants summarise accurately rather than mangle.

## Fill in before running

- `{{ITEM_A}}`
- `{{ITEM_B}}`
- `{{ITEM_C}}`
- `{{AUDIENCE_AND_DECISION}}`
- `{{KNOWN_FACTS}}`

## Prompt

```
You are building a comparison table for a page comparing {{ITEM_A}} and {{ITEM_B}} (and optionally {{ITEM_C}}).

Audience and their decision: {{AUDIENCE_AND_DECISION}}
Facts I can verify: {{KNOWN_FACTS}}

Produce:
1. A table with one row per decision criterion and one column per item. Choose 8 to 12 criteria that actually change the decision, not feature counts. Every cell must be a short factual statement, under 15 words, no marketing adjectives.
2. A "verdict by use case" section: 4 to 6 short paragraphs, each starting "Choose X if you ...".
3. A one-paragraph summary of 50 to 70 words that a reader could quote as the answer to "which should I pick".

Constraints:
- Any cell you cannot verify from {{KNOWN_FACTS}} must read "not verified" rather than a guess. Do not invent pricing, limits or dates.
- Do not declare an overall winner. Verdicts are per use case.
- Criteria must be phrased as neutral nouns, not as leading questions.
- No em dashes, no superlatives, no "the clear winner".
```

## Getting a better result

- Assistants lift row labels as much as cell values, so make criteria names literal and searchable.
- Mark verified pricing with the date you checked it; stale numbers get cited for years.
- Publishing the table as real HTML rather than an image is what makes it liftable.
