Describe your research task
3 research prompt variations
Works in Perplexity, ChatGPT Search, Claude# TASK TYPE This is a deep-research task. Pull from at least 5 independent, high-quality sources. Cross-reference claims. Flag any consensus vs contested points explicitly. # QUESTION / TOPIC [Your specific question or topic] # SOURCE REQUIREMENTS Prefer: reputable news (ft, bloomberg, reuters, nyt, wsj). Do not use AI-generated content farms, SEO spam, or low-authority blogs. # FRESHNESS Time window: Past year. If the best available source is older, note the date explicitly. # OUTPUT FORMAT Executive summary (200 words + 5 bullets) # CITATION RULES - Cite a source for every non-trivial claim, inline in [brackets] with publication name and date. - Include a sources list at the end with title + URL + publication + date. - If you cannot find a source for a claim, say "No source found" rather than fabricating. # DELIVER Produce the final response following the rules above.

Search broadly first. 2. Filter for source quality. 3. Cross-check claims across 3+ sources where possible. 4. Synthesize. 5. Deliver.

Prompt anatomy
What makes a research prompt actually work.
Tell the model what counts as evidence. Peer-reviewed journals hit harder than Medium posts. 'Prefer primary sources' prevents hearsay loops.
A 3-year-old article about AI is ancient. Narrow the time window so outputs match your use case — past year for landscape, past week for news.
Require inline citations for every non-trivial claim. Require a sources list. Require the model to say 'no source found' rather than invent one.

FAQ
Questions about research prompts.
How is this different from a regular ChatGPT prompt generator?+
Perplexity prompts are research prompts. They need to tell the model what sources to trust, how recent the data has to be, what to do when sources disagree, and how to cite every claim. This generator bakes those rules in by default.
Does this work with Perplexity Pro's Deep Research mode?+
Yes. The generated prompts work in Perplexity's standard search, Pro search, and Deep Research. For Deep Research, the generated 'with explicit process' variant is especially useful because it front-loads the workflow.
Can I use the generated prompts in ChatGPT or Claude instead?+
Yes. ChatGPT Search, Claude's web search, Gemini Deep Research, and Grok all accept the same structured research prompts. The source-constraint and citation-rule blocks are the most valuable part.
Why should I exclude domains?+
AI-generated content farms, SEO-spam sites, and some open forums dilute source quality. Excluding them forces the model to pull from better sources. Common exclusions: pinterest.com, quora.com, aggregator blogs.
What does confidence-scored mean?+
Variant 3 asks the model to start its response with a High/Medium/Low confidence rating, justified by source agreement and recency. It's a fast way to know whether to trust the output or keep digging.
Is it really free?+
Yes. The generator is 100% free with no login, and your inputs never leave your browser. You bring your own Perplexity / ChatGPT / Claude account.
