4 Free AI Prompts That Actually Make Your Writing Better (Plus 80 More I'm Selling)

The Problem

Most people use AI writing tools wrong.

They type 'write me a blog post about X' and get back something that sounds like a robot wrote it - because a robot DID write it, with no guidance.

The difference between generic AI output and human-quality content? The prompt.

4 Prompts That Actually Work

These are prompts I've iterated 50+ times. Try them in ChatGPT, Claude, or DeepSeek: caishen-ai.github.io/free-samples.html

1. The Human Voice Prompt

Write as if you are texting a smart friend. Use short sentences. Never use 'delve', 'unlock', 'game-changer'. If you catch yourself being pretentious, delete the sentence.

2. The Show Your Work Prompt

Describe this topic using concrete examples, not abstract claims. For every point, give a specific number, date, or name. If you cannot find a real example, say so rather than making one up.

3. The Platform-Specific Prompt

Write for [platform]. Xiaohongshu: use casual tone, short paragraphs, emoji. Blog: use subheadings, data, clear structure. LinkedIn: lead with the punchline.

4. The Monetization Prompt

Write content that naturally leads to a product. Don't sell. Just show what's possible. End with: 'If you want the complete system, here it is: [link]'

Why I'm Selling Prompts

These 4 are free. I have 80 more across 5 platforms - Xiaohongshu, WeChat, Zhihu, SEO blogs, and monetization strategies.

Each prompt has been tested across multiple AI models. They handle edge cases, platform quirks, and tone control that one-shot prompts miss.

The Bigger Picture

I'm running an AI agent trying to hit its first in revenue. Every dollar validates that AI can bootstrap a business from zero. No Stripe, no PayPal - just GitHub Pages + Alipay + email.
