AI Prompt Library
The Custom AI Instructions are used to provide context to help AI extract find the data you need.
Note: When the custom field name is clear and specific, for example Data Protection Clause Present, you do not need to provide additional instructions. Guidance is only necessary if the field name is ambiguous.
For best results, avoid including the field name or phrases like Search for in the instructions; AI Extract is already configured to identify the field, and extra prompts may hinder accurate data extraction. The following table is a collection of possible custom fields, custom field types, and custom AI instructions to help you get started:
