Before you begin
Choose one user, one job, and one result. The first version should prove one complete workflow.
Use sample, synthetic, or de-identified information until you are ready to connect production data.
Build the first useful version
You may have noticed that Empromptu AI asks questions before it builds.
Those questions are not a test. They are there to prevent the system from spending time and credits
building the wrong thing.
You can answer in short bullets. You can also say
“Use the simplest option.”
“Make a reasonable assumption.”
“I don’t know yet.”
“Leave that out of the first version.”
The most important answers are
1. Who will use the app?
2. What are they trying to finish?
3. What information will they provide?
4. What should the app return?
5. What would make the result clearly wrong?
Answer those, and the first version becomes much easier to build and evaluate.
Your project is waiting at the question where you stopped.
Common mistakes
Writing long essays when short bullets are enough.
Inventing decisions you have not made rather than saying “use the simplest option.”
Skipping the definition of what would make the result wrong.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know how to code?
No. Describe the user, the job, the input, and the result. Technical users can add architecture details
later, but they are not required for the first workflow.
Should I connect real data immediately?
Not usually. Begin with representative sample, synthetic, or de-identified information, then connect
approved production sources after the workflow and controls are clear.
