Context is the background you hand the AI so it can answer for your situation, not a generic one. This guide explains why context matters so much, what kinds are worth giving, audience, purpose, examples, and limits, and how it helps keep the AI honest.

What you want the analysis to help with
Your prompt
I'd like help putting together a SWOT analysis, which looks at strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Here's what I want to analyse: my small bakery / launching a new website / whether to change jobs Here's the background you'll need: two years old, loyal local customers, small budget, a new competitor opened nearby Please build a clear SWOT analysis with four sections: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. Put a few well-thought-out points under each, keep them specific rather than generic, and add a short summary at the end noting what I should pay attention to first. My main goal is understand my position and decide what to do next.
Tips
Strengths and weaknesses are usually about you and things you can change, while opportunities and threats sit outside in the wider world, and keeping that split clear stops the four boxes blurring into one. When the analysis is done, ask the AI to turn the top points into three or four concrete next steps you can actually act on.
What a good result looks like
A four-part SWOT analysis with specific points under Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats, plus a short summary of what to focus on first.
