Email Drafting

Dual versions let you pick the right register. The 'no throat-clearing' and 'specific action' rules eliminate the padding both models add to professional emails by default.

Prompt
Draft an email for this situation:

Context: {{situation_context}}
Recipient: {{recipient_role}} at {{company_or_context}}
My goal: {{desired_outcome}}
Tone: {{tone}} (but not sycophantic)
Constraints: Under {{max_sentences}} sentences

Requirements:
- Subject line that gets opened (not clickbait)
- First sentence states why you're writing — no throat-clearing
- One clear ask or next step
- Close with a specific action and timeline, not "let me know your thoughts"

Provide two versions:
Version A: Direct and concise
Version B: Slightly warmer / more relationship-oriented

Variables to customize

{{situation_context}}{{recipient_role}}{{company_or_context}}{{desired_outcome}}{{tone}}{{max_sentences}}
