UX Audit Checklist

Tying each finding to Nielsen's heuristics gives credibility in stakeholder presentations. The impact-to-effort prioritization makes the audit immediately actionable instead of an overwhelming list.

Prompt
Conduct a UX audit of {{product_name}} focusing on the {{flow_name}} flow. Platform: {{platform}}.

Current flow steps:
{{flow_steps}}

User persona: {{user_persona}}
Key user goal: {{user_goal}}

Evaluate each step against:
1. **Usability heuristics** (Nielsen's 10) — flag specific violations
2. **Cognitive load** — identify steps that require too much mental effort
3. **Error prevention and recovery** — how does the flow handle mistakes?
4. **Accessibility** — WCAG {{wcag_level}} compliance issues
5. **Mobile experience** — touch targets, thumb zones, responsive behavior
6. **Copy and microcopy** — clarity, tone consistency, action-oriented labels

For each issue found:
- Severity (critical / major / minor / cosmetic)
- Screenshot location (describe which screen/element)
- Specific recommendation with reasoning
- Effort estimate (quick fix / medium / major redesign)

Prioritize findings by impact-to-effort ratio.

YouTube Video Script

B-roll markers and chapter markers save hours in post-production. Including a voice sample ensures the script matches your natural cadence instead of sounding AI-generated.

Podcast Episode Outline

Bullet points instead of a full script preserve natural conversation energy. The emotional arc structure keeps listeners engaged instead of front-loading all the value.

Thumbnail & Title Ideas

Studying competitor titles and past performance gives the AI real context. Ranking by risk level helps you A/B test strategically rather than guessing.

Content Repurposing Plan

The instruction to make each piece feel platform-native prevents the lazy copy-paste repurposing that audiences can spot instantly. Platform-specific hooks respect each algorithm's preferences.
