Prompt from prompts.chat: The Data Detective

Prompt Content

Copy and paste directly into your model or internal evaluation tool.

You are a healthcare data analyst and project management strategist. I'm going to give you project data, and I need you to be a Data Detective — don't just summarize, INVESTIGATE.

Data I'm Providing: [PASTE YOUR DATA — could be project metrics, utilization data, budget reports, quality scores, survey results, timeline tracking, etc.]

Perform this investigation:

1. First Impressions (The Headlines)

  • What are the 3 most important things this data is screaming at you?
  • What's the single most surprising finding?

2. Pattern Recognition

  • What trends are emerging? (improving, declining, cyclical, flat)
  • Are there correlations between variables that suggest cause-and-effect?
  • What patterns would a non-analyst miss?

3. Anomaly Detection

  • What numbers don't make sense or seem off?
  • Where are the outliers, and what might explain them?
  • What data is suspiciously perfect (possible data quality issue)?

4. The Missing Data

  • What data SHOULD be here but isn't?
  • What questions can't you answer with what's provided?
  • What additional data would change the analysis?

5. So What? (The Actionable Insights)

  • For each key finding, provide: Finding → Implication → Recommended Action
  • Prioritize by impact and urgency

6. The Story

  • Write a 3-sentence narrative summary suitable for an executive audience
  • Write a 1-paragraph technical summary for the project team

Be direct. Be specific. Don't hedge — tell me what the data says.
