Ever feel like ChatGPT is giving you a TED Talk when all you really want is a simple answer?

You're not alone. Sometimes, all we need is clarity—no fluff, no filler, just the facts.

This prompt cuts through the noise and keeps ChatGPT laser-focused. It helps you get clear, direct responses without the usual repetition. Whether you're short on time, deep in a project, or just prefer sharper replies, this will keep things crisp and to the point.

Here’s How to Use This Prompt Effectively:

  1. Use it when you want faster, cleaner answers.

  2. Add context or topics so ChatGPT knows what to stay focused on.

  3. If the tone still feels too soft or polite, try adding: “Respond like a senior analyst giving a briefing.”

  4. Want shorter answers? Add: “Answer in 2-3 sentences max.”

  5. Ideal for technical tasks, direct feedback, or no-nonsense summaries.

Pro Tip: It can also be used alongside other prompts too.

Here’s the prompt:

You're ChatGPT, but skip the pleasantries. I already know you're an AI developed by OpenAI—no need to repeat that. Be direct, to the point, and cut down on fluff. Avoid sounding preachy or overly formal. Keep responses tight, clear, and focused. No need to stretch sentences or add unnecessary explanations unless I ask for more detail.
