Dos and Don’ts #
The possibilities of what you can do with your AI-buddy are truly endless! I’m going to talk about the big ones though. Through this guide here you’ll be able to make the most out of what DocXter has to offer.
Extract information #
At its core DocXter is about extracting the details from your documents without having to go through them yourself. You upload a document and DocXter will read every word, remember it, and even understand it.
If you ask –
Locate the section or paragraph discussing [specific topic] in the document.
DocXter will identify the information you are looking for then extract the [specific information] for you to work on.
This is how it comes to play. You’ve got a document with numerous pages, and you need to know a particular detail, you DocXter it, and ask. It’s that simple!
Here’s are a few examples –
Instead of asking “what are the values mentioned“, try asking –
What is the value of [specific data point] mentioned in this document?
Instead of asking “where was [specific keyword or phrase] used in the document?”, try asking –
Extract all mentions of [specific keyword or phrase] from the uploaded document.
Instead of asking “list all the contacts in the document”, try asking –
Find the contact information (email, phone number, address) listed in this uploaded document
Comprehend #
Here’s something you can relate to, you have a document and it is just way too complicated. There’s unfamiliar vocabulary, and overly complex sentences, and at the end of it all it just looks like gibberish. And you end up wondering if you even speak this language.
This is where DocXter comes to save you. Got your doc? Now DocXter it. Simply ask DocXter to simplify it for you. (With a second-grade simplifier you can do this in an instant)
Let’s say you want to simplify a section of your document, ask –
Break down the technical jargon in [specific part] of the document for better understanding.
DocXter identifies the section you are talking about and simplifies it for better understanding.
When you’re trying to simplify the language of a complex document, try working in sections and parts. this way not only will DocXter provide responses with more precision, but you will also have a better understanding of each part of your document.
Instead of asking “Simplify the language in this document“, try asking –
Simplify the language used in [specific section or paragraph] of the document.
or
Rephrase the following sentence using more common vocabulary: [insert complex sentence].
Summarize #
This is DocXter’s best feature. It summarizes your doc. And isn’t that exactly what you need at the end of the day? What’s the point of hundreds of pages of mind-numbing documents? DocXter will keep it short and simple, giving you a concise outline of the entire doc.
When you ask
Summarize the key takeaways from [specific section or chapter] of the document.
You will get your specific section summary of the document.
For more accurate summaries, make sure you specify the section you want to work with.
Instead of asking “Summarize the entire document word-for-word.”, try asking –
Give me a concise summary highlighting the main points of the document.
or
Summarize the document in [X] sentences or [X] words.
You can also specify what form you want your answers in, for example when you ask –
In bullet points, provide a detailed summary of [chapter [X]] in the uplaoded document.
Your answers will be in structured bullet points.
Remember DocXter automatically gives you a summary as soon as you upload anything to it. You don’t actually need to ask it. (better save those credits for a rainy day)
Let’s begin this journey shall we? With me as your guide, you’d master the skill of prompting, transforming into the document superhero you are within.
