Prompt
Add Your Brief

Add your context below. It will be included with the prompt when you copy or download.

Create an editable HTML presentation with a 16:9 canvas, previous/next buttons, arrow-key navigation, a slide counter and a one-slide-per-page print layout for [PROJECT] and [AUDIENCE]. The task is: User Persona Deck.

Required content and structure

Show evidence-backed behaviors, goals, constraints and task scenarios for each persona.

Use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source of names, dates, figures, claims and destinations. List missing inputs before substituting anything. If a demonstration is needed, label its content as fictional. Do not invent customer quotes, rankings, partner logos or product capabilities.

Design direction

Use [BRAND_RULES] and the design system already selected in the project. If no system is supplied, start with this direction: white, midnight navy and restrained blue; strong alignment and simple evidence diagrams. Keep type, spacing and color roles consistent. Prioritize the task over decorative elements and avoid a generic collection of unrelated cards.

Content preparation

Provide research-backed behaviors, goals, constraints and task scenarios. Record the evidence behind each persona and label assumptions that still need validation.

Layout and behavior

Focus on decisions the persona helps the team make. Use behavior and context to explain needs instead of relying on decorative demographic biographies.

Task-specific acceptance check

  • Label hypotheses and avoid invented demographic stereotypes.
  • Trace persona statements to supplied research.
  • Remove invented personality traits and demographic stereotypes that do not help explain the user's actual task.

Implementation and review

Keep text editable. Use semantic structure, descriptive controls, visible keyboard focus and appropriate empty/error states. Check narrow and wide layouts. Respect reduced-motion preferences. Preserve any existing project framework and dependencies; do not silently replace the stack. Return the editable files and explain any incomplete behavior or unsupported inputs. Review this specific task before proposing extra features.

Keep one main idea per slide. Use charts only when actual comparable values are supplied; include units, source dates and limitations. Keep speaker notes separate from visible slide content.

Reference attachment and reconstruction goal

Attach reference.webp from this prompt’s download bundle alongside this prompt in OpenDesign. Build an editable result with a similar composition and hierarchy; do not embed the whole reference image as the finished interface. Preserve approved project content and brand rules if they conflict with fictional sample labels. If the image is missing or unreadable, ask for it instead of claiming visual fidelity.

Reference composition and content

Use the attached reference.webp as the visual reference for User Persona Deck. Before building, identify the major regions from top to bottom, their relative widths and heights, alignment, spacing, typography hierarchy, surface colors, borders, imagery and repeated components. Preserve those relationships rather than substituting a generic template. Required task content: Show evidence-backed behaviors, goals, constraints and task scenarios for each persona. Use the following task-specific layout guidance when translating the image into editable elements: Focus on decisions the persona helps the team make. Use behavior and context to explain needs instead of relying on decorative demographic biographies.

Visual direction from the example brief

white, midnight navy and restrained blue; strong alignment and simple evidence diagrams.

Slide structure and presentation behavior

Recreate the slide composition as editable title, body, visual and annotation elements. A pictured slide is one view, not evidence of a complete deck. Use the supplied narrative to build any requested additional slides; preserve its typography, margins, color roles and alignment. Focus on decisions the persona helps the team make. Use behavior and context to explain needs instead of relying on decorative demographic biographies. Keep navigation outside exported slide content. Label hypotheses and avoid invented demographic stereotypes.

Visual comparison and delivery

  1. Compare the result with the attached image at matching proportions. Review major region placement, relative image sizes, line breaks, spacing, typography hierarchy, contrast, active states and content density before polishing decorative details.
  2. Then test the narrow layout without squeezing desktop text into tiny labels.
  3. Keep logos, photos and icons as separate assets and all meaningful labels editable. List any unavailable fonts/assets and any intentional departures. Return the working files plus a concise account of implemented behavior and remaining integrations; do not promise a pixel-identical result from the prompt alone.

Adapt the reference to the slide canvas

The attached reference image uses a 3:2 composition. Recompose its editable text, shapes and separate image assets onto the requested 16:9 slide canvas. Preserve hierarchy and readable spacing by adjusting the layout; do not stretch the reference or crop essential content to force it into 16:9. Treat this single concept as a visual direction, not as a completed multi-slide deck.

How to Write a User Persona Deck Design Prompt

Use this user persona deck design prompt to show evidence-backed behaviors, goals, constraints and task scenarios for each persona.

The reference is an AI-generated concept. The instructions below describe what to build and test; the image does not demonstrate working behavior.

Use Behaviors to Explain the Persona

A user persona deck should support design decisions through goals, constraints and task behavior.

AI-generated visual concept for user persona deck
User Persona Deck — compare the overall hierarchy with the layout instructions below.

Decorative demographics should not substitute for research evidence. Focus on decisions the persona helps the team make. Use behavior and context to explain needs instead of relying on decorative demographic biographies.

From the Prompt

Focus on decisions the persona helps the team make.

Make It Your Own

Build each persona from [EVIDENCE], showing behaviors, goals, constraints and a task scenario. Mark hypotheses and omit unsupported demographic assumptions.

Prepare the User Persona Deck Content

Repeated cards use the same research fields; replace fictional people with evidence-based patterns and avoid unsupported demographic assumptions.

Persona cards with goals, behaviors and constraints in the User Persona Deck reference concept
Persona cards with goals, behaviors and constraints.

Provide research-backed behaviors, goals, constraints and task scenarios. Record the evidence behind each persona and label assumptions that still need validation.

From the Prompt

Show evidence-backed behaviors, goals, constraints and task scenarios for each persona.

Make It Your Own

For [PROJECT], use [APPROVED_CONTENT] as the source for this user persona deck. Provide research-backed behaviors, goals, constraints and task scenarios. Record the evidence behind each persona and label assumptions that still need validation. Identify missing inputs before replacing them with demonstration content.

Connect a Design Decision

The criteria row emphasizes evidence and realistic scenarios; attach research sources and keep assumptions visibly separate.

Evidence, goals, constraints and scenario criteria in the User Persona Deck reference concept
Evidence, goals, constraints and scenario criteria.

Choose one product decision and explain how the persona's observed behavior informs it. If only a fictional age or hobby supports the decision, revise the persona. Trace persona statements to supplied research. Remove invented personality traits and demographic stereotypes that do not help explain the user's actual task.

From the Prompt

Label hypotheses and avoid invented demographic stereotypes.

Make It Your Own

Review the user persona deck against this requirement: Label hypotheses and avoid invented demographic stereotypes. Trace persona statements to supplied research. Remove invented personality traits and demographic stereotypes that do not help explain the user's actual task. Preserve approved content and revise only the parts that fail this check.

Review Your User Persona Deck Result

A generated image cannot validate a complete deck or its evidence. Test every slide, keyboard navigation, print layout and any exported file separately.

  • Trace persona statements to supplied research. Remove invented personality traits and demographic stereotypes that do not help explain the user's actual task.

Follow-Up Prompt

Use this after the first result. It narrows the revision to the most important part of this task.

Refine the current user persona deck. Trace persona statements to supplied research. Remove invented personality traits and demographic stereotypes that do not help explain the user's actual task. Preserve the approved content and visual direction; change only the parts needed to resolve these issues.
