# Prompts to try

> Example questions for the Ask bar on Home, on a meeting, and on a contact, and what to do when an answer misses.

The Ask bar answers from your meetings, contacts, emails, and tasks. These prompts are starting points you can copy and adjust. They work in the Ask bar at the bottom of the screen and on the **Ask Continuum** page.

## How Continuum knows what you are asking about

On a meeting page, a contact's page, or a household page, the Ask bar shows a chip such as **Asking about: Portfolio review with Linda Morrison**. Your questions then apply to that meeting, contact, or household, so you do not need to name them.

On **Home**, **Meetings**, and **People**, there is no chip. Name the client, meeting, or time period in your question, for example "What did I discuss with the Morrisons last month?".

## Prompts for your day

Use these on **Home** or on the **Ask Continuum** page.

* "What meetings do I have today, and what should I prepare for each?"
* "Which clients have I met with this week?"
* "What follow-ups are still open from my recent meetings?"
* "What topics came up most across my meetings this month?"

## Prompts about one meeting

Open the meeting first, and check that the chip names it.

* "Give me a short prep summary for my next meeting with this client."
* "What are the next steps from this meeting?"
* "Summarise the decisions made in this meeting."
* "Make this summary shorter."
* "Rewrite the key points as a bulleted list."

Continuum can change the summary for you. Ask it to fix a name's spelling, correct a date or an amount, or reassign a speaker, and it shows what it changed. See [Edit your meeting notes by chatting with the AI](/ask-ai/ai-ask-bar#edit-your-meeting-notes-by-chatting-with-the-ai).

## Prompts about one contact

Open the contact from **People** first, and check that the chip names them.

* "What are this client's main goals?"
* "What concerns has this client raised recently?"
* "What topics keep coming up with this client?"
* "Summarise my last three meetings with this client."
* "What should I review before I speak with this client again?"

## When an answer misses

| What you see | Try |
| - | - |
| The answer is too long | “Give me only the three most important points.” |
| The answer is too vague | “Be more specific, and name the meeting you are drawing from.” |
| You want a different format | “Turn this into a checklist.” |
| It answered about the wrong meeting or client | Open the right meeting or contact, check the chip, and ask again. |
| It says it cannot find something | Name the client and the time period, for example “in my meetings with Ravi Shah since June”. |
