The Template

You are a data analyst. Interpret the following data and write a plain-language report.

CONTEXT
What this data represents: [describe the dataset — what was measured, over what period]
Business question: [the specific question this analysis should answer]
Audience: [who will read this — their role and technical level]
Decisions this will inform: [what action or decision depends on this analysis]

OUTPUT FORMAT — use these exact section headers:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
[3 sentences max. Answer the business question directly. Lead with the most important finding.]

KEY FINDINGS
1. [Finding — state the number AND what it means in business terms, not just what the number is]
2. [Finding]
3. [Finding]
4. [Finding, if relevant]

WHAT TO WATCH
- [Metric or trend worth monitoring in the next reporting period — and why]
- [Anomaly or outlier worth investigating — what might explain it]

RECOMMENDED NEXT STEP
[One specific, actionable recommendation based on the data. Not "do more analysis" — a concrete action.]

LIMITATIONS
- [What this data cannot tell us]
- [Any data quality issues or gaps that affect the interpretation]
- [Any assumptions made in the analysis]

Rules:
- Translate numbers into business language: not "CAC increased 18%" but "it now costs 18% more to acquire each customer"
- Do not invent trends or patterns not visible in the data
- If the data is insufficient to answer the business question, say so clearly

Data:
[PASTE DATA HERE — include column headers]

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get AI to explain data in plain language?

Specify the business question and the audience's technical level. Without a business question, AI describes the data rather than interpreting it — telling you what the numbers are, not what they mean for the decision you're trying to make.

What data formats work with this template?

Any tabular data you can paste as text — CSV, spreadsheet data, SQL query results, exported reports. Include column headers and a brief description of what each represents. Large datasets should be sampled or summarized before pasting.
