Profiles

**Get better answers from Claude — with one button press.**

Claude, the AI assistant by Anthropic, gives you much better results when your questions follow a clear structure. But building that structure every time is tedious and time-consuming.

This free profile gives you **10 ready-to-use prompt templates** based on Anthropic's official prompting best practices. Just press a button, paste it into your Claude chat, fill in the blanks, and get noticeably better responses.

**No technical knowledge required. No setup. No learning curve.**


**WHAT'S INCLUDED**

Each button copies a structured prompt template to your clipboard. Just fill in the parts marked with [ ] brackets:

**Role** — Tell Claude to act as a specific expert (doctor, lawyer, engineer, etc.)
**Context** — Give Claude the background information it needs to help you
**Criteria** — Describe what a great answer looks like so Claude knows your expectations
**Examples** — Show Claude the style or format you want it to follow
**Steps** — Have Claude walk through a problem step by step before answering
**CoT** — Activate deeper chain-of-thought reasoning for complex decisions
**Search** — Ask Claude to research a topic using current web sources
**Format** — Control how Claude structures its response (bullet points, tables, paragraphs, etc.)
**Code** — Request code with specific language, standards, and documentation

**Iterate** — Refine Claude's previous answer by telling it exactly what to keep and what to change


**WHY THIS WORKS**

Claude performs best when prompts are clearly structured. These templates use the XML formatting method that Anthropic recommends in their official documentation. You don't need to understand XML or prompt engineering — the templates handle the structure. You just fill in your own words.


**HOW TO USE**


1 - Select your Claude Chat (claude.ai or the Claude app)
2 - Press any button from the Profile
3 - The template is copied into your Claude chat 
4 - Replace the [ ] sections with your own details
5 - Type your question
6 - Send it and enjoy better results

You don't need every template for every question: 
For simple questions, just **Role** + **Context** is often enough. 
For research, try **Role** + **Search** + **Format**. 
For complex decisions, combine **Role** + **CoT** + **Criteria**. 
Mix and match to fit your needs.

Includes custom icons.

Works with all Stream Deck devices.

Compatible with macOS and Windows.
