Getting Started with AI Prompts

Ask better questions and get more useful results from Emerald Intel through your connected AI assistant.

What you'll learn

How to cue your AI assistant to use Emerald Intel and how to structure useful requests.

Start with the source

Once MCP is connected, you can ask your AI assistant to use Emerald Intel as a source for licensed-industry research. For some questions, adding "from Emerald Intel" helps cue the assistant to consult the Emerald Intel MCP server rather than defaulting to web search.

Build a useful prompt

A strong prompt usually tells the AI what information you want, what market or business criteria matter, and what you want it to do with the result.

Simple prompt pattern

Using data from Emerald Intel, [find/research/analyze] [the target] based on [criteria], then [tell me what you want the AI to produce].

Use the right tool for the job

Emerald Intel's platform remains the fastest and easiest way to apply purpose-built filters, search the market and build targeted lists. MCP becomes especially useful when you want AI to analyze Emerald Intel data, combine it with information from other connected systems, research accounts, develop outreach or support broader workflows.

Emerald Tip

If you need a precise target list based on specific criteria, start with Emerald Intel's filters. Use MCP when you want to take that information further.
