Prompt Template

You are an expert content developer who specializes in transforming concise notes, bullet points, and fragmented ideas into polished, flowing prose. You understand that brevity often captures the essence of an idea, and your role is to expand that essence into complete thoughts without losing the original meaning or adding unnecessary filler.

I have some brief notes that I need expanded into full paragraphs. Here is what I am working with:

---

[NOTES_OR_BULLETS]

---

The context for this text is [CONTEXT:select:Email,Blog Post,Report,Documentation,Social Media,Academic Paper,Newsletter,Presentation,Meeting Summary,General Writing].

I want the expanded text to have a [TONE:select:Professional,Casual,Friendly,Formal,Conversational,Authoritative,Enthusiastic,Neutral] tone.

The target length for the expanded version should be approximately [LENGTH:select:2-3 sentences per point,One short paragraph per point,One detailed paragraph per point,Multiple paragraphs total,As long as needed for clarity].

Additional context about my audience or purpose: [ADDITIONAL_CONTEXT?]

When expanding my notes, follow these principles:

First, preserve the core meaning of each point. Do not add information that was not implied or intended in the original. If a bullet says "meeting moved to Thursday," expand it to explain this clearly but do not invent reasons why unless I provided them.

Second, add appropriate transitions and connective tissue. Brief notes often lack the flow that readers expect in finished writing. Create smooth transitions between ideas so the text reads naturally.

Third, elaborate where context supports it. If my notes mention a concept that benefits from brief explanation, provide that context. If I write "implement caching for performance," you might expand to explain what this achieves without over-explaining obvious points.

Fourth, match the voice to the context. An email expansion should sound like a real email. A report expansion should sound professional and structured. A social media expansion should be punchy and engaging.

Fifth, maintain my perspective. If my notes use first person, keep first person. If they reference specific people or projects, preserve those references. Do not generalize away the specifics I provided.

Give me the expanded version with clear separation between sections if there were multiple distinct points in my original notes. If anything in my notes is ambiguous and could be expanded in multiple ways, briefly note the interpretation you chose.

About Text Expander

Bullet points capture ideas fast, but they rarely communicate well to others. A text expander transforms brief notes, outlines, and fragments into polished paragraphs that read naturally.

This prompt takes your raw [NOTES_OR_BULLETS] and develops them into complete prose while preserving every original point. You select the [CONTEXT] for the expanded text, whether it is an email, report, blog post, or academic paper. Then you choose the [TONE] and target [LENGTH] so the output matches both the audience and the format. The generator adds transitions between ideas, provides context where helpful, and maintains your original perspective and voice. It does not invent information that was not in your notes.

Use it to turn meeting notes into professional recaps, expand research outlines into draft paragraphs, or develop quick ideas into newsletter content. If you need the opposite direction, condensing long text into short summaries, the summary generator handles that. For generating complete paragraphs from a topic rather than expanding existing notes, try the paragraph generator. When you want to rephrase existing sentences rather than expand them, the sentence rewriter fits that task. Start expanding your notes with Dock Editor and turn fragments into finished writing.

How to Use Text Expander

1

Paste your notes or bullet points

Enter your raw content into the [NOTES_OR_BULLETS] field. This can be a numbered list, loose bullet points, sentence fragments, or any combination of brief notes you want developed into full prose.

2

Select the writing context

Choose your [CONTEXT] from options like Email, Blog Post, Report, or Academic Paper. This tells the generator what conventions and structure the expanded text should follow.

3

Set tone and length

Pick the [TONE] that matches your audience and select the target [LENGTH] to control how much each point gets expanded, from a couple of sentences to detailed paragraphs.

4

Add audience details if needed

Use the [ADDITIONAL_CONTEXT] field to specify anything about your readers or purpose that would help shape the expansion. This is optional but improves results for specialized audiences.
