Observed format: Single static post: list-style hook ("10 ready-to-run AI agents just dropped"), arrow-bullet feature list, named-firm social proof, "available today" urgency line, then a comment-keyword CTA.

Observed hook: "Anthropic just released 10 ready-to-run AI agents built specifically for financial services. Not demos. Not prototypes. Production-ready agents for the work that eats up most of an analyst's day."

Adaptation: Kept the winning skeleton: "[number] ready-to-use [things]" hook, analyst-grind pain framing, scannable arrow list (â†³), and the comment-keyword CTA. Changed everything else. Source topic (Anthropic's 10 production finance agents, named hedge-fund clients, "available today" urgency) was swapped for an original WSP topic: 7 equity-research AI prompts tied to concrete analyst inputs (10-K diffs, segment revenue, earnings transcripts, comps). Dropped the vendor name-drops and the hype/urgency ("This isn't AI for finance someday"); replaced with an anti-hype honesty slide stating the prompts do not replace your model or your read, plus an explicit educational-only / no buy-sell-hold disclaimer. Reworked the single static into a 9-slide carousel so each prompt earns its own slide. CTA keyword changed from "Agents" to "PROMPTS." No source text, claims, or visuals reused.

Most of an analyst's day is not analysis. It is pulling numbers, reconciling segments, and re-reading the same 10-K footnotes.

So we wrote 7 AI prompts that handle the grind, so the judgment stays with you.

Each one is built around real workflow inputs: a filing, an earnings call transcript, a comps table. Not a chatbot toy.

Here is the set: â†³ 10-K Risk-Factor Diff (this year vs last) â†³ Segment Revenue Extractor â†³ Earnings Call Tone Reader â†³ Comp Table Sanity Check â†³ Footnote Hunter (leases, SBC, one-offs) â†³ Guidance Tracker (said vs delivered) â†³ Margin Bridge Builder

These do not replace your model or your read. They cut the prep time before you even start thinking.

This is educational only. No buy, sell, or hold calls. No targets. Just the workflow.

Comment "PROMPTS" and we will send you the full pack with the exact wording for each one.

Layout

9-slide carousel, 1080x1350 portrait. Slide 1 is the cover (oversized headline, left-aligned, with a small "Swipe â†’" prompt bottom-right). Slide 2 sets up the problem. Slides 3â€“6 are one prompt each: bold number + prompt name at top, two short lines of payoff below, generous whitespace. Slide 7 bundles the remaining three as an arrow list to keep pace tight. Slide 8 is the honest disclaimer slide in muted type. Slide 9 is the CTA slide: large keyword "PROMPTS" centered with a comment-bubble icon.

Design notes

WSP near-black background (#0B0F0D / near-black green-black) with a single accent green (#16C784-style) used only on the slide numbers, the arrow glyphs (â†³), and the keyword "PROMPTS". Montserrat throughout: Bold/ExtraBold for headlines and prompt names, Medium for body, Regular for the disclaimer. Strong left alignment, wide margins, one idea per slide. No gradients, no stock photos, no emojis. Thin green hairline rule under each prompt name. Cover headline can break across 3 lines with the key phrase "BORING HALF" emphasized in green. Keep the disclaimer slide visually quieter (lower-contrast gray text) so it reads as honest, not promotional.

Why this works

The source post won on a simple, high-retention pattern: a numbered list of concrete, ready-to-use things framed against the pain of "the work that eats up most of an analyst's day," capped by a low-friction comment-keyword CTA that farms engagement and builds a DM list. That structure converts because each list item is a self-contained promise, the pain framing is specific to the target viewer, and the keyword CTA gives an easy reason to engage. It fits WSP because our audience is investor-analysts who feel exactly that grind, and a prompt pack is a credible, educational lead magnet that demonstrates value without making any market call. Carousel format suits a 7-item list better than a static, since one prompt per slide maximizes swipe-through and saves.

CTA

Comment-keyword mechanic: "Comment 'PROMPTS' and we will send you the full pack with the exact wording for each one." Mirrors the source's "Comment 'Agents' to get detailed guide" â€” single keyword, DM delivery of a free resource.
