The RAFT Prompting Framework
By David Franco

The RAFT framework assists in crafting structured prompts by specifying the Role, Audience, Format, and Topic.

Acronym Breakdown:

  • Role: Define the persona or role the AI should assume.

  • Audience: Specify who the content is intended for.

  • Format: Indicate the desired format of the output (e.g., essay, list, email).

  • Topic: Clearly state the subject matter or topic.

How to Apply:

Use RAFT when you want the AI to generate content tailored to a specific audience and format.

Example:

"As a professional career advisor (Role), write a formal email (Format) to recent college graduates (Audience) about the importance of networking in their job search (Topic)."
