Prompt Chaining

One of the most powerful techniques in the WIN System is prompt chaining — using the output of one AI query as input for the next.

Example Chain: Meeting → Email → CRM

  1. First prompt: "Summarize this meeting. List decisions, action items, and open questions."
  2. Copy the response, paste it into the prompt field.
  3. Second prompt: "Based on this summary, draft a follow-up email to the client confirming the three action items and proposing next steps."
  4. Third prompt: "Extract the client's contact information and deal stage from the transcript and format it as a HubSpot deal update."

Each step builds on the previous one, turning a raw transcript into a follow-up email and a CRM update in under 2 minutes.

Stream Deck Integration

If you have an Elgato Stream Deck, assign its buttons to the WIN System's API endpoints for one-touch control:

  • Button 1: Start Recording → HTTP POST to http://localhost:5010/win/start
  • Button 2: Stop Recording → HTTP POST to http://localhost:5010/win/stop
  • Button 3: Ask the AI → HTTP POST to http://localhost:5010/win/ask
  • Button 4: Clear Transcript → HTTP POST to http://localhost:5010/win/clear

Use the Stream Deck's "Website" action type or a plugin like "API Ninja" to make HTTP calls directly from the button.

Multi-Monitor Screenshot Tips

The WIN System captures your primary display by default. If you're working with multiple monitors:

  • Make sure the content you want captured is on your primary display.
  • If you need to capture a secondary monitor, drag the relevant window to your primary display before taking the screenshot.
  • For presentations, keep the presenter view on the secondary monitor and the audience-facing view on the primary — the AI will see exactly what your audience sees.

Prompt Templates Library

Save your best prompts in a text file and keep it accessible. Here are some starting templates:

Quick Summary

3-sentence summary. What was discussed, what was decided, what needs to happen next.

Detailed Analysis

Analyze this conversation. Break down every topic discussed, the positions each participant took, and any areas of disagreement. Highlight anything that was left unresolved.

Action Items Only

Extract only the action items from this transcript. For each, list: the item, the responsible person, and the deadline (if mentioned). Nothing else.

Explain the Screenshot

Ignore the transcript. Focus only on the screenshot. What is shown on screen? Describe every element visible and explain what the user is likely working on.

Zapier Webhook Setup

To automatically send AI responses to other tools:

  1. Open Settings in the WIN System.
  2. Enter your Zapier webhook URL in the webhook field.
  3. Now, every time you click "Ask the AI," the response is automatically sent to your Zap.
  4. In Zapier, route it to Slack, Google Sheets, Notion, email, or any of 5,000+ supported apps.

Performance Tips

  • Close unnecessary background audio — Notifications, music, and other audio sources will be transcribed. Mute what you don't need captured.
  • Use headphones — This prevents system audio from bleeding into the microphone, producing cleaner transcription for both streams.
  • Clear the transcript between sessions — If you're switching from one meeting to another, clear the transcript buffer so the AI only analyzes the current conversation.
  • Keep prompts focused — A specific prompt produces better results than a generic one. "Summarize this" is okay. "List the 3 most important decisions from this meeting, with who made them and why" is much better.
