ChatGPT prompts for finance
Rippling's strategic finance team leverages ChatGPT to speed up research and decision-making. This doc will help you get started so you can do the same.
#1 Benchmarking smarter
Benchmarking is key to improving processes and setting realistic expectations for new initiatives. With ChatGPT, you can quickly surface peer benchmarks that would otherwise take hours of research. The prompts in the document help you establish spend baselines and identify where your company may be over- or under-investing.
#2 Drafting policies rapidly
Policies help control company spend, but drafting them from scratch can be a time sink. With ChatGPT, you can upload an existing policy or start from scratch to identify loopholes, set clearer approval chains, and create practical limits for your team.
#3 Competitive deep dives
Rippling’s finance team often relies on ChatGPT’s “Deep research” feature to quickly get up to speed on competitors. It’s especially useful for pulling together structured competitive analysis and financial comparisons without spending hours trawling through filings and reports.
