Headline Lab

20 angles, ranked — not 20 variations of one idea.

The Prompt

Generate 20 headlines for this piece:
[paste text or describe]

Use at least 6 DIFFERENT psychological angles (curiosity gap, specific number, contrarian, how-to, mistake-avoidance, identity). No clickbait that the content can't pay off. Rank your top 3 and explain the tradeoff of each.

How to use it

→ Paste the prompt into your model of choice — it works with any frontier model.
→ Replace every bracketed placeholder with your specifics. Concrete inputs beat vague ones every time.
→ If the model asks a clarifying question, answer it — these prompts are designed to invite that.
→ Iterate on the output, not the prompt. The structure is already tuned.
