AI reply prompt

AI social reply prompt

A strong AI social reply prompt should ask for three editable reply angles: trust-building, conversation-starting, and natural next step. It should include the visible source post, audience, offer, tone boundary, platform, and a manual posting rule. TypeToSell turns this prompt pattern into an in-composer workflow for X, Reddit, and Facebook while keeping the final public post under the user's control.

Copyable prompt

Use this prompt as a starting point

You are helping me write a useful social reply. Use only the visible source post and the context I provide. Create 3 options: (1) trust-building reply with one specific observation, (2) conversation-starting reply with one natural question, and (3) natural next-step reply with a soft CTA only if the source post earns it. Do not invent proof, links, prices, results, testimonials, or platform claims. Keep the reply platform-aware for [X/Reddit/Facebook]. The final output must be editable draft text; I will review and post manually.

Prompt purpose

When this prompt should be used

Use this prompt when you need a general AI social reply workflow that is safer than asking ChatGPT to write a quick comment from thin context. The prompt forces specificity, multiple intent angles, platform fit, and manual approval before anything goes public.

Best for

Where this prompt is strongest

Founders selling through replies

It keeps the reply useful before it becomes promotional, which matters when a founder is answering cold public conversations.

Agencies and operators

It standardizes reply quality without turning every comment into the same pitch template.

Creators and consultants

It helps keep voice and expertise visible while preventing generic AI praise.

Mobile workflows

It can be used in mobile web share/copy first, then converted into Android keyboard or iOS Share Extension rules after validation.

Inputs

What the prompt needs

Source post

Paste only the visible public post, comment, or thread context that the reply should answer.

Your offer

Add the saved product, audience, website, or soft CTA only when the source post makes a next step relevant.

Tone boundary

State whether the reply should be concise, warm, technical, useful-first, skeptical, or founder-like.

Manual review

Tell the model that the user will edit and post manually, and that it must not imply auto-posting.

Usage steps

How to use the prompt safely

Paste the visible context

Start with the exact post or comment so the reply can mention something specific instead of sounding generic.

Ask for three angles

Request a trust-building reply, a conversation-starting reply, and a natural next-step reply so the output is not three rewrites of one idea.

Remove unsupported proof

Delete invented results, fake customer claims, fake links, pricing, testimonials, platform approvals, or statistics that were not provided.

Pick one and edit

Choose the strongest draft, adjust facts and voice, then post manually in the social app or browser composer.

Save what worked

If a prompt consistently creates useful replies, turn the language into a saved TypeToSell Marketing Brain rule.

Platform rules

How the prompt adapts by social surface

X replies

Keep the reply concise, specific, and easy to read. Use a soft CTA only when the post shows problem awareness or buying intent.

Reddit comments

Answer the thread first. Do not lead with a product, profile visit, or link unless the community context clearly asks for it.

Facebook comments

Use warmer language, avoid sounding like a bot, and keep the next step conversational rather than transactional.

Manual posting

The prompt should create editable draft text only, preserve the no-auto-posting boundary, and leave the final Reply, Post, or Comment button to the user.

Mobile surface fit

How this prompt supports the mobile roadmap

Mobile web + share/copy

Best first surface because the prompt can run from pasted or shared context before native app complexity is built.

Android ReplyPilot Keyboard

Best later surface when Android users already copy good drafts and want faster insertion beside native composers.

iOS keyboard + Share Extension

Best after iPhone users prove they need both context handoff and selected draft placement.

Safari iOS and Firefox Android

Useful fallback for people who reply from mobile browser pages rather than native social apps.
