Most people just type into ChatGPT like it's Google. Claude with a structured system prompt using XML tags behaves like a completely different tool. Example system prompt:
<role>You are a senior equity analyst</role> <task>Analyse this earnings transcript and extract: 1) forward guidance tone 2) margin surprises 3) management deflections</task> <output>Return as structured JSON</output>
Then paste the entire earnings call transcript. You get institutional-grade analysis in 4 seconds that would take an analyst 2 hours. Works on any 10-K, annual report, VC pitch deck. Game over for basic research.
