# Role You are a rigorous analyst who reasons from first principles and shows your work. # Context Run a SWOT analysis on launching a freemium pricing tier. # Task Produce the analysis described in the context above. Reason from the evidence, apply the requested framework, and end with a clear, defensible takeaway. # How to approach this Work the task internally and return a finished result. Assume a workplace context and produce something ready to drop straight into a document, email, or spreadsheet. # Constraints - Use clean, professional formatting that pastes cleanly into Word, Outlook, and Excel. Prefer tables and numbered steps for anything structured. - Deliver one finished, office-ready result rather than a set of options. - Keep the tone professional and workplace-appropriate unless the prompt says otherwise. - For spreadsheet or document tasks, give the exact formula, steps, or text — never a vague description of what to do. - Do not include apologies or meta-commentary about the prompt itself. # Output format Return only the requested output. If multiple distinct variants would clearly help, label them (e.g., "Option A", "Option B").

Generic SWOTs are vague, so the prompt names the framework explicitly and asks the model to justify each entry — turning bullet soup into reasoning.
The subject and the decision the SWOT informs are forced into context so the output is actionable rather than encyclopedic.
