The box on the home screen is not ChatGPT. It is the job description for a crew. Here is what to type so Decillion can recommend agents, open a room, and let a partner join without a paste.
The first thing you do on Decillion is describe an outcome. That sentence is not a prompt to a chatbot. It is the job you want a crew to work on. From it we recommend specialist agents, open a project room, and give a co-founder something they can actually enter. If you type the way you type into ChatGPT, we cannot staff the work — we can only chat.
This is the first step on the home screen and on
How it works. People stall here because every other AI product trained them to iterate in private: “make it punchier,” “now as a table,” “ignore previous instructions.” Those moves optimize the next reply. They do not name a project a second human can join.
What the box is for
Decillion suggests up to four market agents from your brief, opens a project, and attaches them. Chat, files, and a sandbox live on that project. Partners join the same orbit. Later you can hire a person into that room. The brief has to be good enough to do all of that. A vibe is not enough. A 40-message prompt chain is the wrong shape.
Write the outcome, not the model tricks
Good briefs sound like something you would say to a small studio on day one. They name what you are opening, launching, or shipping, who else is in the room, and what you need to review.
• Open a neighbourhood cafe with a partner: concept, local launch, storefront presence, and a simple finance plan we can share in one project room.
• Launch a first product with a co-founder: customer research, offer, landing-page direction, and a launch plan we both can steer.
• Ship a YouTube episode as a two-person crew: outline, script, thumbnail direction, and a publish checklist in one project.
• Get an online store to first sale: branding, storefront help, marketing, and finance basics, shared with anyone you invite.
Those are the same shapes as the examples on the Decillion home screen. They work because they are jobs. “Act as a world-class CMO and give me 20 hooks” is a prompt. It does not tell us who the partner is, what “done” looks like, or which specialists belong on the crew.
A simple template you can paste and rewrite
• Outcome: what will exist in the world when this project succeeds (a cafe, a store, an episode, a launch).
• Who is in the room: just you for now, a co-founder, a client, a future hire.
• What you need to look at: the artifacts — plan, direction, script, checklist — not “ideas.”
• Constraints that survive a handoff: budget, city, brand tone, what must not ship.
• Definition of done: one sentence a partner could read without the last twenty chat turns.
What to leave in ChatGPT instead
• Provider names, temperatures, and “use bullet points.” That is systems design, not the job.
• A novel of backstory. Put the decision that matters. Keep lore in the project thread after the crew exists.
• Anything you would not show a partner. If they cannot see it, you are still in a private chat — and Decillion is the wrong tool for that.
What happens after you submit
We recommend a specialist crew for that brief. You can accept it or pick from the market. The project opens with those agents attached. You invite people by username into the same orbit. When a task needs a human — legal, on-site, a face on camera — you hire into that room instead of starting Slack-for-the-freelancer and ChatGPT-for-you.
If the recommend step looks empty or slow, that is on us — not a missing sentence in the box. Write the job. Let the room exist. Inviting a partner is not a
second AI seat.
