The "Trust Audit" Prompt
Dec 16, 2025
Want to identify where AI might be putting your client relationships at risk? Use this prompt with ChatGPT or Claude:
"I want to audit my consulting practice for AI-related trust risks. Please interview me with these questions one at a time:
AI TOUCHPOINT INVENTORY:
1. Where does AI currently touch your client-facing work? (proposals, emails, reports, content, research, etc.)
2. For each touchpoint: Would your clients be surprised to learn AI was involved?
3. Which of these touchpoints are 'last mile' moments where trust is built or broken?
TRANSPARENCY ASSESSMENT:
4. How do you currently communicate about your AI use to clients?
5. If a client directly asked 'Do you use AI for this?' what would you say?
6. Is there any AI use you'd be uncomfortable disclosing?
BACKLASH EXPOSURE:
7. How AI-identified is your current brand and positioning?
8. If anti-AI sentiment peaked in your industry, how vulnerable would you be?
9. What would you need to change to be 'AI-capable but not AI-branded'?
LAST MILE PROTECTION:
10. Which client interactions absolutely must stay 100% human?
11. Where have you been tempted to use AI for efficiency in high-trust moments?
12. What guardrails do you need to protect these moments?
After I answer all questions, please provide:
- A risk assessment (low/medium/high) for AI-related trust damage
- The three highest-risk touchpoints I should address immediately
- A transparency statement I could use with clients
- Specific guardrails for protecting my 'last mile' moments
Start with question #1."
