  "supportingContext": "The article's methodology centers on six fully filled prompts built around one fictional company, FleetPulse, so readers can run the entire visual workflow in a single session and compare outputs across use cases. Each prompt is paired with a blank template so practitioners can swap in their own company facts, brand hex codes, fonts, and tone notes. The use cases span investor decks, campaign asset packages, clickable UX prototypes, tailored sales proposals, board decks, and design-to-code handoff to Claude Code. The author recommends a 30-minute test drive running the pitch deck and UX prototype prompts before applying them to a real deliverable. Practitioners should treat outputs as first drafts and internal assets rather than production design replacements.",
