How To Prompt AI Teams For Maximum Efficiency

T

Prompting AI is already an art, but when multiple AI models work together, it becomes a whole new challenge. Instead of relying on one AI to do everything, businesses are now building AI teamsā€”where each model has its own specialty, like players on a sports team. But getting these AI teams to work well together isnā€™t as simple as just giving them tasks. It all hinges on how you prompt them. Hereā€™s how to make it work:

Define Clear Roles for Each AI
The first step is making sure each AI knows its job. Think of it like assigning positions on a team: one AI might analyze customer sentiment, while another drafts personalized emails. To avoid overlap or contradictions, be explicit in your prompts about what each AI should focus on. For example, specify whether an AI should look at broad trends or drill down into specific data points. The clearer the role, the less chance of stepping on each otherā€™s toes.

Share Just Enough Context
AI models need context to work effectively, but too much can slow them down. When prompting, include only the essential background information each AI needs to do its job. For instance, if one AI is summarizing market trends, the next AI in the workflow doesnā€™t need the raw dataā€”just the key takeaways. Striking this balance keeps the team aligned without overwhelming individual models.

Design Handoffs That Flow
The real magic happens when AI models build on each otherā€™s work. To make this seamless, structure your prompts so each AI knows what to expect from the others. For example, if one AI is generating insights, prompt the next AI to use those insights as a starting point for its task. This creates a natural flow, like passing a baton in a relay race, and ensures the final output feels cohesive.

Encourage Collaboration, Not Conflict
When multiple AI models analyze the same data, they might come to different conclusions. Instead of leaving it to humans to sort out, design prompts that encourage AIs to compare their findings and resolve inconsistencies. For example, you can prompt one AI to review anotherā€™s output and flag any discrepancies. This built-in collaboration is especially valuable in fields like finance or healthcare, where accuracy is critical.

Test and Iterate
Prompting multi-agent AI systems isnā€™t a one-and-done task. Start small, test how the models interact, and refine your prompts based on the results. Pay attention to where breakdowns happenā€”like redundant outputs or missed handoffsā€”and adjust your prompts to address those gaps. Over time, youā€™ll develop a system that works like a well-coordinated team.

For marketers and business leaders, mastering multi-agent AI prompting opens up new possibilities. Instead of treating AI as a single tool, you can orchestrate a team of models to streamline content creation, automate data analysis, and fine-tune customer interactions. As AIā€™s capabilities get smarter, knowing how to guide them effectively is essential for staying ahead.

The Overview

Victoriaā€™s Secret is using AI to make shopping feel more personal, from smarter email marketing to better product recommendations. With Da Vinci by Movable Ink, the brand is moving beyond generic promotions and sending smarter, more personalised emails that feel less like ads and more like helpful recommendations.

Personalisation isnā€™t just a nice touchā€”it drives higher engagement, better conversions, and stronger customer loyalty. When shoppers feel like a brand understands them, theyā€™re far more likely to return.
