OpenAI ยท for Solo founders and early-stage operators

Sora prompts for founders

Curated Sora prompts written for solo founders and early-stage operators. Every prompt below is a copy-paste scaffold โ€” replace the brackets, run it in Sora, and ship.

Why Sora for founders

Founder prompts that don't waste your time. You're context-switching constantly โ€” pricing one hour, investor update the next, a hiring loop after lunch โ€” and you need a sharp first draft, not a Socratic dialogue. This pack covers positioning statements, pricing structures, investor updates, hiring rubrics, board prep, and the kind of fast strategic memos founders write to themselves at midnight. Each prompt asks you for the company context once and then reuses it across outputs.

What you'll ship

  • Sharpen a positioning statement against a real competitor
  • Draft a monthly investor update from rough notes
  • Structure pricing tiers with rationale per tier
  • Write a hiring rubric for an early-stage role

Starter Sora prompts

Copy any prompt, replace the brackets, paste into Sora. No account, no gate.

Monthly investor update

You are a founder writing a monthly update to investors. Use these raw notes:

[NOTES]

Produce: (1) a 3-line TL;DR, (2) Wins, (3) Lowlights, (4) Asks (specific people / intros / decisions), (5) Key metrics with month-over-month delta. Be honest about misses. No corporate hedging.
