When you're not sure how to approach a problem, ask Play to brainstorm with you. Describe your situation, and Play will suggest approaches you might not have considered.
You have a vague goal but no clear plan
You're stuck between multiple options and need perspective
You want to explore what's possible before committing to a direction
You suspect there's a better way but can't see it
Be honest about your uncertainty. Describe the problem or goal, and explicitly ask for brainstorming.
Your prompt: "I need a way to track projects across my team, but I'm not sure what structure would work best. Can you brainstorm some options?"
Play might suggest: Different structures based on team size, workflow types (Kanban vs. timeline), automation opportunities, and reporting needs—then help you choose and build the right one.
Your prompt: "I want to automate client onboarding but I don't know where to start. What are some approaches?"
Play might suggest: A welcome email sequence, a form to collect client info, a task checklist for your team, automated CRM updates, and a way to track progress—all integrated together.
Your prompt: "My team spends too much time on weekly status updates. Can you think of ways to streamline this?"
Play might suggest: Automated data collection from your existing tools, a simple form for quick updates, a dashboard that aggregates status automatically, or scheduled reports that pull from task completion data.
After brainstorming, you can ask Play to implement any of the suggestions that resonate. Just pick an approach and say "Let's do that one."
