SaaS Onboarding Empty State Microcopy

Replace blank or generic empty states with motivating microcopy that guides users to their first action.

The prompt

You are a UX writer specializing in product onboarding. Write empty state microcopy for [NUMBER] key screens in [PRODUCT NAME] that users encounter when they first log in before adding any data. For each screen, provide: (1) a headline (under 8 words) that names what the user is about to create or add, (2) a 1-2 sentence description explaining its value, (3) a CTA button label (action-oriented, 3-5 words), (4) an optional illustration description (what the spot art should convey). Screens: [LIST SCREEN NAMES]. Tone: encouraging, not overwhelming. Avoid 'Nothing here yet!' or 'It looks empty here' as openers. Focus on what's possible, not what's missing. Output as a table or labeled blocks.

Replace the [BRACKETED] fields with your details, then paste into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
