These prompts are for the people who run AI across the organisation: your Kowalah admins and core team. Members can run some of them, but they’ll only see their own opportunities and can’t triage.
Running your own discovery and promoting ideas into your own projects need the Business plan or Kowalah Managed Services. If an option is missing, Kowalah will tell you. Triage (shortlist, park, reject, merge, rescore) is open to admins and core team on every plan.

Review the programme

Steering group prep

Uses the programme-review skill.

A dashboard, deck or one-pager

Uses the programme-views skill. Ask for a board deck, a written update or a chart instead and it shapes the same data to fit.

Progress against the vision

Run your own discovery

A discovery invites a group of people to put forward ideas against a brief, over a set window. You set it up in conversation, then launch it in the Kowalah app, which sends the invitations.

Set one up

Kowalah creates the discovery as a draft and gives you a link to launch it in the app. A discovery needs a goal, a close date and at least one person invited before it can launch. Discoveries Kowalah runs for you are managed by your Kowalah team, so you can’t change them here.

Adjust the audience

Once a discovery is live you can still rename it, change the target number of ideas and move the close date later.

Close it

Triage the backlog

Play back what came in

This lists every opportunity in the organisation, not just the newest, so it works for a workshop playback.

Merge duplicates

Merges work within the same discovery.

Run an ICE scoring session

Shortlist, park and reject

The reason for a rejection is shown to the person who raised it, so write it for them.

Take the shortlist forward

A shortlisted idea can go two ways: into one of your own projects, for your team or a partner to deliver, or to Kowalah, asking us to take it on.

Into your own project

This creates the deliverable straight away, at the planning stage. Kowalah isn’t involved unless you ask.

Ask Kowalah to take it on

This sends it to Kowalah as a request. Your Kowalah team reviews it and accepts it into the project.
Kowalah asks for a reason behind each Impact, Confidence and Ease score before promoting an idea. If any are missing, it helps you fill them in first. To raise something as an Expert Request instead, use the Kowalah app.

Keep the AI estate in order

Shadow AI and renewals

Uses the ai-estate skill.

Add a tool to the register

Ask everyone to share their tools

People then run the my-ai-tools skill themselves and choose what to share.

Verify outcomes

Verification is in your name. If someone later changes a verified figure, it goes back to being a claim.

Weekly programme update on a schedule

Uses the scheduled-tasks skill.
