Aria works best when the prompt gives it enough context to act. This page is a pattern library — prompts that consistently return high-signal results, organized by what you’re trying to do. All prompts work on every tier (Free included). Some specific responses are tier-gated (playlist matching, etc.) — Aria will say so.Documentation Index

The core pattern
Most great Aria prompts share three parts:- Verb — what you want done (“plan,” “find,” “draft,” “summarize”).
- Subject — what / who / which track (“this track,” “Mira’s catalog,” “the new release”).
- Constraint — how / when / for whom (“for dreampop curators,” “by next Friday,” “under $100”).

Pattern: hand Aria a problem, not a question
Less effective: “What should I do?” More effective: “My release is in 3 weeks, I have a $50 budget, my last release got 8k streams. What’s the highest-impact thing to do this week?” The more constraints you supply, the more concrete the answer.Pattern: use Aria for triage, not strategy
Aria is fast at synthesizing data into a shortlist. Strategy decisions are still yours. Good Aria task: “Of these 25 playlist matches, which 3 are highest priority?” Less-good Aria task: “Should I sign with [label]?”Pattern: paste, don’t paraphrase
If a curator emailed you, paste the email and ask for a draft reply. Don’t summarize — Aria sees nuance you might miss. If a contract has a clause you want analyzed, paste the clause. Don’t describe it.What Aria won’t do
- Make decisions for you. Aria recommends; you choose.
- Send a message without your approval. Aria drafts; you send.
- Submit to Spotify editorial. No public API for that.
- Move money. Aria can summarize earnings; payouts go through Stripe directly.
- Train on your data. Hard rule.
