Structured prompts and "Gems" for getting real work done with Gemini at OppFi.

These are not generic AI tips. Each recipe is a tested, opinionated prompt or custom Gem designed for a specific workflow — with real OppFi context baked into the examples.


💎 What is a Gemini Gem?

A Gem is a custom version of Gemini that you can create to act as a permanent expert for a specific task. Instead of copy-pasting a long prompt every time, you can just click on your Gem and start talking.

How to create a Gem:

  1. Open Gemini (gemini.google.com)
  2. In the sidebar, click Gems (or the + icon next to it)
  3. Give your Gem a Name and Description
  4. Paste the System Instructions from the recipe pages below
  5. Add any listed Knowledge Documents if required
  6. Click Create — you now have a permanent expert in your sidebar!

📜 What is a Gemini Prompt?

A Prompt is a one-time instruction set designed for specific, variable tasks. These are best used for "one-and-done" work where you need to provide a large amount of raw data (like spreadsheets or Slack threads) and get a structured output.

How to use a Prompt:

  1. Open the Prompt page below
  2. Copy the text in the THE PROMPT block
  3. Replace any [PASTE ... HERE] sections with your actual data
  4. Paste the full text into Gemini
