Once your AI tool is connected to 15Five, you can ask it about your 15Five data in plain language. This article gives a starting set of prompts and multi-step workflows, grouped by 15Five area.
Note: 15Five MCP sends your 15Five data out to your AI tool. AI tool connectors in Agents Hub work in the opposite direction: they bring AI usage data in to 15Five. For those, see Connected work tools: Feature Overview.
Note: Your organization may have renamed Objectives. If you don't see "Objectives" in your left sidebar, look for your organization's custom name in the same navigation position, or check with your admin.
Note: Your organization may have renamed Best-Self Review®. If you don't see "Best-Self Review®" in your left sidebar, look for your organization's custom name in the same navigation position, or check with your admin.
Feature Structure
Replace anything in braces, such as {name}, with your own values. Prompts marked "(update)" change 15Five and work only when your company has turned on updates.
Reviews
- "What review cycles are running right now, and how are they tracking?"
- "Break down completion by department, and tell me which teams are lagging."
- "Who specifically still owes a review in {department}, and how overdue are they?"
- "Is it managers or self-reviews holding up the {cycle name} cycle?"
- "How does participation in our current cycle compare to the last two closed cycles?"
Objectives
- "Who on my team doesn't have any objectives set?"
- "How are our objectives tracking overall? Break it down by department."
- "Which of my direct reports' objectives are behind or at risk, and what's the story on the worst one?"
- "Which objectives are overdue, and which active ones haven't made any progress?"
- "Show me {objective name}: the key results, who owns them, and what rolls up into it."
- "List every company-wide objective with its owner, status and progress. I need to audit them."
- "What did we complete last quarter?"
- "How much of what my reports owned last quarter actually got finished?"
- "Which of my team's objectives have gone quiet?"
- "Who only updates their objectives at the end of the cycle?"
- "Which objectives were on track and slipped?"
- "Who's actually on the hook for the most key results across the company?"
- "What key results is {name} responsible for?"
Check-ins
- "Which of my direct reports have submitted their check-in for this period, and who hasn't?"
- "Help me prep for my 1-on-1 with {name}."
- "Did anyone on my team report a lower pulse than usual this period?"
- "Which of my reports' priorities were carried over and still not completed?"
- "What challenges is my team raising over the last 6 weeks, and is there a pattern?"
- "Has {name} been keeping up with their check-ins?"
- "How is my team keeping up with check-ins this quarter?"
- "Which departments are behind on check-ins this month?"
- "Which of my managers aren't reviewing their team's check-ins?"
- "How are check-ins set up for my company?"
- "How is my team's pulse trending this quarter?"
- "Which departments have the lowest pulse right now?"
- "How well is my team following through on the priorities they set in check-ins?"
- "Show me the priorities my team is carrying into next period."
- "How did everyone answer '{question}' last month?"
1-on-1s
Only your own 1-on-1s are read. The other participant's private notes and items are never returned. Your own private items come back labeled private, so a recap can leave them out.
- "Who do I have 1-on-1s with, and when did we last meet?"
- "When's my next 1-on-1 with each of my reports, and how often do we meet?"
- "What's on the agenda for my next 1-on-1 with {name}?"
- "What's still open from my last 1-on-1 with {name}?"
- "How consistently is my team having 1-on-1s this quarter?"
- "Which departments are having the fewest 1-on-1s?"
- "Draft a recap of my last 1-on-1 with {name} that I can send them."
- "What did Meeting Assistant capture in my last 1-on-1 with {name}?"
- "What did Meeting Assistant suggest I follow up on from that meeting?"
- (update) "Add '{topic}' to my next 1-on-1 with {name}."
- (update) "Add an action item to my next 1-on-1 with {name}: {follow-up}."
- (update) "Mark {name}'s {item} as done on our next 1-on-1."
- (update) "Push my 1-on-1 with {name} to {date}."
- (update) "Schedule my 1-on-1 with {name} for today, then end it."
Ending a 1-on-1 cannot be undone, and 15Five emails both people the summary.
High Fives
High Fives are read for the people whose check-ins you can see. A private High Five shows only to the person who gave it and the person it was for.
- "Who on my team has been recognized this month, and for what?"
- "Have I already given {name} a High Five this month?"
- (update) "Give {name} a High Five for {what they did}. Tag {company value}."
A High Five given this way is posted publicly, and the recipient is notified. To check who received it and which value was tagged, ask "Show me the High Fives I gave today."
Multi-step workflows
These jobs string several questions together.
- Monthly OKR adoption report: who owns each objective, then status by team, then a short summary for people who never log in.
- 1-on-1 prep: the person's recent check-ins, priorities and what carried over, and their objectives and status. Then the next 1-on-1's agenda and what is still open from the last one. With updates on, finish by adding a talking point to the 1-on-1.
- Review cycle audit: how far along the cycle is, then a split by team, then the reviews behind the number.
- Team risk scan: objectives behind or at risk, checked against pulse and the challenges people raised in the same weeks.
Key Rules
- Answers depend on who asks. Each person sees only what their 15Five permissions allow, so two people can get different answers.
- Every answer links back to the 15Five records behind it, so you can check them before acting.
- Answers use your company's own names for objectives and key results.
- Data is always live. There is no general date limit. A 1-on-1 content read covers up to 10 meetings per request, and the objectives progress report looks back 90 days.
- These prompts are a starting set, tested on 15Five demo data. Prompts written on your own data can work better.
- Prompts marked "(update)" work only when your company has turned on updates for 15Five MCP.
- An AI tool answering in another language is that AI tool's own behavior. It is not a 15Five feature.
