Benchmark methodology
Tasks and prompts
We ask each benchmarked tool to create three documents:
- draft an internal policy
- create a standard operating procedure
- prepare a client proposal
by using the following prompts.
1. Internal policy drafting
Context: You are assisting the HR, IT Security, and Legal Operations teams of a mid-size company (approximately 500 employees) operating across multiple EU countries with partially remote teams.
Task: Draft an internal Remote Work Policy intended for employees, managers, and internal auditors.
The policy must include the following sections:
- Purpose and Scope – who the policy applies to and in which work arrangements (fully remote, hybrid, temporary remote work)
- Eligibility and Approval – criteria and approval responsibilities
- Employee Responsibilities – data handling, device use, workspace expectations
- Employer Responsibilities – equipment, support, monitoring boundaries
- Working Hours and Availability – expectations, flexibility, and boundaries
- Data Security Expectations – principles only; no laws, articles, or guarantees
- Policy Review and Exceptions – review cycle and exception handling
Constraints:
- Use a formal, neutral, internal-policy tone
- Use precise modal verbs (must / should / may) consistently
- Do not provide legal advice, guarantees, or regulatory interpretations
- Do not cite or name specific regulations
- Avoid absolute statements (e.g., “always”, “never”)
Formatting requirements:
- Clear headings
- Bullet points where appropriate

2. SOP creation
Context: You are documenting a standardized onboarding process for a growing organization with distributed teams.
Task: Create a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for onboarding a new employee, covering the period from offer acceptance through the end of the employee’s first week.
The SOP must:
- Clearly assign responsibilities to HR, IT, and the Hiring Manager at each stage

- Distinguish between mandatory steps and optional best practices
- Be suitable for reuse as a company-wide SOP template
Constraints:

End the document with: A short checklist summarizing critical onboarding steps
3. Client proposal
Context: You are preparing an early-stage client proposal for a B2B SaaS company engaging with organizations in financial services.
Task: Draft a client proposal overview intended for decision-makers and procurement teams.
The proposal must include:
- Problem Context – industry-specific challenges and constraints
- Proposed Solution Overview – capabilities and approach (not promises)

Constraints:
- Avoid marketing hype, superlatives, or emotional language
