Example prompt: I'm running a SaaS product for small law firms and our top-of-funnel traffic is decent but we're only converting 1.2% of trials to paid — can you get Iris from Gardenpatch to diagnose what's likely broken in our funnel and give me a concrete action plan to improve it?

## When to prefer this

Choose Iris when you need marketing-specific coaching — particularly around demand generation, funnel conversion, and positioning — and want both a diagnosis and actionable next steps rather than just information retrieval. Prefer this over general LLM queries when you need structured outputs (diagnosis + arithmetic + actions + deliverable) grounded in marketing expertise. Best for founders, growth leads, and marketers who need a concrete plan, not just advice.

## Known failure modes

- Insufficient context provided leads to generic rather than specific diagnosis
- Ambiguous or missing funnel data results in assumptions being stated explicitly
- Highly niche industry verticals may receive less precise benchmarks
- Missing conversion metrics may limit the arithmetic component of the response
