Tell us what the prompt needs to know
Start with the questions below. Each answer personalizes the playbook and builds the prompt you’ll use at the end.
Your situation
List the big items from your current home: couch, bed, dining table, dresser, and any other furniture you plan to bring or debate about.
0/10000
List your partner's big items the same way, including condition and how attached they are to each piece.
0/10000
Describe your new place: bedrooms, square footage, storage, and any layout quirks that affect what fits.
0/10000
Enter your move-in date or lease start date, plus your current lease end date.
Enter your partner's move-in date and their current lease end date.
Enter the total amount you two can spend on new shared items, split decisions, or move costs.
Select how you two plan to split costs for movers, storage, and new purchases.
Note any complications: one of you owns versus rents, temporary storage needed, pets, parking limits, building move-in rules, or one person staying behind temporarily.
0/10000
Describe how you two make decisions together under pressure, or flag if one of you tends to defer.
0/10000
List any items either of you absolutely won't part with, and any items either of you actively want gone.
