Suggest edits (track changes) — AI Prompts for Google Docs

The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

I have a draft paper with reviewer comments in the margin. Send the tracked-change version to Maya in marketing and to Sam in legal for sign-off, in that order, and ask Maya to confirm wording by Wednesday so we can file the revised draft next Monday. Check the comments are all resolved before sending.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I send this out for review, make the edits easy to inspect: show every insertion and deletion as tracked changes, collapse resolved comments into a short list, and surface any sentences longer than 40 words so a reviewer can patrol clarity quickly.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

I shared the draft with comments but Maya says she can’t see the tracked changes.

I just shared the draft with tracked edits to Maya and Sam; Maya says she can’t see the changes while Sam can. I’m afraid I missed a step that prevents reviewers from assessing revisions, and I don’t know whether to resend or change settings. What likely went wrong and what’s the fastest, least disruptive fix so reviewers can see every insertion and deletion now?

Become — change the pattern

We keep sending documents and reviewers complain they can’t tell what changed.

Across multiple rounds, reviewers keep telling me they can’t tell what changed between versions and we spend hours on follow-up calls. Where are we losing clarity — in how we prepare the file, how we ask reviewers to read it, or in the tools we use — and what single habit should I change this month to cut review time by at least 30%?

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
