Run a SWOT that leads to decisions
Most SWOTs are lists nobody acts on. You will write each point with evidence, keep internal (strengths, weaknesses) separate from external (opportunities, threats), and end with three actions — which the checker requires.
You will practise
- Separating internal from external factors
- Backing each point with evidence
- Turning analysis into 3 actions
1Brief
Specific answers make better results — with or without AI.
2Make
Pick a route. The template gives you a structure with
[[blanks]]to fill in yourself. Your own key drafts it for you — then you still check it.See the exact prompt — copy it into any AI chat you already use
3Check
The same rules run on every draft, human or AI. Most first drafts fail something — that is the point.
4Improve
Fix one item at a time, then check again. Notice which fixes made it better — that is the skill.
- Run the check first.
5Ship
Use it for real: send it, post it or save it. Record what happened — that is your evidence of learning.

Questions people ask
What is a SWOT analysis?
A simple framework listing internal Strengths and Weaknesses and external Opportunities and Threats, used to plan decisions.
What is the most common SWOT mistake?
Listing opinions without evidence and never turning the analysis into actions.
Do I need an AI key to use this?
No. The guided template teaches the same skill with no AI at all. If you add your own free key (Groq, Google Gemini, OpenRouter, Mistral or Cerebras), the tool can also draft and revise. The key stays in your browser and requests go straight to that provider.
Where is my work saved?
In this browser only (local storage), until you copy or download it. Nothing you type is sent to Open Practice.
