1. Copy this prompt
Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Grok (the free versions work), then replace the [highlighted brackets] with your details. Leave out account numbers and SSNs.
I rent a [UNIT TYPE] in [CITY, STATE]. My belongings would cost about $[ESTIMATE] to replace. Here are quotes I received: [PASTE QUOTES WITH LIMITS, DEDUCTIBLES, PRICES]. 1) Compare them in a table: personal property limit, replacement cost or actual cash value, liability, loss of use, deductible and price. 2) Flag gaps or exclusions to ask about (flood, earthquake, high-value items). 3) Recommend which to ask follow-up questions about and why.

Why this works
The problem: Renters often skip coverage or buy the cheapest policy without checking replacement cost or liability limits.
