About this skill

What is the Case Study skill?

The Case Study skill is how Moonrank's Writer Agent turns a customer result into proof: extracting the before and after numbers, reconstructing the decision the customer made, and writing the arc so the result is verifiable instead of vague.

It's written as a SKILL.md, a plain-language instruction format that people and AI agents can both follow. Read it to run your own customer interviews, hand it to whoever writes your case studies, or let the Writer Agent draft from your interview notes and data.

Downloading the playbook is free with a Moonrank account. Drafting case studies from real customer data and keeping your proof library current is what the Writer Agent does.

Example

See it in action

You ask

“We have a customer who tripled their signups with us. How do I turn that into a case study sales will actually use?”

Agent does

"Tripled" is a claim; 340 to 1,020 signups a month over 14 weeks is proof. The draft opens with that number in the headline, spends one section on what the old process cost them — 12 hours a week of manual work — and two on the three changes they made. One approved quote, one honest caveat, and a snapshot box sales can screenshot into any deck.

How it works

From input to fix list

  1. 1

    You provide the win

    The customer, the outcome, and the interview notes or data behind it.

  2. 2

    Moonrank extracts the numbers

    The Writer Agent isolates the before-metric, the after-metric, and the timeframe — or flags that the story isn't a case study yet.

  3. 3

    It reconstructs the arc

    What the problem cost, what the customer tried first, and the concrete steps that produced the result.

  4. 4

    It drafts for sign-off

    A results-first draft with every number and quote marked for the customer's written approval.

What's included

Everything it checks

Numbers-first gate

No before/after metrics means no case study — the skill says so and routes you to a testimonial instead.

Result-led headline

Customer plus specific result plus timeframe — never "How X uses Y".

Cost of the problem

What the before-state cost in money, time, or risk, in the customer's words.

Decision reconstruction

What they tried first and why it failed — the section skeptical buyers actually read.

Metrics in context

Baselines, timeframes, and one honest caveat, so the numbers survive scrutiny.

Approval checklist

Every number and quote signed off in writing before anything ships.

Use cases

When to reach for it

  • Turn a customer interview into a publishable case study.
  • Give sales a proof asset for a specific vertical or objection.
  • Rewrite feature-tour case studies into result-led ones.
  • Build a proof library that AI answers can cite by name.
  • Standardize how every customer story gets told and approved.
Questions

Frequently asked questions

It's the Writer methodology Moonrank's Writer Agent follows — written out step by step, so you can read exactly how the work gets done rather than trusting a black box.

A plain-language instruction file that both people and AI agents can follow. Open it in any editor, paste it into Claude or ChatGPT, or drop it into an agent framework that reads skill files.

Yes. Every skill file is free with a Moonrank account — we ask for an email, not a credit card. Running the skill continuously against your site is what the paid product does.

Absolutely. The file is yours to adapt. Hand it to your team as a standard, run it manually, or point your own agent at it. Nothing in it depends on our platform.

The Writer Agent runs this methodology against your site on a schedule, prioritizes what it finds, and ships copy-ready fixes — no manual runs, no downloads to manage.
