pm-devrel
Write a conference talk proposal / CFP submission for a tech or developer conference. Use when asked to submit to a CFP, propose a talk, or write a session abstract. Produces a compelling title, abstract, audience takeaways, an outline, and the speaker pitch — tuned to what selection committees actually look for.
What to give it
▸The topic & core message — what the talk is about and the one thing people leave with.
▸Target audience & level — who it's for (beginners, senior backend, SREs…) and assumed knowledge.
▸The story / evidence — the real experience, project, data, or failure behind it.
▸Format & length — talk type and duration (lightning / 30 / 45 min, workshop).
▸Speaker background (optional) — (optional) — relevant experience, for the bio/pitch.
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓The title makes a specific promise; the abstract hooks then says what's covered
✓Takeaways are concrete and action-oriented, not a list of topics
✓Audience and level are explicit, and the content matches them
✓The outline shows a real arc with timings that fit the slot
✓The private pitch answers "why this / why now / why you"
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not write a vague abstract that could describe any talk — be specific about the payoff
Do not list topics as "takeaways" — say what the attendee will be able to do
Do not oversell a talk you can't deliver in the time — match scope to the slot
Do not ignore audience level — a mismatched talk gets rejected or bombs
Do not forget the committee's view — give them the private "why this matters now" pitch
