I use this prompt to spin up demos for customers at https://www.definite.app/:

    @Web Do some research on https://somecompany.com and write up a detailed overview of what the company does. What might their database schema look like?

    I need you to build a mock database for them in duckdb for a demo

Then:

    Create a uv project and write a python script to add demo data. Use Faker.

    @Web research how many customers they have. Make the database to appropriate scale.

Only takes a few minutes in Cursor, should work just as well in Claude Code. It works really well for the companies core business, but I still need to create one to populate 3rd party sources (e.g. Stripe, Salesforce, Hubspot, etc.).

Cool, I don’t do customer-specific demos, but I like this idea. I might add this use case as an option. Thanks for sharing!
