About this tool
Size a decluttering job by room area and clutter level, split it into sessions, and build an AI prompt around a named tidying method.
The Home Organization Prompt Builder estimates how long a room will actually take to declutter — floor area in square metres multiplied by a minutes-per-square-metre rate and a clutter multiplier — then divides that workload into sessions, calendar weeks and 25-minute Pomodoro blocks. It hands those numbers to an AI along with a named method (Four-Box, KonMari, the 20/20 rule, OHIO or the 12-12-12 challenge) so the plan you get back fits the time you really have. Useful for anyone who stalls because the job feels unbounded.

Area, clutter level and your own rate give a total in minutes, not a vague 'a weekend'.
Workload divides into your real session length and weekly frequency, rounded up.
Each method is described the way its author defines it, including KonMari's fixed category order.
This tool budgets 6 minutes per square metre at normal lived-in clutter, so a 14 m² bedroom is about 84 minutes, rising to roughly 126 minutes at 'very cluttered' and 189 at 'overwhelming'. That is a planning rate you can adjust, not a measured average — storage-dense spaces like garages and lofts need a much higher figure.
You label four boxes Keep, Donate, Relocate and Trash, and every item you pick up goes into exactly one of them before you pick up the next. The rule that makes it work is that nothing is allowed to go back down undecided.
Marie Kondo's order is fixed and by category rather than by room: clothes, then books, then papers, then komono (miscellaneous items), then sentimental items last. The order matters because it trains the keep-or-discard decision on easy items before you reach the ones loaded with memory.
No — buy storage only after the sorting is done, because containers bought early get filled with things you were going to discard. The prompt this tool builds explicitly instructs the model to put the shopping list after the decluttering, not before.
