Prompt Creation & Editing

Be Specific with Titles: Use clear, descriptive titles for your prompts and prompt steps. This makes them easier to find and understand later.
Utilize Prompt Chains for Complexity: For multi-turn conversations or complex instructions, break down your overall goal into smaller, logical steps within a prompt chain.
Leverage Template Variables {{FieldName}}: If you find yourself writing similar prompts with only minor changes, use template variables. This makes your prompts highly reusable.
- Example: Instead of Write an email to John about our new product, create a template with Write an email to {{CustomerName}} about {{Product}}.
Use the Preview Pane: Constantly check the Preview Pane in the editor to see how your variables are being substituted and how the final prompt text will look.
Optimize with AI: Don’t forget the ✨ “Optimize for LLM” button! It can help refine your wording for better AI responses.

Folders are Your Friends: Create a folder structure in your Library that makes sense for your workflow (e.g., by project, by AI model, by task type).
Use Tags: Add relevant tags to your prompts (e.g., “marketing,” “code-generation,” “summary”). You can filter by these in your Library.
Consistent Naming: Develop a consistent naming convention for your prompts and folders.
Clean Up Regularly: Delete or archive prompts you no longer need to keep your library manageable.

Don’t Reinvent the Wheel: Always check the Templates section before starting from scratch. You might find a perfect starting point.
Customize Templates: When you “Open in Editor” from a template, it creates a copy in your library. Feel free to heavily modify it to suit your needs.
Study Template Structure: Even if a template doesn’t match your exact needs, study how it’s structured - especially complex prompt chains.

Keyboard Shortcuts: Save your work quickly in the editor using Cmd + S (Mac) or Ctrl + S (Windows/Linux).
Full Screen Mode in Editor: For focused work, use the “Full Screen” button in the Prompt Editor to minimize distractions.
Batch Create Related Prompts: When working on a project, create all related prompts in one session, organizing them in the same folder.

Be Clear and Specific: The more specific your instructions, the better the AI’s output will be.
Set Context: Provide relevant background information and set the tone for the AI response.
Use System Instructions: Begin complex prompts with clear guidelines about how the AI should behave (e.g., “Act as a marketing expert with 10 years of experience…”).
Format with Rich Text: Use headings, lists, and text styling to make your prompts easier to read and understand.
Test and Iterate: Don’t expect perfect results immediately. Test your prompts and refine them based on the responses you get.

Regularly Review & Refine: Periodically go through your prompt library. Delete old or unused prompts, and refine your frequently used ones.
Monitor Credit Usage: Keep an eye on your subscription status and credit usage on your Account Page.
Create Prompt Templates: For your own commonly used prompt patterns, create templates in your library that you can quickly duplicate and modify.
