Frequently Asked Questions
A prompt is an instruction or input you give to an AI model (like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.) to guide its response. It's essentially how you communicate what you want the AI to do. Well-crafted prompts lead to better, more useful outputs from AI systems.
While advanced AI models can handle casual questions well, prompts become critical when: • Using AI via API in applications — you often get only one chance to get it right ("one-shot prompting"), with no back-and-forth dialogue • Working with smaller, cost-effective models that need more precise instructions • Building production systems where consistency and reliability matter Optimized prompts help you get better results, save tokens (and money), and create more reliable AI-powered applications.
prompts.chat is a community-driven platform where people share, discover, and collect AI prompts. For over 4 years, users have been sharing their prompt optimization techniques here. The community helps each other improve their prompts and learn new approaches to working with AI systems.
Simply browse the prompts, find one you like, and copy it. You can then paste it into your preferred AI tool (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.) or use it in your applications via API. Many prompts include variables you can customize before copying.
