6 rules for writing better AI prompts

The same habits our engineers use when building production AI features.

Give it a role

Start with who the AI should be: a senior editor, a skeptical investor or a hiring manager.

Add real context

Paste your data, audience, constraints and examples. Context beats clever wording.

Ask for a format

Tables, bullet lists, word limits and sections make answers easier to use.

Iterate

Treat the first answer as a draft. Ask it to critique and improve its own output.

Ask it to ask you

End with ask me clarifying questions first for complex tasks.

Protect sensitive data

Do not paste passwords, client secrets or personal data into public AI tools.

FAQ

AI prompts: frequently asked questions

What is an AI prompt?

An AI prompt is the instruction you give a model such as ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. A good prompt states the role, the task, the context, the format you want and any constraints, which makes the answer far more useful.

Are these prompts free to use?

Yes. Every prompt on this page is free to copy, edit and use for personal or commercial work.

Which AI tool should I use these prompts with?

Most text prompts work in ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini. Image prompts work in tools such as Gemini, ChatGPT image generation, Midjourney and Ideogram, and video prompts in Veo, Sora, Runway or Kling. Each card lists the tools it suits.

How do I customise a prompt?

Replace everything in [square brackets] with your own details. The more specific your context, audience and desired format, the better the result.

How is the prompt library organised?

Prompts are grouped into 14 category pages, such as business, marketing, coding, image generation and AI agents. Use the search box on this page to search all 160 prompts at once.
