Create a Prompt

Creating a prompt on BetterPrompt is simple, but a few best practices will help ensure it’s both reusable and appealing to other users.

1. Pick Out Inputs

Inputs are placeholder fields that other users can fill in to adapt your prompt to their needs. They also make it easier for you to re-run the same prompt multiple times with different data.

Example:

Write a short story about {{ character_name }} who travels to {{ location }}.

Here, {{ character_name }} and {{ location }} are inputs.

2. Run a Few Examples

The best way to validate your prompt is to test it with example inputs directly through BetterPrompt.

• This ensures your placeholders work as intended.
• You can save these outputs as sample results, which help potential users understand what your prompt can do before they run it.

3. Pick a Title and Add a Description

A clear and concise title and description will make it easier for users to find and understand your prompt.

• Title: Summarize the core purpose of the prompt. This is also important in helping us recommend the prompt to others.
• Description: Explain how it works, what it’s best for, and any tips for getting great results.

Example:

Title: Social Media Caption Generator for Travel Photos

Description: Creates catchy, location-specific captions for Instagram posts. Just upload your photo and add some location context.
