Prompts allow you to create, save, and reuse templates for AI applications.

What Are Prompts?

In Siloed, a Prompt is a pre-crafted set of instructions designed to guide AI applications in processing your data capsules effectively. Prompts help you get consistent, high-quality responses from AI models by providing clear context and instructions.

Well-designed prompts are crucial for getting the most out of AI applications. By saving your successful prompts, you can achieve consistent results without rewriting instructions each time.

Why Use Saved Prompts?

Saved prompts offer several advantages:

  • Consistency: Get reliable results from AI applications every time
  • Efficiency: Save time by reusing effective instructions
  • Optimization: Refine prompts over time to improve results
  • Sharing: Use standardized prompts across your team (Enterprise feature)
  • Specialization: Create purpose-specific prompts for different tasks

Creating Prompts

Create prompts in the Prompts section of the Siloed dashboard.
