How to Write an Effective Prompt for BraveAI

Writing an effective prompt will ensure BraveAI generates accurate and helpful content for you. This section discusses some tips and examples to help you master writing AI prompts.

When writing AI prompts, it is important to consider adding the following elements:
  • Define the purpose
  • Indicate the length
  • Specify the topic
  • Indicate the tone and style
  • Provide key points and details you want added

For example, you can say, "Write two paragraphs about our small business. We are called Deja Brew and we are a Coffee Shop in Denver, Colorado. We provide coffee, tea, and specialty cold beverages. We are open for business Monday-Friday 7:30 am-3 pm and 10 am-2 pm on weekends."




You can even ask it to write follow-up text afterward and it will remember what was previously entered.
For example, you can say "I want you to elaborate on why it's important to visit us."




Perhaps you want it longer, say "Make it three paragraphs."



We encourage you to give BraveAI a try and experiment with different prompts to discover just how useful this new tool can be.
