Useful for anyone who wants to share a prompt quickly without thinking about design: newsletter writers, community managers, and people posting to general audiences.
- Best for
- general-purpose prompts, how-to prompts, prompt collections, onboarding examples
- How it looks
- A light, high-contrast card with a simple platform label, a short generated title, and your prompt text in a legible sans-serif layout.
- Skip it when
- the prompt needs to stand out in a visual feed (try Social) or reads as clearly technical (try Developer or Terminal).
Use the Clean template →Best for creators and marketers who share AI prompts as standalone social posts rather than inside an article or thread.
- Best for
- viral prompt ideas, prompt-of-the-day posts, marketing prompts, creative writing prompts
- How it looks
- A square card with a deep purple-to-navy gradient background, bright text, and generous padding so it reads well as a thumbnail.
- Skip it when
- the prompt is long or structured — the square canvas and bold gradient leave little room to read (try Editorial or Research).
Use the Social template →Built for engineers documenting how they prompt coding agents like Cursor and Codex, or explaining a workflow to another developer.
- Best for
- coding prompts, debugging prompts, architecture prompts, API prompts, technical explanations
- How it looks
- A dark, near-black card with a monospace typeface and a subtle border — styled like a code editor rather than a social graphic.
- Skip it when
- the prompt isn't code-related — a dark, monospace card can look overly technical for a general audience (try Clean or Minimal).
Use the Developer template →Suited to engineers working with CLI-based coding agents who want a screenshot that visually matches a terminal or IDE.
- Best for
- CLI tool prompts, agent instructions, system prompts, shell-style workflows
- How it looks
- A wide, dark canvas with monospace type throughout, echoing a terminal window more than a typical prompt card.
- Skip it when
- the prompt is a long paragraph rather than short, command-like text — the canvas is built for brevity (try Developer or Editorial).
Use the Terminal template →A good fit for writers and educators sharing prompts that read more like a paragraph than a short instruction.
- Best for
- long-form prompts, writing prompts, teaching prompts, thought-leadership content
- How it looks
- A warm paper-toned background with serif-adjacent spacing and a large square canvas built for reading, not just scanning.
- Skip it when
- the prompt is short — Editorial's generous paper-toned spacing looks empty with only a line or two (try Clean or Minimal).
Use the Editorial template →Useful for analysts, researchers, and students documenting the exact prompts behind a piece of analysis.
- Best for
- research prompts, analysis prompts, summarization prompts, comparison prompts
- How it looks
- A light, landscape card with plenty of whitespace and a clear hierarchy between the topic and the prompt body.
- Skip it when
- you want a decorative, attention-grabbing look for social — Research favors clarity over visual impact (try Social).
Use the Research template →A fit for anyone journaling prompt experiments or sharing an early-stage idea rather than a finished workflow.
- Best for
- brainstorming prompts, idea prompts, experiment logs, personal notes
- How it looks
- A square, paper-toned canvas with a soft, informal feel — closer to a notebook page than a polished slide.
- Skip it when
- the prompt represents a finished, polished workflow — Notebook's informal tone can undersell it (try Clean or Editorial).
Use the Notebook template →Best when the prompt needs to speak for itself, without a platform badge or theme pulling focus.
- Best for
- short prompts, quote-style prompts, documentation snippets, plain sharing
- How it looks
- A square, neutral card with restrained color and spacing — the plainest of the eight PromptShot styles.
- Skip it when
- the prompt needs a platform badge or extra context to make sense at a glance — Minimal drops that framing (try Clean).
