Practical intended benefits, not measured performance claims for Prompt Adviser.
Relevant detail removes ambiguity. Longer isn’t automatically better.
Built around research-supported prompting techniques.
Table 4 reports raw question-answering accuracy of 34.25% by default versus 54.75% with CLAM — a 20.5 percentage-point difference on constructed Ambiguous TriviaQA, using text-davinci-002 and simulated clarification. An older, narrow study; not a Prompt Adviser test.
Read the CLAM studyReports up to 31% improvement in classification performance measured by F1, through automated feedback and repeated testing. This concerns the study’s optimisation method, not a product improvement percentage for Prompt Adviser.
Read the ProTeGi studyStudy results depend on the model, task and method. They support these techniques, not measured performance claims for Prompt Adviser.

Andy Evans, also known as Digital Andy, is a UK entrepreneur, investor and adviser, and CEO and co-owner of Eleven Content, a B2B content agency.
He created Prompt Adviser to help himself and other people get better results from AI by asking better questions first. It brings structure to the brief, challenges assumptions and turns a rough idea into a clear prompt you control.
Built for anyone who wants to put AI to better use.
Yes. The skill is free and open source under the MIT licence. Your AI assistant subscription or optional API usage may still cost money.
Not directly in ordinary ChatGPT. The Codex edition is for skills-enabled Codex desktop and CLI hosts. See the platform instructions for the correct install path.
No. Roles are optional, and No role is always a valid choice. A role is framing, not a credential: it does not give a model new capabilities.
Generally not for a single prompt. Jev is an optional tool for structured, repeated routing, classification or scoring. It is not called during ordinary prompt review.
Source searches use generic task terms, not your private draft. Your assistant host and provider policies still apply. This site does not collect visitor prompts or provide a live AI service.
No. You may finalise at any score. Task execution begins only when you directly say “Run this prompt”, subject to your host’s permissions.
