Introduction

PromptLayer is an AI tool that helps prompt engineers to track, manage, and share their GPT prompt engineering. It acts as a middleware between your code and OpenAI’s Python library, recording and allowing you to search and explore all your OpenAI API requests in the user-friendly PromptLayer dashboard. It is designed to improve model performance and optimize prompt design, ultimately increasing productivity1. It is also free to use.

Features

Some of the features of PromptLayer are:

• Logging OpenAI requests: PromptLayer automatically records all your OpenAI API requests, including the input, output, parameters, and metadata. You can view and search your request history in the dashboard, as well as filter by date, model, engine, and more.

   

• Monitoring AI performance: PromptLayer allows you to track and compare the performance of different models, engines, and prompts. You can see metrics such as response time, completion length, semantic similarity, and more. You can also visualize the output distribution and confidence scores of your models.

   

• Prompt Registry (Visualizing prompt templates): PromptLayer helps you create and edit prompt templates using a drag-and-drop interface. You can customize the input format, output format, parameters, and instructions for your prompts. You can also test your prompts on different models and engines, and see the results in real-time.

   

• Sharing prompt engineering: PromptLayer enables you to share your prompt engineering with others. You can export your prompts as JSON files or Python code snippets. You can also import prompts from other sources or users. You can collaborate with other prompt engineers on the same project or workspace.

   

Pricing

PromptLayer is free to use for anyone who has access to OpenAI’s API. But if you are looking to do more, then you have three other plans to choose from – Individual, Startup, and Team. Individual costs $19/month and come with 7 days of logs and 10,000 requests, Startup costs $59/month with logs never expiring and 100,000 requests. Finally, the team plan costs $129/month and 1,000,000 requests with a shared Slack channel. If you wish to stick with the free plan then you get 7 days of logs and 1,000 requests.

User Interface/ Ease of use

PromptLayer has a simple and intuitive user interface that allows you to easily navigate between different features and functions. Here are some screenshots of how PromptLayer looks like:

PromptLayer Dashboard

 

The dashboard shows your request history and allows you to filter and search by various criteria.

PromptLayer Analytics

 

The Analytics tab shows the metrics and visualizations of your model outputs.

PromptLayer Templates

 

The templates tab allows you to create and edit prompt templates using a drag-and-drop interface.

PromptLayer is designed to be easy to use for prompt engineers of any skill level. It has a simple installation process and a user-friendly interface. It also integrates seamlessly with OpenAI’s Python library, so you don’t need to learn a new syntax or framework. However, you still need to have some basic knowledge of OpenAI’s API and Python programming.
