Alternative
Looking for a PromptPerfect alternative?
Intro
PromptPerfect (by Jina AI) is no longer available after 1 September 2026, following Elastic’s acquisition of Jina. If you used it to turn rough prompts into clearer ones, you need a replacement that does the same job — rewrite the input, not answer it for you.
Prompt Mate is a free AI prompt enhancer at promptmate.cloud. Paste a rough idea, pick ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or an image model, and get back a structured prompt in about four seconds — plus a short note on what changed. There is also a Chrome extension that enhances in place on Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini, a free Vault of fill-in prompts, and a blog on prompting technique.
No card to try Pro. Every new account gets Pro free for 7 days; after that you stay on Free unless you upgrade.
What PromptPerfect did (and what replaces it)
PromptPerfect’s main job for most people was interactive prompt optimisation: take a weak prompt, return a stronger one. Some users also cared about an API or a stored library.
| If you used PromptPerfect for… | What to look for now | Where Prompt Mate fits |
|---|---|---|
| Occasional rewrites before pasting into ChatGPT / Claude / Gemini | A web enhancer or in-chat Chrome extension | Full fit — site + extension |
| A reusable library of prompts | Templates with variables + history | Pro: unlimited templates with {{variables}}, favourites, full-text history search |
| Calling an optimizer from your own code / API | First-party or developer tools (e.g. platform prompt optimizers, DSPy) | Not our focus — Prompt Mate is for people writing prompts, not shipping an API optimizer |
| Image-model prompts | Image-aware rewriting | Supported destination: image models get a dense descriptor-style line |
We are honest about the gap: if your workflow was API-first, start with the optimizer on the platform you already pay for. If your workflow was “make this prompt better, then paste it”, Prompt Mate is built for that.
How Prompt Mate works
- Type it badly — one line or a half-formed thought is fine.
- Say where it’s going — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Any AI, or an image model. Output is shaped for the destination (e.g. XML-style structure for Claude, Markdown steps for ChatGPT, a dense line for image models).
- Paste and go — you get a finished prompt and a note on what changed. Prompt Mate rewrites; it does not run the task itself.
With the Chrome extension, the rewrite happens inside the ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini input box, so there is nothing to copy between tabs.

Prompt Mate vs other PromptPerfect alternatives
Other tools people name on “PromptPerfect alternatives” lists:
| Tool | Best when you want… | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| Promptly (promptly.fyi) | A free extension + library + chat export across AI chats | Extension-first; less of a destination-shaped web enhancer with Pro models |
| Pretty Prompt | In-chat “Grammarly for prompts” with a large install base | Free tier is limited (e.g. 5 improved prompts/week on their site); Pro is a separate paid path |
| AIPRM | A big catalogue of ready-made prompt templates | Template library first; not primarily a rewrite-from-your-rough-idea enhancer |
| PromptSloth | One-click improve inside many AI tools + Mac app | Strong extension play; different pricing shape (weekly free quota, Pro/Lifetime) |
| Prompt Mate | Web enhancer + extension + Vault + clear Free/Pro (destination-shaped output, comprehensive briefs, templates with variables) | Smaller brand than the biggest extensions; we win on clarity of the Pro offer and model split |

Migration checklist (from PromptPerfect)
- Export anything you still have — if any PromptPerfect history or exports remain elsewhere, save them first. Shutdown notices also referenced later data deletion; do not assume cloud history survives.
- Pick your daily surface — web at promptmate.cloud, and/or the Chrome extension inside ChatGPT / Claude / Gemini.
- Recreate winners as templates — on Pro, wrap variable bits in
{{braces}}so the library outlives any one tool. - Try Pro for a week — no card; if comprehensive detail and the Pro models are not a habit by day 7, you simply stay on Free.
