In this article you will find frequently asked questions about Purple Prompts.
Yes, and we even recommend adapting prompts because you want to constantly optimise your prompts to make your editorial work more efficient in the long term.
A central component of Purple Prompts is the prompts management interface. The UI is for managing saved prompts, i.e. customise existing prompts and add new prompts. Besides, you can even edit the Prompt on the article view while applying it.
Find out more about how prompts management works in the Purple Hub.
In general, we recommend playing with prompts, trying different versions and tweaking reused prompts to get better results over time.
To help you get the best results from your prompts, we have summarised our 'Prompt Writing Best Practices' in an article.
We have also collected some external articles that we think might be useful for getting a good basic understanding of how to work with prompts:
You can use Purple Prompts to save time when creating content and automate manual tasks after article creation, using prompts stored directly in the Purple Hub.
- You can automatically generate headline, excerpt or meta descriptions for articles.
- You can automatically generate search queries for your article: Google News searches or an image search for stock photography (Imagoo by default).

Purple Prompts is based on GPT4, which we use via the Open AI API and make available in the Purple Hub.
We use the Open AI API for Purple Prompts and Open AI states about the API usage:
“OpenAI does not use data submitted to and generated by our API to train OpenAI models or improve OpenAI’s service offering”
“Data is stored on the OpenAI site for up to 30 days, but only to recognise any problematic use, and then deleted again.”

Temperature controls the model's creativity as you work on your text. You can control the creativity of the model using the Temperature setting. Higher values, such as 0.7 - 1, result in a more varied and creative output. Lower values, such as 0 - 0.5, make the output more deterministic and focused.
If a task requires creativity and out-of-the-box thinking, a higher temperature should be set. This will allow different answers to be generated and can be useful for tasks such as title generation, meta description generation or creative article rewriting.
On the other hand, if the task is straightforward and requires less creativity, or if the model should stick closely to the given text and reuse existing phrases, a lower temperature should be used. Setting the temperature to a low or even zero value may result in the same output, limiting the generation of different variants. This is often used for tasks such as summarising, shortening existing articles or generating excerpts.
No, that would be so-called fine-tuning and we think that this knowledge of which content works well and how it should be designed should lie with the editors, who have a lot of experience and are trained in analysing your web analytics.
Yes, that’s possible, please talk to us, if you wish to have a restricted usage of the Prompts Management UI set up. This could make sense, if you see the Prompts in your news room as a valuable good, as it’s based on a lot of trials and experience, that you want the result to be safe from changes.
