The UI guides you through a simple 3-step workflow:
- Upload Data: Load your dataset (CSV/JSON) or use built-in samples. Preview and validate your data before continuing.
- Build Template: Create or select a prompt template, with smart suggestions based on your data. See a live preview of your template.
- Generate & Export: Configure generation settings, run the variation process, and export your results in various formats.
The Streamlit UI is the easiest way to explore, test, and generate prompt variations visually.
PromptSuite supports multiple AI platforms with automatic dependency detection:
- TogetherAI: Open-source models (Llama, Mistral, etc.)
- OpenAI: GPT models (GPT-4, GPT-3.5, etc.)
- Anthropic: Claude models (claude-3-haiku, claude-3-sonnet, claude-3-opus)
- Google: Gemini models (gemini-1.5-flash, gemini-1.5-pro)
- Cohere: Command models (command-r-plus, command-r)
Install optional platform dependencies:
pip install -r requirements-optional.txtOr install specific platforms:
pip install anthropic # For Anthropic/Claude
pip install google-generativeai # For Google/Gemini
pip install cohere # For CohereSet environment variables for the platforms you want to use:
export TOGETHER_API_KEY="your_together_key"
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_key"
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your_anthropic_key"
export GOOGLE_API_KEY="your_google_key"

PromptSuite automatically optimizes performance by pre-generating variations for shared fields:
- Instruction variations (
instruction variations) are generated once and reused across all data rows - Prompt format variations (
prompt format variations) are generated once and reused across all data rows
This optimization is especially important for LLM-based augmenters like paraphrase_with_llm that would otherwise run the same API calls repeatedly for identical text.
Simple format (for text answers):
'gold': 'answer' # Just the column nameAdvanced format (for index-based answers):
'gold': {
'field': 'answer',
'type': 'index', # Answer is an index
'options_field': 'options' # Column with the options
}Few-shot examples can be configured with different sampling strategies. The format names clearly indicate what varies across data rows and variations:
Format naming convention: <examples_strategy>__<order_strategy>
- Examples strategy: Whether examples are the same or different across data rows
- Order strategy: Whether the order of examples varies across variations
| Format | Description | Use Case |
|---|---|---|
same_examples__no_variations |
Same examples for all rows, no variations (single variation per row) | When you want consistent, predictable examples |
same_examples__synchronized_order_variations |
Same examples for all rows, synchronized order variations across all rows | When you want consistent examples but test different orderings |
different_examples__same_shuffling_order_across_rows |
Different examples per row, same shuffling order across rows | When you want unique examples per question but consistent ordering patterns |
different_examples__different_order_per_variation |
Different examples and different order per variation | When you want maximum variety and different examples per question |
Examples:
# same_examples__no_variations
# Row 1: [Example A, Example B]
# Row 2: [Example A, Example B] # Same examples, no variations
# same_examples__synchronized_order_variations
# Row 1, Variation 1: [Example A, Example B]
# Row 1, Variation 2: [Example B, Example A]
# Row 2, Variation 1: [Example A, Example B] # Same order as Row 1, Variation 1
# Row 2, Variation 2: [Example B, Example A] # Same order as Row 1, Variation 2
# different_examples__same_shuffling_order_across_rows
# Row 1, Variation 1: [Example A, Example B]
# Row 1, Variation 2: [Example A, Example B] # Same examples for this row
# Row 2, Variation 1: [Example C, Example D] # Different examples
# Row 2, Variation 2: [Example C, Example D] # Same examples for this row
# different_examples__different_order_per_variation
# Row 1, Variation 1: [Example A, Example B]
# Row 1, Variation 2: [Example C, Example D] # Different examples
# Row 2, Variation 1: [Example E, Example F] # Different examples
# Row 2, Variation 2: [Example G, Example H] # Different examplesExample:
"few_shot": {
"count": 2, # Number of examples to use
"format": "same_examples__synchronized_order_variations", # Sampling strategy
"split": "train", # Use only training data for examples
"filter_by": "category", # NEW: Optional column name to filter few-shot examples by
"fallback_strategy": "global" # NEW: What to do if not enough examples in filtered category ('global' or 'strict')
}Few-Shot Filtering with filter_by and fallback_strategy:
This new feature allows you to control which few-shot examples are selected based on metadata columns (e.g., 'category', 'difficulty').
filter_by: Specify a column name in your dataset (e.g.,"category","subject") to ensure that few-shot examples are chosen from the same category as the current data row.fallback_strategy: Defines the behavior when there aren't enough few-shot examples within the filtered category:"global": (Default) If there aren't enough examples in the specifiedfilter_bycategory, the system will sample the remaining required examples from the entire dataset (globally), ignoring the category filter for those additional examples. This ensures that the requestedcountof few-shot examples is always met."strict": If there aren't enough examples in the specifiedfilter_bycategory, the system will only use the examples available within that category. It will not pull examples from other categories, and if thecountcannot be met from the category, it will raise anFewShotDataInsufficientError. This is useful for strict domain-specific few-shot requirements.
This feature is useful when you want each test question to have unique few-shot examples for context, but don't need multiple variations of the few-shot examples themselves.
