Claude Prompt Optimizer

The free Claude AI prompt optimizer tuned for Claude 3.5, 4 and Opus.

Score and rewrite your Claude prompts in real time inside claude.ai. Optimized for the patterns Anthropic\u2019s models reward — XML delimiters, named roles, thinking blocks and long-context layout.

Why Claude is different

Claude rewards structure more than any other LLM.

Anthropic has explicitly trained Claude to follow structured prompts: XML tags, named roles, explicit thinking blocks. A Claude-specific prompt optimizer pays back the structure with noticeably sharper answers — especially on long-context and document-grounded tasks.

Generic vs Claude-tuned

Claude-specific optimizations

Six rewrites tuned for Claude.

XML tag delimiters

Wraps source material in <document>, <example> or <context> tags — Claude’s strongest delimiter convention.

Named roles up front

Adds explicit role declarations ("You are…") at the top of the prompt, where Claude weighs them highest.

Thinking blocks

Inserts <thinking> blocks for reasoning-heavy tasks so Claude works through the problem before answering.

Output schemas

Adds explicit output schemas — Claude is exceptionally good at returning structured JSON when asked.

Constraints near the task

Places constraints right next to the instruction (Claude weights local context heavily) rather than at the end of the prompt.

Long-context layout

For long documents, places the question after the source material — the layout Claude handles best with its 200k-token context.

Claude AI Prompt Optimizer FAQ

Common questions.

Anthropic has explicitly trained Claude to follow structured prompts — XML tags, named roles, thinking blocks — more than other LLMs. A Claude-specific optimizer leverages those conventions, while a generic optimizer often does not.
Yes. AI Prompt Fixer is free forever for individuals and works in claude.ai through the browser extension.
Yes — it works with every Claude model. The optimizer detects which Claude is active and adjusts the rewrite profile accordingly.
Yes. The optimizer is aware of Claude’s 200k-token context and places source material and questions in the layout Claude handles best (instructions last, after the document).
For prompts that contain source material (documents, transcripts, code), yes — XML tags reduce ambiguity dramatically. For short instruction-only prompts, plain headings are fine.
