Build, test and share prompts that work perfectly with Apple Intelligence
Apple faces persistent accusations of losing the AI race due to its cautious, slow rollout of AI features
PromptApple gives power users, developers and product teams a collaborative workspace to create, version, and test prompts specifically optimized for Apple's on-device models and Private Cloud Compute. Users can simulate Apple's privacy constraints and export directly to Shortcuts, letting the Apple community innovate faster than Apple's own slow feature rollout.
