Custom Prompts
Rankry gives you two places to manage prompts. Semantic Core holds your tailored category prompt set, which runs with every report. Prompt Lab lets you run ad-hoc prompts on demand, or monitor them daily or weekly, without changing your core set. Together they let you measure your baseline and test new ideas.

Semantic Core versus Prompt Lab
Section titled “Semantic Core versus Prompt Lab”| Surface | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Semantic Core | Your fixed category prompt set, run with each report |
| Prompt Lab | Ad-hoc and monitored prompts for testing |
Editing the Semantic Core changes your baseline. Prompt Lab leaves the baseline untouched, which makes it safe for experiments.
Creating and organizing prompts
Section titled “Creating and organizing prompts”In Semantic Core you add, edit, archive, and group prompts into categories. In Prompt Lab you create single or bulk prompts, run them across the models, and promote the useful ones into your core set.
Monitoring Lab prompts
Section titled “Monitoring Lab prompts”A Lab prompt can be monitored on a daily or weekly schedule, so you track a priority question without adding it to every report. Promote a Lab prompt to core when it becomes part of your standing baseline.
Best practices
Section titled “Best practices”- Keep the Semantic Core focused on the buyer-intent prompts that route decisions.
- Use Prompt Lab to validate a new page before committing it to your core set.
- Promote a Lab prompt to core only once it proves worth tracking long term.
Limitations
Section titled “Limitations”Each plan sets how many prompts and Lab runs you get. Editing core prompts mid-trend changes the baseline, so make deliberate changes rather than frequent small edits.
