The Challenge of LLM Selection and Prompt Optimization
Organizations face a critical challenge when working with Large Language Models (LLMs): How do you select the right model and craft the perfect prompt for your specific use case? With multiple providers offering various models, each with its own strengths and quirks, the process of finding the optimal combination can be daunting and time-consuming.
Introducing Strongly.AI's Prompt Comparison Feature
At Strongly.AI, we understand the importance of leveraging the full potential of LLMs while maintaining efficiency in your workflows. That's why we've developed our innovative Prompt Comparison feature, designed to streamline the process of model selection and prompt optimization.
Key Capabilities:
- Select from multiple LLM providers and models
- Configure available parameters for each model
- Set custom system and assistant prompts
- Test with a single user prompt across all selected models
- Compare responses side-by-side for easy evaluation
Why Use Prompt Comparison?
Our Prompt Comparison feature offers several compelling benefits:
- Optimize Model Selection: Quickly identify which LLM performs best for your specific use case, ensuring you're leveraging the most effective AI technology available.
- Refine Prompts: Experiment with different system and assistant prompts to see how they affect the output across various models, allowing you to craft the perfect prompt for your needs.
- Save Time and Resources: Instead of manually testing each model and prompt combination, our feature allows you to compare multiple options simultaneously, significantly reducing the time and effort required for optimization.
- Ensure Consistency: By testing the same user prompt across different models, you can ensure consistent performance and output quality regardless of the underlying LLM.
- Adapt to Changing Needs: As your requirements evolve or new models become available, easily re-evaluate your choices to maintain peak performance.
Real-World Use Cases
The Prompt Comparison feature is invaluable across various scenarios:
- Content Creation: Compare how different models generate marketing copy, product descriptions, or creative writing prompts.
- Customer Support: Test response quality and tone for customer inquiries across multiple models to ensure the best user experience.
- Data Analysis: Evaluate how different models interpret and summarize complex datasets or generate insights.
- Code Generation: Compare code output quality and accuracy across various programming tasks and languages.
- Language Translation: Assess the nuance and accuracy of translations for different language pairs across models.
Seamless Integration with Your Workflow
We've designed our Prompt Comparison feature with flexibility and ease of use in mind:
Save and Reuse: Once you've found the perfect combination of model, parameters, and prompts, save your settings for future use. These optimized configurations can be easily accessed and applied in our StronglyGPT UI or via our REST API, ensuring consistency and efficiency in your AI-powered workflows.

Prompt Comparison in Action: A Real-World Example
To illustrate the power of our Prompt Comparison feature, let's walk through a practical example for a customer support use case. We'll compare how different system and assistant prompts affect the response to a customer inquiry about a late delivery.
Scenario: Customer Support for Late Delivery
In this example, we'll use two different approaches: one focused on empathy and problem-solving, and another on efficiency and information gathering.
LLM Models Selected:
- GPT-4
- Claude 3.5
System Prompts:
System Prompt 1 (Empathy-focused):
You are an AI customer support agent for EcoShop, an eco-friendly online store. Your primary goal is to provide empathetic, solution-oriented support to customers. Always prioritize the customer's feelings and work towards a positive resolution.
System Prompt 2 (Efficiency-focused):
You are an AI customer support agent for EcoShop, an eco-friendly online store. Your primary goal is to efficiently gather information and provide accurate, concise responses to customer inquiries. Focus on facts and actionable steps.
Assistant Prompts:
Assistant Prompt 1 (Empathy-focused):
When addressing customer concerns, always start by acknowledging their feelings and the inconvenience they've experienced. Use a warm, friendly tone and offer personalized solutions. If you need more information, ask for it gently. End your response with an encouraging note.
Assistant Prompt 2 (Efficiency-focused):
Begin your response by directly addressing the customer's main concern. Provide clear, step-by-step instructions or information. If you need more details to resolve the issue, ask specific, targeted questions. Keep your language professional and concise.
User Prompt:
Hi, I ordered an eco-friendly water bottle from your store last week, and it was supposed to arrive yesterday. It's still not here, and I need it for a camping trip this weekend. Can you help?
Comparison of Responses:
GPT-4 with System Prompt 1 and Assistant Prompt 1:
Hello! I'm really sorry to hear that your water bottle hasn't arrived as expected, especially since you need it for your camping trip this weekend. I can understand how frustrating this must be for you. Let me assist you in resolving this.
Can you please provide me with your order number?
That way, I can check the status of your shipment and see what we can do to get your water bottle to you in time for your trip.
Claude 3.5 with System Prompt 2 and Assistant Prompt 2:
I apologize for the delay with your order. I'd be happy to help you track it down. To assist you better, I'll need some information:
- Can you provide your order number?
- What's the full name on the order?
- What's the shipping address?
Once I have these details, I can check the status of your shipment and provide you with more accurate information about its whereabouts and expected delivery date.
Analysis:
As we can see, the different combinations of system and assistant prompts led to notably different responses:
- The GPT-4 response with the empathy-focused prompts is longer, more personalized, and emphasizes emotional support. It acknowledges the customer's feelings multiple times and offers reassurance.
- The Claude 2 response with the efficiency-focused prompts is more concise and action-oriented. It immediately focuses on gathering specific information to resolve the issue and offers clear next steps.
Both responses address the core issue, but they do so in distinctly different styles that could appeal to different types of customers or be more appropriate for different situations.
This comparison demonstrates the importance of carefully crafting system and assistant prompts to align with your brand voice and customer service goals. By using Strongly.AI's Prompt Comparison feature, you can test these different approaches and determine which one results in the most effective customer interactions for your specific audience and use case.
