Promptle – The Daily AI Prompt Challenge

What if Wordle met ChatGPT? Ever feel stuck trying to get the right output from ChatGPT or Midjourney? The idea sparked from a simple thought: “What if Wordle met ChatGPT?” I wanted to gamify the creative process of writing AI prompts—a skill becoming as vital as coding. As an avid prompt tinkerer and daily Wordle player, I felt there was a missing intersection between creative constraint, feedback, and skill-building. Thus, Promptle was born: a daily game where players write prompts instead of guesses, and creativity—not just logic—is the path to victory.

How it works:

- You get a daily creative challenge like “Describe a city that only appears during eclipses.” - Write a prompt and get scored on accuracy, creativity, and efficiency - Color-coded feedback à la Wordle - 3 tries per day + unlock a fun bonus round if you crush it (e.g., “Now turn it into a limerick!”) - No login, no accounts, just localStorage to track your personal best and personal streak — just play. - Share your score with friends using a signature Promptle-style, complete with medals and your final score (Think Wordle sharing… but for prompt nerds)

Tech bits overview:

- Built entirely in Bolt.new with React + Tailwind + GPT-4 Turbo + GPT-3.5 + TypeScript - Animations done with Frame Motion - LocalStorage from streaks and stats - Custom scoring using Custom GPT evaluator + similarity rubricsStreaks tracked in localStorage - Voice(experimental!) via Eleven LabsDeployed on Netlify in minutes

This is my little love letter to prompt craft and creative constraint Curious to see how you would write a prompt for “an alien smoothie recipe”?

Try it here: https://promptle.quest/ Learn more about how this was built: https://devpost.com/software/promptle-creative-prompt-challe...

Let the daily prompt grind begin!

This is awesome thanks for sharing Promptle with us. I had fun describing a cooking show based on the Great British bakeoff but spanning different time periods.

My favorite was Episode 3 - "Pie-rates of the Caribbean": The task is to bake savory pies on a pirate ship in the 1700s and aboard a time-traveling vessel in the year 3000, where ingredients are sourced from different galaxies.

I wish I could see my past prompts to help me inform the next ones.

Thanks so much! Love that you leaned into the time travel idea—“Pie-rates of the Caribbean” is a prompt masterpiece in itself.

Totally agree on the need to view past prompts. I am working on adding a “Prompt History” feature so players can revisit and learn from their previous entries as well as just simply view what their 1st or 2nd entry was to improve their 3rd one—great for tracking creativity over time or remixing your own gems.

Stay tuned, and keep the brilliant prompts coming @jennykaypollock !

I wanted to highlight some of the challenges I ran into -

Eleven Labs Voice Integration I wanted Promptle to speak your score results back—“You got an 8/10!” with some sass. But:

- Voice API limits meant I had to cache responses cleverly to avoid burning tokens - Playback inconsistencies in mobile browsers made testing a pain
