This guide teaches you how to write better prompts for Omnifact’s AI assistant — no technical background or coding required. Each section builds on the last, moving from basic prompt structure to advanced techniques.

​
What is Prompt Engineering?

Prompt engineering is simply learning how to communicate clearly with AI assistants like Omnifact. Think of it as learning how to give good directions to a helpful colleague who can assist with almost any task — but only if you ask in the right way. In simple terms: “Prompt engineering” just means learning how to ask AI the right questions to get the best answers. Just like giving directions to a new employee, the clearer and more specific your instructions are, the better results you’ll get.
