What counts as a prompt
How Promptive defines a prompt, how plan limits work, and how to manage your active prompt count.
Definition
A prompt in Promptive is a single query that is sent to every engine on your plan, once per day. Your plan limit is the number of prompts you can have in Active status at any given time.
Suggested prompts and Inactive prompts do not count toward your limit. Only Active prompts do.
Response volume
Because each prompt is sent to every engine daily, one active prompt generates multiple responses per day. The math:
| Plan | Engines | Active prompts | Responses/day | Responses/month |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trial | 3 | 20 | 60 | ~1,800 |
| Starter | 3 | 50 | 150 | ~4,500 |
| Pro | 4 | 100 | 400 | ~12,000 |
| Growth | 4 | 200 | 800 | ~24,000 |
| Scale | 4 | 400 | 1,600 | ~48,000 |
How limits work
When you reach your active prompt limit, you can't add new prompts without first deactivating existing ones. Deactivating a prompt moves it to Inactive status — tracking stops, but all historical data is preserved.
To upgrade your limit, go to Settings → Billing and choose a higher plan. Upgrades take effect immediately.
