The best prompts in the world are sitting in Notion pages and Slack threads, invisible to everyone except the person who wrote them. We think that's a waste — so we built a place where proven prompts come with receipts attached, and the ones that actually ship get ranked.
Oort started from a frustration both of us kept hitting: every time we needed a good prompt — for a cold email, a bug triage, a tweet — we'd end up re-solving a problem someone had already solved. Usually ourselves, six months earlier, in a file we couldn't find.
The existing "prompt marketplaces" were full of untested submissions ranked by upvotes from people who had never actually run them. What we wanted was different: every prompt should come with the number of times real users ran it this week, who authored it, and — when we could get it — a case study of what happened when someone shipped it into their real workflow.
That's the product. Bring your own API keys. Run whatever you want. The prompts that rise to the top are the ones people actually keep coming back to. We charge a flat subscription for the platform itself, take no cut of your API spend, and refuse to pool keys because that breaks every major provider's terms.
Rankings derive from unique-user run counts, weighted by quality ratings. One whale can't rig the leaderboard. Neither can a voting brigade.
A case study without numbers isn't a case study. Every outcome we feature ties to a specific prompt or workflow that can be reproduced by someone who reads the piece.
We don't pool keys, don't train on your prompts, don't log your outputs for BYOK traffic. Provider terms respected — every time.
The goal isn't to impress anyone with our UI. It's to get you from 'I have a task' to 'I have an output' in under 90 seconds. Everything else is noise.
Pre-launch and intentionally small. Every prompt on the platform gets used by its author in real work first — that's the bar.
We're a small team and not actively hiring, but we love hearing from people who want to argue about how the product should work.
