# Suggested Prompts

> Let AI generate topic-specific prompts that you can review, accept, or decline before adding to your project.

Suggested Prompts is an AI-powered feature that generates prompt ideas based on a topic you describe. While the onboarding flow generates prompts broadly across your topics, Suggested Prompts lets you drill into specific areas to expand your monitoring coverage.

## How It Works

1. Navigate to your project's **Prompts** tab
2. Click **Suggest Prompts**
3. Select a **Topic** to assign generated prompts to — choose an existing topic or create a new one
4. Add an optional **description** for more context
5. Define the **target audience** for the prompts
6. Select a **country** and **language**
7. Click **Generate**

Surfacd uses AI to generate a set of relevant prompts based on your topic. These appear with a **Suggestion** status — they are not active until you review and accept them.

<Info>
  Prompt generation runs in the background. You'll see a progress indicator while prompts are being created — you can navigate away and come back later.

## Reviewing Suggestions

Once generated, suggested prompts appear in your prompts list with a **Suggestion** badge. For each prompt, you can:

* **Accept** — moves the prompt to **Active** status and includes it in future data collection runs
* **Decline** — marks the prompt as **Declined** and removes it from the active view

You can accept or decline prompts individually or in bulk.

## What Happens After Accepting

When you accept a suggested prompt:

* It becomes **Active** and is included in future data collection runs
* A **keyword** is automatically extracted from the prompt text
* The prompt counts toward your project's prompt limit and credit calculations

## When to Use Suggested Prompts

| Scenario                                    | Example                                                          |
| ------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Expanding into a new topic area             | "AI-powered customer service chatbots"                           |
| Discovering questions you hadn't considered | "What concerns do enterprise buyers have about cloud migration?" |
| Building coverage for a product launch      | "Electric vehicle fleet management for logistics companies"      |
| Filling gaps in your prompt library         | "Data privacy regulations in healthcare"                         |

## Tips

* Be specific with your topic description — "CRM for financial advisors" generates better prompts than just "CRM"
* Include your target audience to get prompts that match real buyer questions
* Review all suggestions before accepting — remove any that are too niche or off-topic for your needs
* Use Suggested Prompts alongside other methods: onboarding for broad coverage, Suggested Prompts for deep dives into specific areas
* Don't worry about duplicates — Surfacd automatically detects and skips prompts that already exist in your project
