What is PromptBase?
PromptBase is an online marketplace for AI prompts, the text instructions that steer image, video and text models. Sellers upload a prompt with example outputs, PromptBase reviews it against its submission guidelines, and buyers pay a seller-set price to get the full prompt and its variables; before paying, buyers judge quality from the examples and reviews. Most listings target image models, with 157,000+ Midjourney prompts alone, alongside ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok and DeepSeek prompts, video models such as Sora, KLING and Veo, and SKILL.md agent skills. Buyers who want volume can subscribe to PromptBase Select for 10 downloads a month, with unused downloads rolling over up to 120. Generation credits let buyers run prompts and creator-built apps on PromptBase itself instead of in their own AI subscriptions. Sellers are paid through Stripe, which needs a $30 minimum balance and an account at least 30 days old, or through Zoneless, which pays daily in USDC with no minimum.
PromptBase is a marketplace for AI prompts: creators list prompts and agent skills for models such as Midjourney, ChatGPT Image, Gemini, Claude, FLUX, Sora and Veo, and buyers pay a one-time price, mostly $2.99-$9.99, to unlock each one. The site lists 330,000+ prompts and reports 520,000+ users and a 4.9 average from 44,000+ on-site reviews. PromptBase Select, launched in February 2026, gives 10 downloads a month from 275,000+ opted-in prompts for $14/month billed annually or $19/month billed monthly. Selling is free, but PromptBase keeps 20% of each marketplace sale (0% on sales through a seller's own link), and the optional Creator ($19/month) and Pro ($39/month) seller plans lower that fee. PromptBase also runs an app store for prompt-powered generators, a hire board for commissioned prompt work and a creator chat.
Standout feature: Catalog size: 330,000+ reviewed prompts across image, video and text models, with Select letting subscribers download 10 a month from 275,000+ of them.
Biggest weakness: Buyers pay before seeing the prompt text and judge it only from example outputs and reviews, and a prompt tuned for one model version can behave differently after that model updates; sellers also give up 20% of each marketplace sale unless they pay $19-$39/month for a seller plan.
