# Prompt library

> Ready-to-use prompt templates for every industry and use case in HoopAI.

The HoopAI prompt library is a curated collection of copy-paste prompt templates designed to help you deploy AI-powered conversations faster. Whether you are building a customer support bot, a lead qualification flow, or a voice AI receptionist, these templates give you a proven starting point.

## What is the prompt library?

Every AI bot in HoopAI — whether it runs on [Conversation AI](/ai/conversation-ai/overview) or [Voice AI](/ai/voice-ai/overview) — is powered by a system prompt. The system prompt tells the AI who it is, what it should do, and how it should behave.

Writing a great prompt from scratch takes time and iteration. The prompt library removes that friction by providing **battle-tested templates** you can drop into your bots and customize in minutes.

## How to use a template

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose a category">
    Browse the categories below to find the template closest to your use case.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy the prompt">
    Each template includes a full prompt inside a code block. Copy the entire text.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Replace variables">
    Look for `{variables}` wrapped in curly braces. Replace them with your actual business information — company name, hours, services, and so on.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Paste into your bot">
    Navigate to your bot configuration in HoopAI and paste the prompt into the system prompt field.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Test and refine">
    Run test conversations and adjust the prompt based on real interactions. Small tweaks to tone, guardrails, or instructions can make a big difference.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Customization guidance

<Tip>
  Templates are starting points, not finished products. The best-performing bots are always customized for your specific business, audience, and tone of voice.
</Tip>

Here are the most impactful customizations you can make:

* **Business details** — Replace every `{variable}` with accurate information. The more specific you are, the better the AI performs.
* **Tone and personality** — Adjust the voice to match your brand. A law firm sounds different from a surf shop.
* **Guardrails** — Add explicit instructions about what the AI should never say or promise. This is especially important for regulated industries.
* **Escalation rules** — Define exactly when and how the AI should hand off to a human agent.
* **Knowledge base** — Pair your prompt with a [knowledge base](/ai/conversation-ai/knowledge-base) for answers that go beyond what fits in a prompt.
