Common questions
What Prompt Helper does, in plain terms.
- What is a prompt helper?
- A prompt helper turns a plain description of what you want into a structured prompt a model can actually follow. Prompt Helper does this for AI video: you describe the subject, setting, camera and audio, and it assembles a Veo prompt with the parts models respond to — instead of leaving you to guess at phrasing.
- Is Prompt Helper free to use?
- Yes. The prompt builder runs entirely in your browser and is free with no account. Only the optional AI Brief Assist, which drafts the brief fields for you, requires signing in.
- Which AI video models does it support?
- Prompts are built for the current Veo line — Veo 3.1, 3.1 Fast, and 3.1 Lite. Veo 4 has not shipped; at I/O 2026 Google announced Gemini Omni Flash as its next video model instead. Because the output is plain text, prompts transfer to most other video models with light editing.
- What is the difference between the Text and JSON output?
- Text is the paste-ready prompt for the Veo app or any chat-style interface. JSON is the same prompt broken into named fields — subject, action, camera, lighting, audio, negatives — which is easier to version, diff, and reuse across a batch of shots or feed to an API.
- Do I need prompt engineering experience?
- No. Every format in the library starts from a working structure you can copy and adapt. If you want the reasoning behind the structure, the guides break down the prompt formula, camera language, and how negative prompts fix common failures.
