Last Updated: June 6, 2025
Service Overview
These terms govern your use of Prompt Optimizer's hybrid platform, including our cloud-hosted API, web dashboard, and local MCP bridge package. Our service combines enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with flexible deployment options for seamless AI workflow integration.
Acceptance of Terms
By creating an account, subscribing to our service, or using the Prompt Optimizer platform (including our cloud API, web interface, or NPM package), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service.
These terms apply to all users of our hybrid prompt optimization platform, including direct API consumers, web interface users, and those using our local MCP bridge package.
Service Description
Prompt Optimizer is a hybrid AI prompt enhancement platform consisting of:
• Cloud-hosted optimization engine with enterprise-grade infrastructure
• Web-based dashboard for direct optimization and account management
• RESTful API for programmatic access and custom integrations
• NPM package (mcp-prompt-optimizer) providing local MCP bridge functionality
• Support for 17+ AI development tools including Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf
• Automatic template saving system with comprehensive optimization history
The service combines cloud-based processing power with flexible deployment options to meet diverse workflow requirements.
Hybrid Architecture
Our platform operates using a hybrid architecture:
Cloud Infrastructure:
• Primary optimization engine hosted on enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure
• FastAPI backend deployed on Northflank with 99.9% uptime SLA
• PostgreSQL database via Supabase for template storage and user management
• All optimization processing occurs in our secure cloud environment
Local Bridge Component:
• NPM package acts as local proxy between MCP clients and cloud API
• No sensitive data processing occurs locally
• Bridge simply forwards requests to cloud infrastructure
• Local configuration stores only API key for authentication
Subscription Plans and Billing
We offer three subscription tiers with distinct usage quotas and features:
**Explorer ($5.99/month):** 20 optimizations via web interface only, basic support
**Creator ($12.99/month):** 200 optimizations (web + API), 1 API key, template saving, priority support
**Innovator ($24.99/month):** 450 optimizations, up to 10 API keys, unlimited templates, dedicated support
Billing is processed monthly in advance through Stripe. All prices are in USD unless otherwise specified.
Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled. You may cancel at any time through your dashboard.
Usage quotas reset monthly on your billing date. Unused optimizations do not roll over.
