A prompt improver is a tool that rewrites a rough prompt into one an AI model can act on. The ivee prompt improver is a Mac app that sits inside ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot: press Shift+Command+Space on the draft you were about to send and it returns a sharper version, plus a suggestion for which model to send it to.
It replaces ivee’s old Chrome extension. The request we hear most from teams is to upskill people on the tools they already have, Claude and Copilot, in a practical way that fits real work. This is the hands-on, in-the-moment version of that: you learn as you prompt, not in a separate course.
Short version: the ivee app is a free Mac app that sharpens every prompt you send to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot, in one keystroke. Download the ivee app and try it while you read. It is free. 82% of the suggestions the ivee app has made were accepted, from 4 September to 12 November 2026. On Windows? Join the waitlist.
What does the ivee prompt improver do?
It takes the prompt you were about to send and rewrites it with the context, specificity and format the model needs. A prompt improver is also called a prompt enhancer, and the job is the same: close the gap between what you typed and what you meant.
Context. The model does better when it knows who you are, what you need and why.
Specificity. Vague requests produce vague results, so the rewrite replaces “make it better” with what better looks like.
Format. A list, a table, two paragraphs or 150 words: the rewrite says which.
An example. You type “summarise this email”. The improved version asks for a summary of the email below in three bullets, covering the decision needed and the deadline, in a neutral tone. Same intent, far less guessing. For the fundamentals behind it, see our guide to writing prompts that actually work and Anthropic’s guidance on prompt engineering.
To get that rewrite on your own prompts, download the ivee app: type the prompt, press ⇧+⌘+Space, and it tightens the brief before you send it.
How do you use the ivee prompt improver?
You write a prompt as normal, press one shortcut, and read the improved version before you send it. There is no new tool to open and no tab to switch to.
Open ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Copilot and type your prompt the way you always do.
Press Shift+Command+Space.
Read the improved prompt and the suggested model.
Send it, or adjust it first. Prompting is still a back-and-forth.
Pay attention to what changes. After a few weeks you start adding the context yourself, which is the point. ivee is built to teach as it goes, so you need it less over time.
Does ivee help you choose the right Claude or ChatGPT model?
Yes. Alongside the rewrite, ivee suggests which model suits the task, so a quick question does not go to the heaviest model on your plan. Model choice is a cost decision, and Anthropic publishes its per-model pricing for anyone who wants to check the arithmetic.
If you want that model suggestion on every prompt, the ivee app suggests the best model for each query, so you stop spending premium plan limits on a simple question.
It is also a question people ask out loud. One AI decision maker in ivee’s August 2026 research put it this way: “Any tips on matching the right model to the right task to manage costs? How do I figure out if the lighter model is enough versus the pro one?”
The prompt matters as much as the model. In ivee’s August 2026 AI decision maker survey of 500 UK AI decision makers, a thin, under-specified prompt cost 14 times more on average than a well-loaded one, because of the back-and-forth needed to repair it.

Which AI tools does it work with?
The ivee app works alongside ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot. Teams rolling out Claude to all staff, or trying to get more from under-used Copilot licences, can use the same shortcut in both.
The ivee app works inside Claude and Copilot, so get the ivee app for Mac and use the same shortcut in whichever tool your team has rolled out.
How do you install the ivee app?
Go to the ivee download page on your Mac, follow the prompts and open the app. If you are on a phone, the same page lets you send the link to your Mac. Windows is not live yet: you can join the Windows waitlist from the same page.
Is the ivee prompt improver free?
The Basic plan is free, for anyone trying the prompt improver. Paid plans exist for teams, and the pricing page lists what each includes.
Can a whole team use it?
Yes. ivee has team access, so the prompt that works for one person becomes the way everyone does it, instead of each person improvising. That is the job an AI champion does by hand: find the good prompt, share it, repeat. Our post on what the AI champion role involves each month covers the manual version, and the app takes the repetition out of it.
Rolling AI out to a team also needs rules on data. Start with whether you can put company data into ChatGPT and who decides what in AI governance.
If you would rather upskill people in a room, ivee runs practical, hands-on AI training tailored to how your team actually works, and AI strategy days for leadership teams.
