# Prompts, Topics, Personas, and Regions in Prefer

> How Prefer organizes tracked prompts by topic, persona, region, view, and tag, and how those units map to your plan's prompt slots.

Prefer organizes what it tracks into a short hierarchy of prompts, topics, personas, regions, views, and tags. Understanding these units makes the Prompts console and every filter obvious, and it explains how your plan's prompt slots are counted.

## The units

* **Prompt**: a specific query monitored across every enabled engine. Example: *"best CRM for small teams"*.
* **Topic**: a category cluster that groups related prompts. Example: *"CRM comparison"*.
* **Persona**: the buyer profile a prompt represents. Prefer applies persona weights when rolling up results by segment.
* **Region**: the geography a prompt is sent from. Every plan can track any of 197 countries. Each prompt x country combination uses one prompt slot, so the same prompt tracked in three countries uses three slots; engines never multiply the count. Enterprise prompt allowances are custom.
* **View**: a saved grouping of prompts you assemble yourself. Useful for reporting on a campaign, a persona, or a product line.
* **Tag**: an ad-hoc label you can apply to any prompt and filter on later.

## How prompts are created

<Steps>
  <Step title="Generated during onboarding">
    The onboarding wizard produces topics and roughly 30 prompts from your domain, category, and market. You review, rename, and enable them before launching.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Curated library">
    In **Monitor > Prompts**, click **Add prompts** to browse the curated library grouped by topic and intent, then select the ones you want.
  </Step>

  <Step title="AI assistant">
    The right pane of the Add prompts view is an AI assistant. Describe the buyer question you want to cover and it drafts prompt suggestions you can accept.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Manual entry">
    You can also paste in your own prompts one at a time or as a bulk list.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Swap freely, keep the history

You can enable, disable, or archive any prompt at any time. Historical results for archived prompts remain readable so you never lose a trend line, and reactivating a prompt resumes tracking on the next run.

<Tip>
  Group by **Views** in the Prompts console to see prompt lists like campaign folders. Group by **Topics** to see coverage per subject area at a glance.
