What is ROIP?
ROIP, Return on Iterative Prompting, measures how effectively you work with AI across a whole conversation.
ROIP stands for Return on Iterative Prompting. It measures how effectively you work with AI across an entire conversation, not how well you write a single prompt.
Good AI work is iterative: you give direction, read the response, react to drafts and build toward a result over several turns. ROIP works out what kind of task the session is and what each prompt does, then grades each prompt on which of seven components it needed and gave: Direction, Context, Format, Constraints, Examples, Evaluation, and Task Decomposition. The session's ROIP combines those grades.
Only what the task needs counts, so a short prompt that gives everything its task needs scores 100.
