MUMBAI, India, June 16 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611055011 A) filed by Abes Engineering College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on April 30, for 'promptly: version control for the age of ai.'

Inventor(s) include Ayush Jain; Kshitiz Srivastav; Ms. Nepali Singla; and Dr. Pankaj Kumar Sharma.

The application for the patent was published on June 5, under issue no. 23/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a system and method for version control and optimization of prompts used in artificial intelligence applications. The system comprises a prompt repository configured to store multiple prompt versions with associated metadata including unique identifiers, commit messages, authorship, and timestamps, thereby maintaining a structured revision history. An experimentation engine executes predefined input messages across multiple prompt versions to generate corresponding AI responses, which are evaluated by a scoring module based on performance metrics including relevance, latency, and token usage. The results are aggregated to identify a best-performing prompt version with an associated confidence level. A control module enables promotion of the selected version to production or rollback to previous versions. The invention provides a scalable and collaborative framework that introduces version control and automated optimization into prompt engineering workflows, thereby improving reliability, reproducibility, and performance of AI-driven systems."
