## DSPy: _Programming_—not prompting—Foundation Models

**Documentation:** [DSPy Docs](https://dspy.ai/)

[![Downloads](https://static.pepy.tech/badge/dspy-ai)](https://pepy.tech/project/dspy-ai)  [![Downloads](https://static.pepy.tech/badge/dspy/month)](https://pepy.tech/project/dspy)


----

DSPy is the framework for _programming—rather than prompting—language models_. It allows you to iterate fast on **building modular AI systems** and offers algorithms for **optimizing their prompts and weights**, whether you're building simple classifiers, sophisticated RAG pipelines, or Agent loops.

DSPy stands for Declarative Self-improving Python. Instead of brittle prompts, you write compositional _Python code_ and use DSPy to **teach your LM to deliver high-quality outputs**. Learn more via our [official documentation site](https://dspy.ai/) or meet the community, seek help, or start contributing via this GitHub repo and our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/XCGy2WDCQB).
