About Brief
Summary
Brief builds a product-context layer for AI coding agents, giving them access to the decisions, requirements, and institutional knowledge that live across tools like Linear, Jira, Notion, Slack, and GitHub. Product and engineering teams use it to keep agents aligned with existing product intent rather than letting them build against stale or missing context. It replaces the manual work of re-explaining decisions to every agent and the rework that follows when agents build without that grounding.
Business model
Free tier to start, with paid plans implied by CLI and team-oriented tooling.
Go-to-market
Engineering and product teams at software companies adopt Brief through a self-serve CLI install and a free web app, integrating directly into the IDEs and collaboration tools they already use.
