Demonstration video showing how Brief integrates business context with coding workflows to help
AI
agents understand past decisions and requirements.

90%
of business context lives in chats, meetings, and email threads across collaboration tools.
Most
of it is never captured in a system of record.
3-5x
AI assistants fail more often when they lack context about past decisions, exceptions, and
the reasoning behind them.
20+ hrs
per week spent by teams searching across tools and docs trying to answer, "Why did we build
it this way?"
What is Brief?
Brief is infrastructure for your product context. It captures decisions and makes them
accessible to AI agents.
1. Web App
Where you view your Product Graph, search decisions, and see customer insights.
2. MCP Server
Plugs your product context into Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and other AI
assistants.
3. Integrations
Connects to Linear, Jira, Notion, Slack, Fathom, GitHub, etc. to pull in decisions
automatically.
How they work together
Your team works in the tools you already use (Notion, Slack, etc.). Brief's integrations
watch for product decisions and extract them automatically. Those decisions build your
Product Graph in the web app.
When an engineer codes in Cursor or Claude Code, the MCP server lets their AI assistant query
your Product Graph for context. The AI sees not just code, but why you built it that way.
How it works
Capture decisions - Brief reads your tools. When someone writes "we
chose Stripe because...", Brief extracts that.
Store and connect - Decisions live in Brief's database, searchable and
connected.
Query from IDE - Ask "why did we build payments this way?" and get the
actual answer.
From Idea to Feature
Ship at the speed you think.
You drew it on the whiteboard. Brief gets it built. No translation. No telephone game. What you imagined is what ships.
Your AI builds anything. Including the wrong thing.
End the game of telephone between product and engineering. Brief gives every engineer and AI agent access to product truth. Decisions, constraints, and context, on demand.
No. Brief isn't for tracking tasks. It reads your tickets and messages to find product
decisions (like "we're using Stripe" or "we tried feature X and customers didn't use it").
Then when you're coding, you can ask your AI assistant about those decisions.
How is this different from documentation?
Docs tell you what features exist. Brief tells you WHY you built them that way. Like "we
chose Stripe over building custom payments because we needed to ship fast" or "customers
asked for SSO but we deprioritized it for now."
Do I need to change my workflow?
No. Keep working like you do now. Brief reads those tools automatically and extracts
decisions.
What AI assistants does Brief work with?
Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, VS Code AI extensions. Basically any coding assistant that
supports MCP (the protocol for connecting tools to AI).
How long does it take to see value?
As soon as you connect your tools. Brief starts reading your old tickets and docs
immediately. Within a few minutes, you can ask your AI assistant questions like "why did we
build auth this way?" and get actual answers.
Stop building the wrong thing
For teams using Cursor, Claude, and Copilot who need their AI to understand not just what the code does, but why it exists and what constraints it serves.
