Different projects all compete for attention. So people schedule status update meetings to borrow focus for an hour.

Brief holds leadership priorities with reasons. You can stop having project update meetings.

good news: I’m gonna live forever
People who drank more coffee had less body fat, less visceral fat, and more lean mass than less-frequent or non-drinkers. The biggest benefit was seen at 5 or more cups per day. And for men, every extra cup per day was associated with a ~10 ng/dL higher total testosterone. Higher coffee intake was also associated with better glucose and insulin regulation in men. This was an observational study, but mechanistic and experimental evidence actually supports coffee's benefits on metabolic and hormonal health. I'm willing to believe there's a real link here rather than draw a conclusion such as "coffee drinkers live healthier lives in general."

We all drop threads. An email gets buried. A ticket gets ignored. It happens.

Use Brief. Let the agent find the doc. Pull the decision. Draft the reply.

The future of work probably looks like one product builder with a swarm of agents.

But that solo setup has a blind spot. No one person can spoon feed company history or direction to agents quick enough. Brief fills that gap. It feeds agents the decisions and reasons via ask_brief.

imagining an engineer asking for help on this in standup

couldn’t have said it better myself
the right way to use model capabilities is not to ship 10x more features to prod it's to spend more time understanding your users, trying experiments, building prototypes, learning about things you don't understand so that you can ship things that actually work

One engineer runs agents on every ticket. Another opens a chatbot when stuck.

I think the all-in side only wins when agents know company decisions. Brief holds those decisions with reasons attached.

Join a PM role and request GitHub. It's nonstandard. You hit IT. Weeks pass.

The company-approved AI tool already has access. It can scan repos and knows why decisions happened. On day one, ask what the auth service does. You get the current answer immediately.

Or ask @usebrief
Replying to @GergelyOrosz
When it’s trivial to build, and takes days, at most, to build such a feature, deciding what not to build is equally important. Or deciding when to change strategy. This part is probably a lot more interesting to think about: why not build before? Why build now? What is the logic in either approach? Now do the same questions for features in the product you build
