    Product brief template

    Write this before opening any AI builder. A clear brief gives you a working first version instead of a messy one.

    The brief

    • One-liner: “An app that helps [who] do [what] so they can [result].”
    • Users: who signs in and what each type of user can do.
    • Core flow: the 3–5 steps a user takes to get value.
    • Screens: list each page and what's on it.
    • Data: what needs to be saved (e.g. clients, projects, invoices).
    • Out of scope: what version 1 will NOT do.

    Example one-liner

    • “A booking app for yoga teachers so students can reserve and pay for classes from their phone.”

    Tip

    • Paste the brief into ChatGPT first: “What's missing or unclear? Ask me questions.” Then give the improved version to your builder.
