Briefly is an automated client brief tool for freelancers that replaces endless back-and-forth messages with a single link. It collects structured project details via a guided form and outputs a complete PDF brief plus an AI-powered opportunity score.
What is Briefly?
Briefly is a web-based tool that lets freelancers create a personalized link (briefly.app/b/your-name). Clients fill in a step-by-step form covering project type, budget, timeline, and custom questions. The tool then generates a structured brief with an AI score (0–100) that evaluates budget, deadline, and scope alignment. It was created by Hudayfa, a freelancer who wanted to protect his time from unpaid scoping.
Key Features
- AI Opportunity Score — Analyzes every submission against budget, deadline, and scope; returns a score (e.g., 87/100) with a label (good fit, negotiate, or pass).
- White Label — Replace all Briefly branding with your own logo, colors, and custom domain (e.g., brief.yourdomain.com). No Briefly mention on client-facing pages.
- Custom Questions — Add your own fields (e.g., "Do you have brand guidelines?") to capture project-specific requirements beyond the default form.
- Notion Integration — Connect your Notion workspace; every new brief automatically creates a page in your database with all details.
- Google Meet Integration — Generate a Google Meet link directly from any brief in your dashboard, ready for scheduling.
- PDF Export — Receive a professional, structured PDF brief for each submission.
- Live in 30 Seconds — Create your account and get a shareable link immediately; no credit card required.
Who is it for?
- Freelance web designers and developers who want to avoid vague WhatsApp or email exchanges before quoting.
- Branding and logo designers who need to confirm brand guidelines, redesign scope, and budget upfront.
