Friday is when most leaders try to remember what they are owed.
One question does that work for you:
"Who owes me something this week, and what's already late?"
Then ask for the nudges. Brief drafts a short note to each person who is past due, in your voice, and leaves them in your drafts. You read them and send the ones you want.
Monday starts with fewer surprises.
Engineering, sales and legal have each picked up AI that speeds up their work. The leadership team, where the decisions get made, still follows its own work by memory.
On Monday our CEO, Larry Augustin, published Decision to Done: Leadership Is Next, the argument behind Brief.
He also sets out what comes next, including Team Edition, one shared record for a whole leadership team.
Brief is in Open Beta for executives in North America, free while in beta.
Our founders are in the Product Hunt comments all day. Ask them anything, or tell us what you would want Brief to watch for you.
Brief on Product Hunt: https://t.co/6CvyGkdwGy
Brief is live on Product Hunt today.
Brief exists to ensure what gets decided, gets done. It reads the email and chat where work gets handed out, keeps track of who owes what to whom, and tells you when a commitment goes quiet while there is still time to act.
The Open Beta is open to executives in North America with a Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 work account, free while in beta. Brief is private by architecture.
An engineering firm moves a client's design review by three weeks. Reasonable call, agreed in the room, everyone understood why.
It depends on one thing: the client signing the change order. That signature was due a week ago.
