Synthesized Project Brief: Why It Matters

The problem it solves

Product Clarity has always captured durable knowledge from your conversations into a project's AI Summary - a growing list of facts, decisions, and market intel. The issue: injecting that raw list into a new chat gave the agent a pile of overlapping snippets rather than a clear picture of the project.

The new Project Brief changes that by weaving all your captured notes into a single, well-structured narrative, grouping related themes, deduplicating overlaps, and preserving every distinct fact.

How it works in practice

• Generate. Open a project and head to the new Brief tab (now the first tab on the project page). Click Generate brief and the AI synthesizes your notes into a concise narrative with section headings.
• Injected into chats. Once a brief exists, it replaces the raw notes list as the background context for every new and existing chat tagged to that project, so the agent starts every conversation already understanding your project's story.
• Refresh. As new notes get captured from ongoing conversations, hit Refresh to regenerate the brief from the latest notes. The previous brief is saved to history automatically.
• Edit & clear. Polish the brief inline, or clear it to fall back to raw-notes injection until you generate a new one.
• Version history. Every regeneration and restore is snapshotted. Use the AI Summary's History control to browse and restore an older brief or notes snapshot.

Why this is better than a feature list

A feature list tells you what exists; the Project Brief tells you why it matters and how it fits together.

• Narrative over inventory. Instead of "we have notes on pricing, personas, and competitors," you get a story: "We're targeting mid-market insurers; pricing must support usage-based models; competitors X and Y lead on speed but lag on governance."
• Context that sticks. The brief becomes the stable context source an agent can read before a mission, describing intended outcomes and shared rules rather than just a bag of facts.
• Less repetition, clearer decisions. By deduplicating overlaps and grouping related themes, the brief reduces the cognitive load on both you and the agent, making it easier to spot gaps and contradictions.

Non-destructive by design

The brief lives in its own field and never overwrites your granular notes, your append-only AI Summary stays the durable source of truth, and the brief is simply a cleaner view of it. Clear or regenerate it any time without losing captured knowledge.
