Briefs is the essential app design tool built for a professional design workflow. Lifeless mockups don’t tell the entire story, but you don’t have time to build a prototype. We’ve been there, too. Your clients needed a clearer picture, so give them something to touch.

What is a brief?
∙ Describes a mobile app to others.
∙ Combines images, and interaction to articulate the essential function of an app
∙ A brief contains a timeline, with multiple scenes.
∙ A scene is a full-screen image that represents a visual state within the app
∙ Each scene contains one or many actors that control interaction
∙ Actors are images that can have defined actions.

Using scenes, actors, and actions as building blocks, you can quickly add a rich description to a series of images. Its more descriptive than a mockup, but less complicated than a prototype. Briefs is the perfect format to communicate a your intention to clients, developers and testers.

Works like you do.
∙ Work with your existing app mockups
∙ Breathe interaction into your lifeless buttons, navigation bars and menus
∙ Make adjustments and tweaks based on what you feel.
