What Is a Project Brief on Clutch?

A Project Brief is a guided tool that helps you define your business challenge and project requirements by answering a few guided questions.

The questions in our guided tool are designed to capture your project requirements, enabling you to create a customized brief that can be shared with multiple service providers to request quotes.

Service providers are more likely to respond and provide pricing when they know your requirements. This helps you move your project forward faster.

 


Where to find the Project Brief

You can access the Project Brief from several areas on Clutch, with the dashboard as the main hub for all projects.

How Does the Project Brief Stand Out From Other Clutch Tools and Resources?

Clutch offers several ways to connect with service providers. Our directory listings are sorted by sponsored providers and Clutch rank, while tools like ClutchAI help you quickly surface providers that fit your search.

The Project Brief goes further by guiding you through the entire process of defining and sharing your project. Unlike directories or ClutchAI, a Project Brief:

  • Walks you step by step through project scoping.
  • Helps you clearly outline your requirements upfront.
  • Matches you with providers best suited for your specific needs.
  • Instantly distribute your requirements to those providers so you can receive tailored responses faster.

With Project Briefs, you’re not just browsing options—you’re submitting a clear, detailed plan that helps ensure stronger matches and more productive conversations with providers.
