FREE PLANNING TOOL
Build your first app brief
Turn the task you want to improve into a clear starting point for a developer. Leave unknowns open; this is a planning draft, not a quote.
What should your first version do?
Start with one audience and one useful outcome. For example, a local service customer could request an appointment and return to see whether the business confirmed it.
This tool runs in this tab. Your answers are not submitted, saved by this tool, or included in links. Copy or download the draft to keep it. Use general project details; leave out names, contact information, passwords, customer records, and payment details.
Your starting brief
This is your own draft. Review it before sharing. Open questions are listed below so they can be discussed before a scope or price is agreed.
Changing an answer does not change this draft until you select “Create my draft” again. Clearing answers also removes this draft from the page.
Decide what needs a conversation
A brief is useful when it distinguishes an essential task from a later idea. Unknown budget, sign-in, payment, and ownership details can stay as questions. A developer should clarify them with you before promising a price or delivery date.
Read what to include in a first brief and how to agree on scope and handoff. If you choose to contact Bay Area Apps, copy the draft into a project inquiry. Nothing is sent automatically.
