Write the brief before
anyone writes the code.
ReqStudio turns a scattered Word document into a structured project brief — ten guided sections, unlimited pages, and a readiness score that tells you exactly what is still missing. It runs entirely in your browser.
Opens instantly. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for.

A peek at your brief
Ten sections. One live readiness score.
Illustrative preview with sample data — this is the Brief tab as you work through a project.
5Page Requirements
Every page in the build, with its purpose, calls to action and content needs.
Missing:Technical Requirements, Risks & Assumptions, Approvals
What ReqStudio does
Everything a brief needs. Nothing it doesn’t.
Ten guided sections
Overview, goals, audience, structure, pages, functionality, content, technical, risks and approvals. Fill them in any order — the brief is never blocked on a half-finished section.
A readiness score that means something
Weighted across every section, updating as you type, with the missing answers named. You always know whether a brief is safe to send.
Unlimited pages, fully specified
Purpose, audience, CTAs, content requirements, components, dependencies, SEO, accessibility and analytics — per page, with its own completeness bar.
No Save button anywhere
Every keystroke is written to local storage a moment after you stop typing, and flushed if you close the tab mid-sentence.
A report you can hand over
A clean preview with a sticky table of contents, collapsible sections and a print stylesheet. Print to PDF and send it.
Search, filter, sort
Find a project by client, tag or page name. Filter by status, type and priority. Pin the ones you live in.
How it works
From a blank page to a signed-off brief
- 1
Create a project
Name, client, type, dates, stakeholders. Thirty seconds, and no sign-up stands between you and it.
- 2
Work the ten sections
Answer what you know, skip what you do not. The outline tracks completion and names what is still required.
- 3
Send the brief
Preview the report, print it to PDF, and share it with the readiness score attached so nobody pretends the gaps are not there.
Privacy by architecture
Client requirements are confidential.
Treat them that way.
Most brief tools ask you to upload your client’s commercial goals, budgets and launch dates to somebody else’s server. ReqStudio has no server to upload them to.
No account
No email, no password, no profile. Open the page and start typing.
No server
Everything is stored in your browser. There is no database of your clients anywhere.
Works offline
On a plane, in a basement, on hotel wifi — it behaves exactly the same.
What you get
- Your client’s budgets, deadlines and commercial goals never touch a server.
- Nothing to breach, subpoena or sell — there is no database of your work.
- No vendor can lock you out, raise a price, or shut the product down on you.
What that costs you
- Clearing your browser data deletes every brief. There is no backup and no way to recover it.
- Briefs do not sync — they live on the one browser that created them.
- Print or export anything you cannot afford to lose.
This is the honest trade of a tool with no server. We would rather you knew it up front than discovered it later.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Is it really free?
- Yes. There is no paid tier, no trial and no upsell. There are no servers to pay for, because there are no servers.
- Where is my data stored?
- In your browser's IndexedDB, on the machine you are using. It is never uploaded, because there is nowhere to upload it to.
- What happens if I clear my browser data?
- Your projects are deleted along with it. That is the honest trade for a tool that never touches a server — print or export anything you cannot afford to lose.
- Can I use it on more than one device?
- Not yet. Projects live on the device that created them. Cloud sync is designed for but deliberately not built — the architecture already carries the fields it needs.
- Does it work offline?
- Completely. Nothing about ReqStudio needs a connection once the page has loaded.
- Who is it for?
- UX and product designers, business analysts, product managers and project managers — anyone who has to write a brief before anything gets built.
