SHEPHERD CLIENT BRIEF

Client briefs with the evidence in the open.

Shepherd turns the source material your team provides into a cited draft, marks unsupported statements as open questions, and waits for a person to approve it.

Evidence, without theatre

A brief you can inspect.

Sources provided by your team → Cited draft and open questions → Human review and approval

Illustrative example — fictional company and invented source material. Not a customer result.

Source excerpt

The proposed scope covers discovery, research synthesis and a messaging workshop.

Decision owner

Priya Shah.

Open question

Budget is not confirmed in the supplied sources. Shepherd left this field open for a person to resolve.

A deliberately bounded workflow

Sources. Draft. Human decision.

  1. 01Ground approved sources

    Your team chooses the material Shepherd may use.

  2. 02Draft and cite

    Material statements stay connected to visible evidence.

  3. 03Review and approve

    Unsupported gaps stay open until a person resolves them.

Company Brain, carefully bounded

One source-grounded workflow first.

Shepherd builds source-grounded workflows for recurring knowledge work. Client Brief is the first. “Company Brain” describes our long-term direction, not functionality available today.

Shepherd drafts; your team decides.

  • It does not contact clients.
  • It does not approve facts.
  • It does not act on a draft.
  • Statements without supporting evidence remain open questions until a person resolves them.
  • It is not a chatbot for every task, a DIY agent builder, an employee replacement, or an enterprise search/compliance suite in v1.

Fit

Built for recurring agency briefing work.

For founder-led UK agencies with 5–30 people, supplied source material, and a named human reviewer.

Non-fit

Not autonomous work.

Not for unsupported factual generation, client contact, automatic sending, employee replacement, or a general-purpose agent builder.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered plainly.

Does Shepherd send work to clients?

No. Shepherd drafts a brief for internal review. A person decides whether it is correct and what happens next.

What happens when a source does not support a statement?

Shepherd leaves it as an open question instead of filling the gap with plausible text.

Is the sample a customer result?

No. It uses a fictional company and invented source material to demonstrate the intended workflow.

What is included in the pilot?

The proposed pilot covers one workspace, one briefing workflow, up to five named users, up to eight source packs and eight draft briefs, onboarding, four weekly review sessions, and support with a two-business-day response target. Final commercial and legal terms are confirmed in writing before payment.

Does the pilot renew automatically?

No. It ends after 30 calendar days. Continuing requires a separate written order.

Is Company Brain available now?

Client Brief is the first bounded workflow. Company Brain is the longer-term direction, not a claim that universal company knowledge or integrations are available today.
