How to Add a Project Brief for Manny in Project Settings

Give Manny your project's location, description, and scheduling constraints once, and it uses that context in every Manny conversation for that project.

Latest Update: 10-7-2026

The Project Brief lives in More > Project Settings > Project Details. It has three fields: Project location, Project description, and Other schedule requirements. Once saved, Manny factors this information into its answers automatically, no need to repeat it in your prompts.

  • Project location can be entered as an address or coordinates

  • Project description allows up to 500 words

  • Other schedule requirements allows up to 300 characters

  • See Getting Started with Manny for a general overview of Manny chat

Adding Your Project Details

  1. Open your project and go to More > Project Settings > Project Details

  2. Under Project Details, enter your Project location.

  3. Enter a Project description, up to 300 words. Be specific, for example note the project type, size, and any hard completion dates.

  4. Enter any Other schedule requirements, up to 250 words, such as work-hour restrictions or weather-related constraints.

  5. Click Save. A confirmation toast confirms your brief was saved.

How Manny Uses Your Project Brief

  1. Open Manny chat in the project.

  2. Ask a question that depends on project context, for example: "Given our site constraints, what's a realistic sequence for the exterior work?"

  3. Manny's answer reflects the location, description, and schedule requirements from your saved brief.
