Questions, answered

Business and specialist questions

The key details about submitting, browsing, privacy, credits and the three-specialist limit.

How much does it cost to submit a brief?

It costs $0 to submit and verify a brief. You only agree fees directly with a specialist if you choose to hire them.

Am I required to hire a specialist?

No. You can compare responses and decide whether any specialist is right for your project, with no obligation to hire.

How many specialists can unlock my brief?

A maximum of 3 approved specialists can unlock a brief. GrowthBrief may set a lower limit for an individual brief when needed.

Can specialists see my contact details immediately?

No. Your business identity, contact details and permitted attachments remain hidden until an approved specialist deliberately unlocks your verified brief.

Can specialists browse briefs without credits?

Yes. Approved specialists can browse available verified briefs without using credits.

When are specialist credits used?

Credits are used only when an approved specialist confirms an unlock. The exact credit cost and remaining specialist slots are shown first.

How do reviews work?

A business can submit a review after a specialist records a hired outcome. GrowthBrief moderates reviews before they become visible.

What happens if a brief is not suitable?

A specialist can leave the brief locked and use no credits. After an unlock, eligible credit return requests can be submitted for GrowthBrief to review.
