Contractors misunderstand deliverable requirements because initial briefs lack clarity

Teams assign work with vague requirements, then spend disproportionate time in revision cycles when contractors misinterpret scope. Email and document comments bury context, and contractors avoid asking clarifying questions to seem experienced. Existing tools (Google Docs, Figma comments) lack structured requirement capture tailored to non-tech work.
