How BRD and SRS Documents Power Your Plans

The BRD focuses on the business and user perspective. Syntera generates it by analyzing your request and extracting:

• • Project objectives and success criteria
• • Target users and their needs
• • Feature requirements with priorities
• • Business rules and constraints
• • Acceptance criteria for each feature

The BRD is written in non-technical language so stakeholders can review it without engineering context.

The SRS translates business requirements into technical specifications:

• • System architecture and component design
• • API specifications and data models
• • Technology stack decisions
• • Security and performance requirements
• • Integration points and dependencies

SRS Example Excerpt:

## Data Models
- User: id, email, password_hash, name, created_at
- Project: id, name, description, owner_id (FK: User)
- Task: id, title, status, project_id (FK: Project)

## API Endpoints
- POST /api/auth/register - User registration
- POST /api/auth/login - User authentication
- GET /api/projects - List user projects
- POST /api/projects/:id/tasks - Create task

The SRS gives the Programmer agent precise specifications to work from, reducing ambiguity during implementation.

Both documents go through an approval flow before the plan is generated:

• • Syntera generates the BRD and SRS
• • You review both documents
• • Approve, edit, or request regeneration
• • Edited versions are tracked with version history
• • Once approved, the Planner generates the implementation plan

You can toggle requirements generation on or off. For simple tasks, you might skip them. For complex projects, they are invaluable.

Every revision to the BRD or SRS is stored with version tracking. This means you can:

• • Compare the current version to any previous version
• • Roll back to an earlier version if a revision went wrong
• • See who created each version (agent or user)
• • Track how requirements evolved during the project

Version history is especially useful for follow-up requests where requirements evolve over multiple conversations.

Once approved, the BRD and SRS feed directly into plan generation. The Planner uses them to:

• • Break features into ordered implementation tasks
• • Identify dependencies between tasks
• • Estimate complexity for each step
• • Prioritize based on business requirements
• • Map tasks to the right subagent specialties

BRD and SRS documents are the bridge between your idea and Syntera's implementation. They ensure nothing gets lost in translation, give you a review checkpoint before code is written, and create a versioned record of what was agreed upon.
