Hey Everyone! I’m Aashni, the founder of HypeDocs. When I joined my last job, I had lost most of my confidence and felt imposter syndrome. My manager recommended I start a HypeDoc - a living list of all my achievements. I started tracking my wins and could immediately tell the positive impact it had on me. I knew my HypeDoc was more than just a Google Doc, so I started tinkering to make it more powerful: ✔️ Start tracking HypeDocs more - I used a spreadsheet so that I could sort and filter by categories. 🧑🏽‍🤝‍🧑🏿 Create an accountability group with coworkers to set time to update my HypeDoc, and create to celebrate our wins and support each other 🎉 Track all my wins whether they are personal or professional, big or small. Some examples include a global product launch, Advanced Deep Diver Certification, and learning new recipes. 🥅 Set goals like "get a promotion" and track wins towards those goals HypeDocs has increased my confidence and helped make sure I don’t let imposter syndrome stop me from doing what I enjoy. I hope others find the same confidence, happiness, and success by using HypeDocs as well. We have over a hundred users who all love HypeDocs, and have recently onboarded three businesses to use HypeDocs as well! 🎉 Benefits and Perks 📝 Track an unlimited number of achievements 🧘🏾‍♀️ Set your mission to help stay focused 🧑🏿‍🤝‍🧑🏽 Join a HypePod - bi-weekly accountability groups to update your HypeDocs, celebrate your wins, and hype each other ⏰ Receive weekly reminders about your own achievements Your Data and Privacy 🔒 Privacy is a priority!

Love it, so easy to use and something that everyone should give it a try. I am super excited about your launch 😄
Aashni Shah
@faruk_brbovic Thanks so much Faruk!

Love this! I was raised to be humble (southern US culture for ya), but now that I’m in tech, you gotta be HYPED ON YOURSELF. This product seems like a great way to track accomplishments for pitches, job interviews, and performance reviews—and just general self-worth & confidence. I can even see it being really useful for kids/teens!
Aashni Shah
@annableker OMG! I was also raised to be humble (Indian culture for ya ;))! Totally agree about needing to hype yourself, especially as a founder! Hopefully this helps you own the space as you keep building Talium!
Jake Schonberger
Wooot!! Well done @aashnisshah. 100% believe in this tool & have been amazed watching you grow it over the last couple of months. Also, thank you for teaching me how to celebrate the small wins. So important for so many people!
Aashni Shah
@jake_schonberger1 Thanks so much Jake! And for sharing HypeDocs with your community over on Premoney as well!
Ina Shah
I appreciate how easy and simple the app is to use. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you!!!😀
Aashni Shah
@ina_shah1 Thanks! So happy to have you on board!

It's such a needed thing today, just signed up. Getting started is super simple and I already started to hype :) UI is so appealing. I'm sure in a couple of weeks, I will be able to see a positive impact on myself. Already curious to see what'll be in the product roadmap because I see this as a journey :). Highly recommend! My best wishes @aashnisshah
Aashni Shah
@sam_b4 Thanks so much! I agree - this is definitely a journey and I'm always happy to get your suggestions as we build out more of the roadmap! Thanks for signing up!

When I moved abroad, I wanted to highlight all the UPS and positive achievements to help me get through the tough times. When I started using HypeDocs, it was a game-changer, because I was able to get sweet reminders in my inbox that always made me smile. Those reminders help me beat imposter syndrome when it comes to working as a female, underrepresented solo founder and also help me feel encouraged and empowered about my bold decision to live abroad. I'm also very proud of @aashnisshah who has been working on HypeDocs to empower others. She is a beautiful person, entrepreneur and I'm excited to see where things lead in the journey of HypeDocs. If you want to gain confidence or simply keep track of your awesome-ness, then check out HypeDocs. You'll be wondering why you didn't do it sooner. Great work Aashni!
Aashni Shah
@nicolexcaba Thanks so much for sharing your story Nicole! And thank you for the lovely words! It's been so incredible watching you and Avvinue grow! I'm happy if HypeDocs has helped with any of that ❤️
Bansi Shah
Absolutely love this product. It is a perfect reflective and confidence building tool not only for your professional life but also using it with my 2 teens who are able to easily track all their achievements big and small. I can see this coming in handy with all sorts of uses including university applications and job interviews. Love how easy it is and simple to use.
Aashni Shah
@bansi_shah Thanks Bansi! Absolutely - such a great way to track achievements as you get ready to apply for College or University, and even your first job! Hope your 2 teens find lots of use for it soon!

I started using Hypedocs last summer . Coming from an environment where there's a lot of pressure on us, for example academia or very strict families, we often forget that what we are doing is fine and that some of our achievements are actually very special. Hypedocs has helped me refocus when I needed it most, by reminding me what I've accomplished so far. I haven't used the function to set goals yet but I'll get on it. I can see this would be a very useful tool to use when in the job hunting process. For questions like "whats the best thing you've achieved" etc etc, having your hypes laid out like that can make it easier to answer. Thanks @aashnisshah, really nicely done !
Aashni Shah
@therikay You're so welcome! Thanks for being my original tester and making sure all the features worked before I officially launched it! You've always been such a powerful inspiration to me! I'm glad HypeDocs let's you refocus and remember all the things you've done so far!

Amazing work, @aashnisshah! Awesome seeing you launch. I wish I had hypedocs at the beginning of my career to remind me of my wins and now it's here!
Aashni Shah
@_justirma Likewise! I wish I had this earlier in my career too! At least you can use it as you continue building Cafecito!
Pavla Bobosikova
I love this product!! Thank you for cheering me up with the quick reminders - whenever I get overwhelmed or feel like I'm not progressing fast enough, I love getting these snappy notes to remind me how far I've gone!! Thank you @aashnisshah and HypeDocs !
Aashni Shah
@pavla_bobosikova So glad we could help! Also you are one of the most productive people I know! Here's to a future with many more snappy notes and reminders for both of our wins!
