When I sat down to type my first year-end review in Dec 2025, I realized I couldn’t clearly remember everything I had done from Jan to Dec. Important work. Small wins. Efforts that mattered. They were all… blurry. That’s when I decided my 2026 resolution would be simple: log better, every single day. I started with an Excel sheet on Jan 2nd. Two days in… I forgot about it. Because honestly, it was hard to keep up with. (Fun fact: I take my Snapchat streaks quite seriously, which made me realize I needed streaks for my work too.) I needed a brag book. So I built https://bragbooks.online/ over a weekend. It’s meant for anyone who goes through performance reviews and either doesn’t log at all, or logs in places like notepads or excel sheets (like I did). A simple way to stay consistent, build that habit, remember your work, and walk into reviews with clarity. One thing that mattered a lot to me while building this was privacy. Your work logs often contain sensitive company context. BragBooks uses a zero-knowledge design & zero-retention AI processing (on demand), your entries are encrypted before they leave your device, and the platform never has access to your content. If you check it out and feel something’s missing, I’d genuinely love your feedback, there’s a form right on the site. And if it helps you even a little, happy bragging 🙂
