Self-review generator.

Paste what you did this review period, one line per item. A brag doc, a list from your notes, or commit messages all work. You get a draft sorted into Impact, Collaboration and Growth, with a reminder on every line that still needs a before-and-after.

It runs in your browser. Nothing you paste is uploaded, saved or tracked. There's no AI here either: it sorts and tidies your own words, so every claim stays yours.

How it sorts your lines

• Collaboration takes lines about people: mentoring, onboarding, reviews, interviews, design docs, leading or unblocking others.
• Growth takes lines about learning: courses, new tools, conferences, things you picked up.
• Impact takes everything else: what you shipped, fixed, sped up or made more reliable.
• Got it wrong? Start a line with impact:, collab: or growth: to put it where you want.
• Commit messages are tidied. Bullets, merge commits and prefixes such as feat: and fix(sync): are removed. Ticket IDs stay.

What the reminders mean

• [add the before and after] means the line has no number or visible change yet. "From 22 to 9 minutes" beats "much faster". If there's no number, describe a change someone could see.
• [say which part was yours] means the line starts with "we". Keep "we" for the team and "I" for your part.
• [say what changed] means the line starts with "worked on" or "helped with", which says you were there but not what happened.

Leave reminders on while you edit, then untick the box and copy a clean draft. For finished examples, see how to write a self-review, with examples for 10 roles.

Where this falls short

A generator can only sort what you remember, and most people remember the last month of a six-month period. The work that slips is the quiet kind: the outage you prevented, the review that saved a week, the dependency you chased for days.

Sill keeps that record as you go. It logs the tasks you finish, your releases and the blockers you resolved, with receipts like day 6, asked 3×, and on the Mac it reads your local git history (commit messages and times, never your code). When review season comes, Sill Pro drafts your self-review from months of that record, grouped by project, on your device, using Apple Intelligence where available.

Get Sill on the App Store. It's free for Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, including the daily standup and the set-time reminder. Sill Pro is an optional paid upgrade. No account, no server, no analytics.
