Phase 3 of 5: Impact
What's the single most impactful thing you shipped this cycle?
The output
A draft that reads like you wrote it.
First-person, specific, grounded in your actual examples. No hollow phrases, no AI slop: every sentence is traceable to something you told it. Choose concise, standard, or detailed. Click any section to revise it inline.
- 3–4 sentence opener strong enough for a promotion packet
- Impact bullets built from your actual numbers
- Values section written from examples you gave, not invented
- A growth section with real depth, not one vague sentence
- Goals that read confident, not aspirational fluff
Executive Summary
This cycle I focused on two high-leverage initiatives with lasting impact on system reliability and team velocity. I led the authentication infrastructure migration, cutting login latency by 40% and eliminating a recurring class of on-call incidents, while shipping a shared data pipeline abstraction that unblocked three dependent teams.
KEY CONTRIBUTIONS & IMPACT
- Delivered auth migration ahead of schedule: p99 latency from 340ms to 190ms, ~$60k/yr in compute savings
- Shipped data pipeline abstraction, resolving a 6-week blocker for mobile, growth, and data teams
- Mentored two junior engineers through production incidents; both now own independent services
How it works
Answer focused questions
5 phases, 18 questions. Prompts designed to surface the specifics that matter: impact metrics, technical depth, growth, values. The things that separate strong reviews from generic ones.
We write your draft
Claude takes your answers and generates a first-person self-review grounded entirely in what you actually did. No filler, no buzzwords.

What they say
Don't let a weak write-up undersell a strong year.
"I've always hated writing self-reviews. I'd spend hours staring at a blank doc. This gave me a full draft in under ten minutes. Edited it slightly, submitted it. Done."
"The engineering manager questions were exactly right. I always struggle to separate my impact from my team's. The prompts forced me to articulate both, and my manager said it was the clearest review I'd ever submitted."
"I used concise for a mid-cycle check-in and detailed for my annual. Both read like I actually wrote them. Not AI slop. That was the bar I was worried about clearing."
