Like most software engineers/web devs, I wait until the last possible minute to write my end of year review, then spend half the time just trying to remember what I actually did. I know I ship stuff, I just can't tell you half of what it actually was. So I built something that connects to your GitHub/GitLab/Azure DevOps, pulls your commits and generates a structured breakdown of what you shipped and how to frame it for a review. Paste in your objectives and it'll tell you what's evidenced and what's missing and also recommendations on what to do next.
I think where this could be really useful and time saving is for engineering managers who sometimes don't have full awareness of what the people they're managing have actually done, especially if you've got 10 people across 5 teams.
First report's free if anyone wants to try it.

This hits close to home — the "what did I even do this year?" panic before every performance review is so real 😅
One thing I'd love to see: integrations beyond commits. A lot of a developer's actual impact lives in Jira tickets, Notion docs, code reviews, and Slack threads — none of which show up in git history. If Gitsprout could pull in tasks from Jira or Notion alongside commits, it would paint a much fuller picture of what someone actually contributed. Would make it genuinely useful for engineers who do a lot of cross-functional work, not just heads-down coding. Congrats on the launch!
