    Brag doc templates.Pick your role.

    A brag doc is a private running list of what you've shipped and influenced, so your work isn't invisible, and your record isn't either. Each template below is structured against the criteria most ladders actually grade on. Free to download. Edit it however you want.

    Brag Docs

    A private running log of what you've shipped — so promo time isn't a memory test.

    Self-Reviews

    The narrative your manager asks for when the work needs to show up on paper. Reflective, structured, calibrated.

    Promotion Packets

    The formal submission for the promotion committee — your case, your manager's letter, your evidence.

    Snapshots

    A periodic inventory for solo builders: tools tried, projects shipped, lessons learned, the stack as it stands today.

    Indie Builders

    The template is the manual version

    These templates exist for people who want to fill in the brag doc themselves. There's a faster path. Bloomly is a career journal for iPhone that writes the brag doc for you from thirty-second daily entries. Same shape as the templates above (your numbers, your names, your dates) handed back at review time without a blank page in sight.
