Appraisal preparation

Walk into your appraisal with the year already written down.

Look At You Go prepares you for your annual appraisal or performance review by keeping a weekly, dated record of what you did and what changed. When the self-assessment form arrives, you pull from twelve months of real evidence instead of trying to remember it, and you can point to specifics when your manager asks.

The week-before scramble

Appraisal forms usually land with a deadline and no warning. Most people fill them in from memory, which means the last month dominates and earlier wins disappear.

Your manager then takes that summary into moderation or calibration, where ratings are compared across teams. Vague lines lose to specific ones.

How Look At You Go prepares you

Small weekly entries become a year you can actually describe.

  1. 01Record a 90-second update each week, by voice or text.
  2. 02Each entry is shaped into Context, Action, Impact and Proof, and dated.
  3. 03Before your appraisal, filter the year by objective or theme and lift the strongest evidence into your self-assessment.

From a loose note to evidence

Each entry is shaped around Context, Action, Impact and Proof: what was happening, what you did, what changed and what backs it up. Nothing is added that you did not say.

Before

Supported the team through a busy period.

After

Context: two colleagues left in Q3. Action: I picked up their client accounts and trained the new starter. Impact: no accounts were lost during the gap. Proof: client retention report and my manager's note in the October one-to-one.

One record, every review

The same entries feed your mid-year check-in, your annual appraisal, and later a promotion case or pay rise request. You write things down once and reuse them.

Private, and yours to keep

Your record is private to your account. There is no manager view and no team dashboard, and your employer cannot read it. You can export or delete everything at any time.

How AI is used

AI helps structure what you record and asks a follow-up when something is vague. It does not invent numbers, dates, employers or achievements, and anything it drafts is labelled so you can check it. How we use AI.

Questions

When should I start preparing for my appraisal?
Ideally at the start of the review year. Starting now still helps: even a few months of weekly entries beats reconstructing from memory.
Can I map evidence to my objectives?
Yes. Entries are searchable, so you can pull everything related to a given objective or competency when you write the form.
Will my manager see my entries?
No. Your record is private. You decide what goes into the appraisal.

You did the work. Keep the evidence.
