Reviews

Structured reflection sessions — daily, weekly, and monthly — with templates, steps, and embeds

Reviews are structured reflection sessions tied to a cadence (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annual). Each review follows a template that defines the prompts you answer, and surfaces the tasks, projects, and external tools relevant to that period. The goal is simple: look back before looking forward.

The review loop

Every review follows the same rhythm regardless of cadence:

  1. Collect — The review surfaces what's in scope: tasks, calendar blocks, notes, and any embeds (Notion, Linear) defined in your template.
  2. Reflect — Work through the template's steps. Log accomplishments and disappointments; link them to projects or tasks.
  3. Decide — Use your answers and the Projects/Tasks panels to see what shipped, what's stuck, and what to prioritise.
  4. Commit — Turn decisions into action: update tasks, move items in My Tasks, plan the next period on Calendar or My Inbox.

What a review contains

  • Steps — Ordered prompts from your merged template. Each has a checkbox and a rich-text editor. Steps are badged Org or Personal so you know where they came from and who can see your response.
  • Accomplishments and Disappointments — Tied to the review's period and optionally linked to projects and tasks.
  • Projects and Tasks panels — Work in scope for the review's date range.
  • Embeds — External resources (Notion pages, Linear boards) defined in the template, shown as tabs in the right panel.

Cadences

  • Daily — One day. End-of-day or morning check-in.
  • Weekly — One week. Retrospective and next-week planning.
  • Monthly — One calendar month. Longer-horizon reflection.
  • Quarterly / Annual — One quarter or year, for strategic and goal-oriented reviews (if enabled).

Each cadence has its own default templates. When you create a review, the app merges your personal and organisation (and container) templates for that type into a single step list. See Templates.

Templates at a glance

Reviews are generated from layered templates: your personal template plus any organisation and container templates. The review interface combines them into one guided flow — personal steps first, then org, then container. Responses are step-scoped: org-step responses are visible to org admins; personal-step responses are visible only to you. Details in How templates merge and Responses and permissions.
