Steps
Log within days of the win
Capture the work while numbers and names are still clear. Waiting until December is how blank docs happen.
Write situation, action, result
Situation: the problem or goal. Action: what you did, specific. Result: a number, user, revenue, latency, or stakeholder quote.
Export before calibration
Give your manager a document they can cite in the room. Puvio exports from the vault you already kept.
December panic doc versus a vault kept all year
| Piece | Panic doc in December | Vault logged when it shipped | What calibrators can use |
|---|---|---|---|
| When you write | The night before the packet is due | Within days of the win | Dates they can trust |
| Proof | Adjectives. Great collaborator. | Number, user, quote, link | A line they can read aloud |
| Who benefited | Missing or guessed | Named stakeholder or team | Someone they can ping |
| Export | A scramble in Google Docs | Puvio brag doc from the vault | A PDF your manager already has |
Situation: what problem or goal. Action: what you did. Specific. Not "collaborated." Result: number, user, revenue, latency, or a stakeholder quote.
Skip vague lines like "great collaborator" with no proof. Calibrators cannot use those. If the line would fit anyone on the team, it is not an entry yet.
Within days of the win. Memory decays. December panic docs are missing names, numbers, and who benefited.
Puvio is built for logging in about a minute while the work is still warm, then exporting when review season shows up. Wins is $5/month. Complete at $29 already includes it. puvio.app/pricing
A short document they can paste or print. One to two pages, not a memoir. Get it to them before they walk into the room. They argue in rooms you are not in. A PDF beats a speech they have to reconstruct.
Kenji Watanabe used a one-pager in a skip-level. The director quoted a migration metric. That is a different conversation than a raise, and it still needs receipts. Story: puvio.app/stories/skip-level-evidence
It will not invent a staff packet from a blank year. It will not negotiate. It stores what you logged and exports it. If you log nothing, you export nothing useful.
Promotion packets and raise talks reuse the same vault. The conversations are still separate. puvio.app/answers/how-to-document-wins-for-promotion
Dead: "Collaborated with design and engineering to improve onboarding." Anyone on the team could write that. Calibrators skip it.
Usable shape: "Cut onboarding time from X to Y for [who] in [quarter]. [Teams]. [Artifact]. Cited in [meeting]." Situation, action, number, who else saw it.
Lena Vasquez averaged about forty-seven seconds per log. She did not write the PDF in those forty-seven seconds. She captured the receipt. Polish happened in November. Export happened before December calibration. Story: puvio.app/stories/review-without-blank-doc
