OpenAI announced this Monday (22) the launch of the “Your Ano with ChatGPT” feature, a personalized retrospective that summarizes users’ interactions with the chatbot throughout 2025. The functionality is initially available for individual accounts on the free, Plus and Nova Zelândia.
The feature requires that the options for referencing saved memories and conversation history are enabled, in addition to a minimum level of activity in the year. Contas corporate, educational or business entities do not have access to the experience. OpenAI highlighted that the feature prioritizes privacy and user control, without automatic display or enforcement.
Availability and access
The summary appears on the home screen of the ChatGPT app for web, iOS and Android. Usuários can trigger the experience directly by asking the chatbot for “Your Ano with ChatGPT” or “Your Year with ChatGPT.” The rollout occurs gradually, with expansion to other markets planned, although no confirmed date for Brasil.
OpenAI reinforced that the tool is optional and lightweight, allowing users to choose whether they want to view or share the data.
Custom Retrospective Elements
The feature generates attractive graphs with statistics such as the most active day, total number of messages sent and most recurring themes in conversations. One of the highlights is the awarding of “prizes” or archetypes based on usage, such as “Debugger Criativo” for those who solve problems or develop ideas.
Additionally, ChatGPT creates a personalized poem inspired by the user’s interests and a pixel art-style image that represents the year’s key topics. Esses elements make the experience interactive and shareable, similar to what happens on platforms like Spotify.
Comparison with other retrospectives
The format follows the trend of popular annual roundups on digital services such as Spotify Wrapped, Apple Music Replay, and YouTube Recap. The difference lies in the focus on textual interactions and the use of chatbot memory to generate exclusive content.
OpenAI designed the functionality to be visually appealing, with animations and elements that encourage sharing on social media.
How the feature was developed
The experience uses conversation history and saved memories to analyze usage patterns throughout the year. The company designed the feature to be private, with no additional data storage beyond what is needed to generate the summary.
Users with limited activity receive only basic statistics, while more active profiles access the full package, including the poem and the AI-generated image.
Impact for individual users
“Your Ano with ChatGPT” allows people to reflect on how the chatbot has integrated into their daily routine, whether for productivity, learning or creativity. Muitos users are already sharing results on social networks, highlighting surprises with recurring themes or unexpected habits.
OpenAI plans future functionality expansions, possibly with more languages and markets, while maintaining a focus on privacy and personalization.
