ChatGPT Year-End Review Launched
OpenAI launched Your Year with ChatGPT on December 22, 2025—a personalized year-end review feature inspired by Spotify Wrapped. It provides a fun, reflective summary of how users interacted with ChatGPT throughout 2025, using data from chat history and memories.
Key Features and What It Includes
- Personalized Stats: Number of messages sent, total chats, busiest chatting day, and overall usage patterns.
- Top Themes: The three most prominent topics or categories from your conversations (e.g., coding, travel planning, creative writing).
- Awards and Archetypes: Playful "awards" based on your usage (e.g., "Creative Debugger" for frequent coding help) and an "archetype" comparing you to other users (e.g., "Navigator" or "Tinkerer," with percentages like "top 8.5% of users").
- Conversational Style Analysis: Insights into your habits, such as frequent use of em-dashes, prompt styles, or specific phrasing.
- Creative Elements: A custom poem summarizing your year, an AI-generated image (often pixel art) inspired by your topics, and sometimes light-hearted roasts or predictions for 2026.
- Visual Presentation: Colorful, shareable graphics in a Stories-like swipeable format.
The experience is designed to be engaging and social-media-friendly, encouraging users to share screenshots.
Eligibility and Availability
- Available to individual users on Free, Plus, and Pro plans.
- Not available for Team, Enterprise, or Education accounts.
- Currently rolling out in English-speaking countries: United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
- Requirements:
- "Reference saved memories" and "Reference chat history" options must be enabled (these are on by default for many users).
- Must meet a minimum activity threshold (exact number not disclosed; low-activity users get only basic stats).

How to Access It
- It may appear automatically as a banner on the ChatGPT home screen.

This is OpenAI's first official year-in-review for ChatGPT, capitalizing on the popularity of similar features from apps like Spotify, YouTube, and Strava. It's a lighthearted way to reflect on your AI interactions while boosting end-of-year engagement.
