OpenAI has begun rolling out a year-end review experience called ‘Your Year with ChatGPT’, an annual recap that is similar to Spotify Wrapped, by offering a personalised snapshot of how people used the service, reports Indian Express.
The feature is being introduced to eligible users in select markets, including the United States, as well as other English-speaking regions such as Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. OpenAI says the rollout is limited and depends on both account settings and usage history.
Your Year with ChatGPT is available to users on the Free, Plus and Pro plans, provided they have enabled the options to reference saved memories and chat history and have reached a minimum threshold of conversation activity. The company clarified that Team, Enterprise, and Education accounts are not included in the initial release.
OpenAI described the experience as intentionally restrained and respectful of user choice. The company said the feature is designed to be “lightweight, privacy-forward, and user-controlled,” emphasising that participation is optional and that the review will not automatically open for users. Instead, it will be promoted on the ChatGPT app’s home screen, allowing people to decide whether they want to view it.
Much like Spotify’s well-known year-end summaries, ChatGPT’s review uses bold visuals and playful framing to reflect individual usage patterns. The experience assigns users personalised “awards” based on how they interacted with the chatbot throughout the year.
Beyond labels and statistics, the feature also leans into ChatGPT’s creative side. The app generates a poem and an image inspired by a user’s most common topics and interests, turning a year’s worth of conversations into a more expressive recap. The result is meant to feel personal rather than purely analytical, highlighting how the chatbot fits into different aspects of a user’s work, learning or creative projects.
Access to ‘Your Year with ChatGPT’ is available through both the web version of ChatGPT and the mobile apps on iOS and Android. Users can also trigger the experience directly by asking ChatGPT for their year-end review, rather than navigating through menus.
In ChatGPT’s case, the recap also serves as a reminder of how deeply the chatbot has been woven into daily routines over the past year, from brainstorming and debugging to writing, learning, and casual conversation.
While the rollout is limited for now, ‘Your Year with ChatGPT’ marks a notable step in how OpenAI presents the relationship between users and its AI tools, offering a curated look back at a year shaped by human questions and machine-generated responses.
