ChatGPT Launches “Your Year with ChatGPT,” a Spotify Wrapped–Style Year-End Review
Tue Dec 23 2025
ChatGPT has launched a new year-end experience called “Your Year with ChatGPT,” offering users a personalised recap of how they interacted with the AI over the past year. Inspired by the popularity of Spotify Wrapped, the feature reflects users’ habits, themes, and engagement patterns—this time through the lens of AI usage.
The feature is currently rolling out to eligible users in select markets, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
Who Can Access “Your Year with ChatGPT”
The year-end recap is available to users across Free, Plus, and Pro plans, provided certain conditions are met.
To be eligible, users must:
- Have chat history enabled
- Have saved memory features turned on
- Meet a minimum threshold of conversation activity
The feature is not available for Team, Enterprise, or Education accounts. According to ChatGPT, the experience has been designed to be privacy-forward, optional, and fully user-controlled.
What the Year-End Review Includes
Much like other consumer app recaps, “Your Year with ChatGPT” uses playful visuals and personalised insights to summarise user behaviour.
Depending on usage, the recap may include:
- Custom “awards” recognising patterns such as creativity, exploration, or problem-solving
- A personalised poem generated by ChatGPT
- An AI-created image inspired by the user’s most common topics or interests
- A high-level summary of how ChatGPT fit into the user’s work, learning, or creative process
Importantly, the recap focuses on how users interacted with ChatGPT, not on the specific content of conversations.
Optional, User-Initiated Experience
The feature is designed to be non-intrusive.
- It may be promoted on the ChatGPT home screen
- It does not auto-open or interrupt usage
- Users can choose whether to view it or ignore it entirely
The experience is available on:
- ChatGPT web
- iOS app
- Android app
Users can also manually activate it by simply asking:
“Show me my Year with ChatGPT.”
A Familiar Format, Reimagined for AI
By adopting a Spotify Wrapped–style format, ChatGPT is tapping into a familiar and emotionally engaging design pattern, this time applied to AI usage.
The move reflects a broader shift in AI products—from being purely functional tools to becoming more personal, reflective, and consumer-friendly. Instead of just answering questions or completing tasks, ChatGPT is now encouraging users to reflect on how AI has become part of their daily thinking, learning, and creativity.
Why This Matters
The launch of “Your Year with ChatGPT” highlights several larger trends:
- AI products are becoming habitual, not occasional
- Personalisation is emerging as a key differentiator in AI experiences
- User engagement is moving beyond productivity into identity, creativity, and reflection
As AI tools become more embedded in everyday life, features like this signal a future where AI doesn’t just help people do things—but helps them understand how they work, think, and grow.
Final Thoughts
“Your Year with ChatGPT” may be playful, but it marks an important moment in the evolution of consumer AI. It shows that AI platforms are beginning to treat usage patterns not just as metrics—but as stories worth reflecting on.
As more people rely on AI for learning, ideation, and decision-making, year-end recaps like this may become a new way to measure not just productivity—but how humans and AI collaborate over time.
