While working on Self-Manager, I envisioned an app that keeps me accountable and motivated — where I can add self-messages, inspiring quotes, images, and even videos. I wanted a system that not only helps plan the day but also makes reflection enjoyable and insightful. That's exactly what led to the AI Period Summary feature — your personal assistant for weekly and monthly reviews.

1. Why Weekly & Monthly Reviews Matter

Most productivity systems fail because people keep planning forward without taking a moment to look back. Weekly and monthly reviews help you:

• See your real progress.

• Identify what took most of your time.

• Celebrate wins and spot patterns that hold you back.

With Self-Manager, this process becomes effortless thanks to AI automation.

2. The Weekly AI Review

At the end of each week, open your AI Period Summary inside Self-Manager.
The AI will instantly scan your completed tasks, pending goals, and activity logs to generate a personalized weekly summary — highlighting:

• What you accomplished.

• Which projects advanced.

• What tasks were left unfinished.

Use this insight to reflect: What worked well this week? What needs more focus next time?

3. The Monthly AI Review

Your monthly AI review is like a helicopter view of your productivity.
It goes beyond individual tasks and helps you understand your overall patterns.

The AI analyzes:

• Long-term project consistency.

• Time allocation per area (work, personal, creative, etc.).

• Repeated habits or recurring blockers.

This makes it easier to set realistic goals for the next month and fine-tune your strategy.

4. Chat with AI About Your Data

If you prefer not to wait for the full summary, you can start an AI chat directly on the Period Summary page.
Ask it questions like:

• "What was my most productive week this month?"

• "Which projects took the most time?"

• "What should I focus on next week?"

The chat feature gives you instant, context-aware insights — helping you understand your own productivity data in seconds.

5. Fast or Thinking Mode — You Choose

All AI interactions on Self-Manager are streamed in real time, so you see answers appear as the AI works.
You can also choose between two modes:

• ⚡ Fast Mode — for quick insights and short responses.

• 🧠 Thinking Mode — for deeper analysis, perfect for end-of-month reflections.

This makes your reviews feel fluid, interactive, and engaging — not like reading a report, but like having a conversation with a smart assistant who understands your work habits.

6. Add Your Personal Touch

The AI summaries are powerful, but the human touch makes them truly meaningful.
After reading your summary, write a short reflection directly in your workspace:

• What made you proud this week or month?

• What will you improve next time?

• What goals are you excited to tackle?

Combining your own perspective with AI insights turns the review process into a motivating ritual — not a chore.

7. The Real Power of Reflection

When you consistently review your week or month, you begin to notice patterns that no daily planner can show.
Maybe you're more creative mid-week, or you tend to lose focus toward the end of the month.
With this awareness, you can make smarter decisions about your schedule and energy management.

Self-Manager was built to make productivity motivating, visual, and intelligent.
With the AI Period Summary, instant AI chat, and streaming answers, reflection becomes a natural part of your workflow — not an afterthought.

Start your next review today and let AI help you see the bigger picture, one week (and one month) at a time.
