Scattered context
Tickets, PRs, docs, and Slack threads are everywhere. Connecting them back to a cohesive story of impact is manual and painful.
Built to engineer a growth motion
Workrail captures your engineering activity, organizes it into high-signal entries, and helps you improve continuously, not just at review time.



The problem
The daily grind erodes your career narrative. By the time reviews come around, the details of your best engineering work are lost in the noise.
Tickets, PRs, docs, and Slack threads are everywhere. Connecting them back to a cohesive story of impact is manual and painful.
Without structure, achievements look like simple tasks. "Fixed a bug" sounds different than "Resolved critical race condition affecting 20% of users."
You're coding every day, but are you growing? It's hard to see skill gaps or stagnation when you're deep in the execution weeds.
The solution
Workrail does not interrupt your flow. It captures work as it happens, organizes context, and builds a compounding growth asset for your career.

Trial includes forward-only sync (no historical backfill).
Yes. Workrail never uploads your source code. The CLI runs locally and only extracts metadata (timestamps, commit messages, diff stats) to build your career record.
About 2 minutes. You simply install the CLI via Homebrew or npm, run `workrail login`, and point it to your project directories. It starts working immediately.
No. Workrail sits alongside them. It integrates with your existing git workflow. You don't need to change how you code, just how you capture the value of that coding.
Trial accounts can sync new activity only (no historical backfill). Pro accounts can backfill up to 30 days. These limits are shown in-product and may evolve with plan updates.
You can export your data at any time. If you cancel, your account will remain active until the end of the billing period, after which it will become read-only for a grace period before deletion.
