Show HN: 2025 Failure Wrapped AI-Generated Year in Review for Tech Failures

https://unwrappedyear.forwardmanager.com/
1•ukituki•2h ago
What it is: A web app that generates a personalized "year in review" for your tech failures. Answer a short quiz about your year (startup attempts, crypto losses, unlaunched projects, etc.), and it uses Google Gemini to create a shareable card with stats like your "burn rate," "global rank," and achievements.

Backstory: I was reflecting on 2025 and realized I had more failed, half-baked or 85% ready but never releasd projects than successful ones. Spotify Wrapped celebrates wins, but there wasn't a way to celebrate (or at least laugh at) failures. So I built this over a weekend.

What's different: - No signup required - just answer questions and get your results - AI-generated content — each summary is unique based on your answers - Self-deprecating humor — it roasts you, but in a way that's relatable - Shareable cards — download or share on social media - Built on Cloudflare Workers + Pages — serverless, fast, and cheap to run

Tech details: - Frontend: React + Vite - Backend: Cloudflare Workers (serverless function) - AI: Google Gemini API - Database: Cloudflare D1 (optional, for user count tracking) - No authentication — everything is client-side except the AI generation Try it: - Visit the link, answer a few questions, and get your personalized failure wrapped. You can choose between "Gentle Vibes" or "Brutal Roast" modes.

Would love feedback on the questions, AI output quality, and whether the humor lands. Also curious if others find this cathartic or just depressing.
