Can a weekly reflection do more for a career than a yearly review?
Olllo is a five-minute Friday ritual: three short prompts, your week recorded, a long memory of the work you did. Built for people who reach December and can't remember what they shipped in March.
Capture work while it's fresh.
Log wins, learnings, and rough notes the moment they happen. No daily streak to break.
Reflect for five minutes on Friday.
Three short prompts, your week recorded. The ritual is short enough to actually keep.
Read back the long arc.
Quarterly and yearly views auto-assemble from what you wrote. The full story is already there.
Private by default.
Your data belongs to you. Nothing leaves olllo without you choosing to send it.

- 06 Design System Across Web + Native Keeping a PWA, a Next.js web app, and an Expo native app visually consistent without a design team is a systems problem, not a components problem. Design systems
