Why Winsly · Brag-document apps
Winsly vs Prov: a quiet iPhone log, or the bar and the proof
Choose Prov for a quiet iPhone app: one sentence a win, turned into promotion-case, review and weekly-update briefs, from $6.99 a month or $149.99 once. Choose Winsly if you want your wins mapped to your manager’s bar, a case where every line shows its source, and a record that carries into a job search.

| Promotion case and review | Briefs written from your wins | A review case and self-review drafts (Pro), every line showing its win |
| Updates for your manager | Weekly updates | Manager updates |
| A colleague verifies a win | No | Yes, by email |

What Prov does well
- A native iPhone app built for speed: type or dictate one sentence and Prov does the rest. Winsly has no iPhone app; it runs in your phone’s browser.
- Quiet by design: no streaks, scores or badges. Your own words stay beside the polished version, so you can see what changed.
- It costs less, and you can pay once: $6.99 a month, $49.99 a year or $149.99 once in the US App Store (App Store), against $20 a month for Winsly Pro.
- A brief for each occasion: a promotion case, a performance review, a job interview and a salary negotiation.
- It keeps your log on your device first, and uses AI on a win only with your consent.
Where Winsly is different
- The bar in your manager’s words. Prov sorts wins into fixed categories. Winsly turns what your manager said the next level takes into a clear bar, maps each win to it, and shows what’s still missing.
- Every line shows its source. Each line of your review case, self-review and applications points to the win behind it, and is checked before you see it.
- Wins a colleague stands behind. Ask someone who saw the work to verify a win by email. Ask for references from the same record.
- Practice for the ask. On the Advisor plan, your advisor runs a CFO’s playbook on your record and lets you rehearse the promotion conversation, scored afterward.
- One record, every move. When the next level is somewhere else, the same wins find roles and write applications.
Who should choose which
- Prov if you want the quickest log on your iPhone, polished briefs when you need them, and a one-time price.
- Winsly if you want your wins proven against your manager’s bar, verified by colleagues, and carried into a job search.
- On your phone: Winsly runs in your phone’s browser, and you can log a win from the Claude app when you’re away from your desk.
