For students
Go on. Brag a little.
You have worked hard for your achievements. Do not keep them to yourself. Let your achievements do the talking — and let the people who were actually there back you up.
The point
You do more than you think. Prove it.
Two years of turning up to a club. The season nobody wrote down. The Saturdays at the shop. The tech week where you did lights. All of it counts, and almost none of it ends up anywhere — because by the time anyone asks, the teacher has left and the certificate is in a drawer.
Sport
A full season, not just the final
Volunteering
The Saturdays nobody wrote down
Award
The one that came with a certificate
Performing arts
Rehearsals, tech week, three nights
Leadership
Running it, not just being in it
Work experience
A week, a placement, or a Saturday job
Qualification
First aid, lifeguarding, grade five
Club or society
Two years of turning up
Project
The thing you built because you wanted to
Brags
Things you did.
Something that happened, on a date, that an adult who was there can confirm.
Skills
Things you are good at.
Their own “what you bring” list, in the same language UK schools and employers already use.
Kept apart on purpose — and linked. So when somebody asks “give me an example of teamwork”, you have one, with a date on it and a name against it.
Where to start
Start small. Brag big.
Small steps today. Bigger opportunities later. You do not have to backfill five years before this is useful — one entry with one confirmation on it is already more than most applications ever see.
Step 1. Add one thing
Step 2. Ask one adult
Step 3. Keep going when something happens
Step 4. Take the page with you
What you actually get
Your CV starts Before your first job.
A one-page brag sheet
For an interview, an application, or a conversation with a sixth form. Titles, dates, and who confirmed each one. You print it and put it on the table.
Named confirmations
Not a tick from us. A person — their name, their role, their organisation, and what they wrote about what they saw.
Somewhere to go next
Opportunities we have actually looked at before showing them to you — DofE deadlines, volunteering, competitions, work experience schemes. A short, checked list, not an endless feed.
Everything, exportable
The full portfolio, and a raw copy of all your data, free on every plan. If you cannot take it out, it was never yours. So you can.
What it is not
Not a social network. Not a game.
Nobody can find you. Nobody can message you. There is no follower count, no streak, and no number that goes up when you add more. If there is nothing to do today, it says so and leaves you alone.
No messaging. Ever.
There is no chat, no comments, no friend requests. An adult cannot start a conversation with a young person here, because there is nothing to start one with.
No student directory, no search.
Nobody can browse young people, filter them by school, or find your child. A confirmation only ever begins with the student asking.
No leaderboards, streaks or counts.
Volume earns nothing. There is no number to run up, so there is no reason to pad a record — which is precisely why the record is worth reading.
Nothing is public by default.
Sharing is off until it is switched on, one item at a time. Under 13s cannot share at all, and a parent can switch it back off.
No ads, no third-party tracking.
No advertising, no analytics scripts, no session replay, no heatmaps on anything a child sees. We are paid by members, not by advertisers.
Confirmers are never paid.
Not in cash, not in credit, not in a badge. Paying for a confirmation would turn somebody's word into a transaction, and the word is the entire product.
“Nothing to do today. Your record is up to date.”
That is a real screen. An app that manufactures things for you to do is an app trying to keep you on it, and we are not paid by the hour you spend here.
Go and get your Bragging rights.
Brags is not open yet. If you are under sixteen, an adult sets this up — send them this page. Otherwise put your name down and we will tell you when we open.
