Recently moved in-house and struggling with how to document my contributions (keep a “brag list” if you will) for purposes of review season and eventual bonus/promotion/raise discussions. At a firm it was fairly easy to point to high billables, high profile deals, praise from particular partners or clients. Now I’m struggling because my work is so….day to day. Mostly negotiating typical sales contracts. Very few opportunities for visibility or high profile contributions if that makes sense.

That is definitely a risk. So you should be prepared to actually accept the other offer. It also depends whether your present company thinks they can reasonably be competitive with the other offer.
There have been studies/articles about this. It’s usually works but typically you’ll end up leaving within a year
I wouldn’t try that at my company. First, I doubt it would work and second, even if it did, it would negatively impact my future upward mobility. And it would be really awkward if it didn’t work but I still decided to stay.
If you’re underpaid you may consider requesting a raise and compiling publicly available salary info to support the argument. I imagine they’d get the hint that you are prepared to leave if you aren’t compensated fairly. Doesn’t mean they’ll give you a raise but helps you know where you stand in their eyes.
