EasyRetro
6.2Improve your team with fun sprint retrospectives
EasyRetro (rebranded from FunRetro in November 2020) is a long-running indie retro tool built around a fast drag-and-drop board and a 300-plus template library. 2026 added working AI — card grouping, meeting summaries with a sentiment gauge and board-column generation from a theme prompt — plus richer surveys with team templates and trend charts, an open-action-items panel on team boards, free PNG/CSV export and organisation audit logs.

EasyRetro — pros
- + Fastest setup of any tool we run: pick a template, share a link, participants join with no account
- + AI now does real work on the board — card grouping with reviewable merge suggestions, a meeting summary with an AI-estimated sentiment gauge, and board columns generated from a theme prompt
- + Surveys became a light pulse-check loop in 2026: numeric-scale and multiple-choice polls, team survey templates that auto-attach to every new board, and trend charts on the Analytics page
- + Flat per-team pricing with unlimited members — $60/mo covers three teams of any size — and PNG/CSV export went free in July 2026
- + Plainly still shipping: nine changelog entries in 2026, including an open-action-items panel that carries unfinished actions into the team's next board
EasyRetro — cons
- − Health checking is survey-shaped — a trend chart per survey, but no multi-dimension health model, radar or org-wide health view
- − Integrations are export-shaped: Jira, Confluence and Trello take cards out, Slack only announces new boards, and there's no GitHub, Linear, Azure DevOps or calendar
- − The API is one paid-only create-board endpoint; there are no webhooks, no read or export API and no MCP server
- − Vendor holds no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 (it leans on Google Cloud's), data sits in US Central with no EU option, SAML SSO starts at $90/mo, audit logs at $150/mo, and SCIM doesn't exist
- − Free plan is now 1 public board per month and 1 board total on the dashboard (archived included), with AI features excluded
RetroFlow — pros
- + Genuinely free with no paid tiers, no paywalled features and no account required to join a board
- + Per-board choice of <strong>Anonymous Mode</strong> (no attribution on any card) or Open Mode (names on cards), and nobody needs a signup or email to contribute
- + Eleven ready-made formats plus a Custom Board builder (2-6 columns, 7 palettes, 48 emoji) with reusable saved layouts
- + <strong>Unrestricted voting</strong> — no vote budget, no phase gate, and you can upvote your own cards; cards also drag between columns
- + PDF and Excel export of the finished board — the only route to getting your data out, and it works
RetroFlow — cons
- − No timer or phase controls — <em>still</em> nothing in the shipped app, and two timer requests raised in July 2026 sit unshipped as <em>Planned</em> on the vendor's own public roadmap
- − <strong>Desktop-only</strong> — every board route hard-blocks viewports under 768px with a 'Whoa, tiny screen detected' overlay, even though the marketing FAQ promises a fully responsive phone experience
- − No grouping of similar cards, no in-column reordering and no carry-over of previous action items; the 'Present' button is still badged SOON
- − No integrations, public API, webhooks or AI (nothing pushes to Jira, Linear, Slack or Teams), and no health checks, recurring retros, mood tracking or cross-team reporting
- − Solo-developer project with no support team, SLA, SOC 2, SSO or GDPR statement. Support routes to the founder's WhatsApp and LinkedIn DMs, and board creation still ships a 'Waking up server' screen for the free-tier backend's cold start
