Kollabe

6.9

Agile meetings made easy — retros, standups and planning poker

Kollabe began life as a planning poker tool and now runs estimation, sprint retrospectives and icebreakers from one workspace. The retro board is deeper than its marketing suggests — drag-to-group with optional AI clustering, dot voting configurable per board or per column, a phase timer with audio alerts, a guided workflow with auto-advance, and action items carrying owner, due date, priority and a link back to the feedback card. Exports run to PDF, CSV, JSON, Markdown, HTML, JPEG and Confluence, with action items pushed to Jira, GitHub or Linear. Billing is flat per team space rather than per seat. There are no recurring retros, no health-check instrument and no compliance certifications.

Trune.io

4.1

Structured online retrospectives with team radar

Trune (formerly Fraankly) is an EU-built retrospective and team-feedback tool that runs a fixed four-phase session — silent writing, presenting, voting, actions — with 14 pre-built templates plus custom ones, anonymous cards, drag-to-group clustering, dot voting, action items with reminder emails, and team radars including the Spotify Squad Health Check. Hosted in Frankfurt with EU-only application data, available in five UI languages, and exports results to Excel, CSV or an emailed PDF.

Summary

Kollabe scores 6.9 overall and is best for small to mid-size agile teams running retros and planning poker who want one cheap, playful tool — and don't need health checks, recurring retros or a compliance story. It offers a free tier.

Trune.io scores 4.1 overall and is best for small EU-based agile teams that want a simple, <strong>GDPR-aligned</strong> retro tool with templates, grouping, voting, and team radars — and can live with a vendor whose app has not shipped an update since September 2025. It offers a free tier.

Kollabe leads on ease of use, retro toolkit, fun factor, AI & insights, integrations, open platform and enterprise-grade.

Across our eight scoring dimensions, Kollabe edges ahead with an overall score of 6.9. That said, the right pick depends on your team — see the dimension-by-dimension breakdown below.

Kollabe — pros

  • + Flat per-space pricing — $29/mo buys unlimited members, so three teams of eight cost $87/mo total
  • + Deeper retro board than the marketing implies: drag-to-group plus AI clustering, dot voting per board or per column, a phase timer with audio alerts, and a guided workflow that auto-advances when everyone marks ready
  • + Action items carry owner, due date, priority, comments and a link back to the feedback card — and push one-click to Jira, GitHub or Linear
  • + Official OAuth MCP server (vendor states 46 tools) and a documented REST API on every paid plan; exports to PDF, CSV, JSON, Markdown, HTML, JPEG and Confluence
  • + Unusually playful: synchronised meeting music, AI-generated backgrounds, kudos with confetti, drawings and stickers, and a 1,100-strong themed template library

Kollabe — cons

  • − No recurring or scheduled retros — every session is created by hand — and no Slack or Microsoft Teams integration for retros
  • − No survey-based health check: a Spotify-style board template, a handful of 1–5 pulse polls, and a Team Health score in the paid weekly Insights report that is computed from activity (engagement, action follow-through, blockers, kudos) rather than from asking the team
  • − Both paid tiers cap a space at <strong>5 facilitators/admins</strong> however many members it has; lifting it means an Enterprise contract
  • − No SOC 2, ISO 27001 or published GDPR posture; core data is hosted in Australia with no EU or US option, and AI features send content to OpenAI and Groq. SSO and SLAs are Enterprise contact-sales
  • − A one-person company whose founder is also building a second product, and no product update has shipped since 31 May 2026

Trune.io — pros

  • + EU/Frankfurt data residency and a GDPR-first posture — the FAQ states no application data is stored outside Europe
  • + Per-team (not per-seat) pricing: $19/mo covers unlimited members, and the free tier gives 5 sessions
  • + Native two-way Azure DevOps sync on the Enterprise plan — action items out as work items, Done status back in
  • + Team radars include the Spotify Squad Health Check plus fully custom radars
  • + Ships in five UI languages (English, German, Dutch, French, Italian) and exports to Excel, CSV or an emailed PDF

Trune.io — cons

  • − <strong>The product has stood still</strong>: the web app was last deployed in September 2025, the blog stopped in July 2024, there is no changelog, and the Android app is gone from Google Play
  • − No SCIM, SOC 2 or audit logs, and SSO only as a bespoke per-customer SAML setup — not enterprise-ready
  • − No AI: the code carries a truneGPT chat window, but nothing in the interface opens it
  • − Azure DevOps is the only native connector and is Enterprise-only (quote-based); everything else is a single one-way Zapier trigger
