LetRetro
5.9The retro tool that thinks with your team
LetRetro is a fast-shipping, AI-forward retrospective platform aimed at engineering teams rather than Scrum Masters. AI writes the board summary (key themes, action items by owner, a sentiment snapshot) and Pro trend analyses track blockers and burnout signals across retros; cards open as Jira, GitHub or GitLab issues; Voice Mode lets anyone speak a card straight into the right column; and an official MCP server lets Claude, Cursor and VS Code read and drive boards. Excalidraw-style Canvas boards sit alongside, all on flat pooled-seat pricing — $15/mo for up to 200 seats — rather than per user.

TeamRetro
8.8Retrospectives, health checks, estimations and standups in one suite
TeamRetro pairs structured retrospectives with longitudinal team health checks and planning-poker estimations, aimed at agile organisations running multiple teams under a coach or programme. An in-meeting AI assistant (trAI, still in beta) and a GA MCP server are included on every paid plan.
Full review →Summary
LetRetro scores 5.9 overall and is best for developer-leaning agile teams and startups that want AI-assisted retros wired into Jira, GitHub and GitLab, an official MCP server their AI clients can drive, and flat pricing that doesn't grow with headcount — and that don't need anonymous input, a shared timer, recurring retros or a procurement-grade security story. It offers a free tier.
TeamRetro scores 8.8 overall and is best for agile coaches and engineering managers running ongoing health-check programmes alongside sprint retros. It offers paid plans from $20.83/mo billed annually ($25/mo billed monthly) — Single Team, 1 team, 25 members.
LetRetro leads on value. TeamRetro leads on ease of use, retro toolkit, fun factor, AI & insights, integrations, open platform and enterprise-grade.
Across our eight scoring dimensions, TeamRetro edges ahead with an overall score of 8.8. That said, the right pick depends on your team — see the dimension-by-dimension breakdown below.

LetRetro — pros
- + Flat pricing — $15/mo Pro covers unlimited boards and teams within a 200 pooled-seat cap, so 24 users costs exactly what 4 do
- + AI is the product, not a bolt-on: board summaries with key themes, owner-sorted actions and a sentiment snapshot, 50 cross-retro trend analyses a month on Pro, and <strong>Voice Mode</strong> — hold Shift+Space, say a sentence, and it lands as a card in the right column
- + An <strong>official, MIT-licensed MCP server</strong> — one-command install, 17 tools, 11 clients, and its own component on the public status page — so Claude, Cursor or VS Code can read boards and file cards without a bespoke script
- + Dev-stack card linking is real and deep: Jira, GitHub and GitLab with inline issue editing, comments, MR/PR status, and one card linked across all three at once
- + Ships genuinely fast — AI summaries, MCP, GitLab, Canvas boards, 2FA, Voice Mode and CSV/Google Sheets board export all landed between June and September 2026, each documented in a changelog that matches the shipped product
LetRetro — cons
- − The integrations and comparison pages sell Linear, Asana, Confluence and Snowflake. The shipped app has setup pages for six connectors only — Jira, GitHub, GitLab, Slack, Notion and Google Docs. Verify anything you're depending on
- − Thin enterprise story: SAML is a line on the quote-only Enterprise tier, not something the shipped sign-in flow offers; no SCIM, no customer-facing audit log despite the homepage's <em>immutable audit trails</em> claim, and no LetRetro-held SOC 2 or ISO 27001
- − A bootstrapped team of four on the about page (the founder, one more engineer and two marketers) with negligible independent coverage and no support function behind an SLA. A durability risk for procurement whatever the shipping cadence
- − Retro basics the marketing promises aren't in the app: the templates and use-case pages advertise anonymous input, but every card shows its author and no setting hides it. There's also no card grouping, no shared countdown timer, no recurring retros, no async mode and no team agreements
- − No public REST API and no webhooks; the dashboard's API keys only authenticate the MCP server, which — like every integration — is Pro-only. Boards export to CSV (Google Sheets on Pro) and documents to PDF, Word, Google Docs or Notion; exports are capped at 5/mo on the free tier
TeamRetro — pros
- + Health checks and maturity models as a first-class module — custom dimensions, radar charts, trends across sprints
- + Retrospectives, health checks and planning-poker estimation on one subscription
- + SAML SSO, RBAC and US-or-EU hosting on <em>every</em> plan, not just Enterprise
- + GA MCP server, team-level API keys and HMAC-signed webhooks on all plans; 15 native agile-stack integrations plus Zapier and n8n
- + <em>trAI</em> in-meeting assistant (beta) on trial and paid plans, plus 18 in-meeting icebreaker games on every account
TeamRetro — cons
- − No free tier — 30-day trial, then a paid plan
- − The SOC 2 Type 2 report is Enterprise-only; lower tiers get the SOC 3 report instead
- − SCIM, IP allowlisting, domain capture and guest/observer roles are Enterprise-only, and audit logs are on request rather than self-serve
- − Cross-team insights, reports and programs (team-of-teams) require Enterprise
- − ISO 27001 is inherited from AWS, and hosting is US or EU only — no APAC region despite the Australian HQ
