Reetro

6.0

Fun, easy and AI-powered online retrospectives

Reetro is a lightweight retrospective tool with a genuinely free tier, a scheduler that auto-creates recurring boards, and AI-powered paid tiers covering meeting summaries, sentiment analysis, AI card grouping, customizable health checks and an action tracker. SSO, 2FA and audit logs start on the $10/team Pro plan rather than an enterprise tier. ISO 27001 is claimed at the vendor level; SOC 2 is described as compliance on SOC 2-certified infrastructure rather than a published Reetro-level Type 2 audit.

Summary

Reetro scores 6.0 overall and is best for small to mid-sized agile teams who want a low-cost, easy retro board with AI summaries, customizable health checks, SSO from the $10/team tier and Jira/Azure DevOps export — with a flat-rate org-wide tier if you outgrow per-team pricing. It offers a free tier.

ScatterSpoke scores 6.3 overall and is best for engineering orgs in Jira/Slack that want AI synthesis across many retros — or agent builders who need a survey backend over MCP. It offers a free tier.

Reetro — pros

  • + Genuinely free tier, no credit card — 3 teams, 9 members and 50 guests covers a 24-person org
  • + <strong>SSO (Google, OneLogin, Azure AD, Okta), 2FA and audit logs start on the $10/team Pro plan</strong>, not an enterprise tier
  • + Scheduler auto-creates the next retro board weekly or every 2–4 weeks with layout and settings pre-applied
  • + AI meeting summaries, sentiment analysis and automatic card grouping on paid, alongside customizable health checks, polls and a happiness index
  • + Trust center is actively maintained — policy pack, sub-processor list and an AI governance portal all published or refreshed in 2026

Reetro — cons

  • Free plan capped at 3 teams, 9 members, 10 active boards and 4 columns, with both anonymity and multi-voting paid-only
  • Pro Unlimited's own marketing is self-contradictory — the FAQ and plan table call it flat org-wide $49/mo while the plan card badge says PER TEAM with a 180-member cap
  • Team, comparative and monthly reporting are ticked on the paid columns yet tagged <em>coming soon</em> in the same table — verify the reporting story before you buy
  • On-premises is sold as a Pro Unlimited feature but the tooltip on that plan card says 'coming soon'
  • No published Reetro-level SOC 2 Type 2 audit (their trust center lists SOC 2 as 'compliant', not certified) and no SCIM
  • No public API, webhooks or MCP server; no GitHub/Linear; help-doc footers still read 2020–2021 and there's no public changelog

ScatterSpoke — pros

  • + Official MCP server on every tier, including Free — agents can create, distribute and query surveys
  • + AI theme extraction, issue detection, sentiment over time and adaptive AI-moderated interviews
  • + SOC 2 Type II since launch, with annual penetration testing
  • + 20+ retro formats, guided phases, and cross-team/program rollups

ScatterSpoke — cons

  • $814/mo for 3 teams of 8 on Business — 5 seats included, then $35/seat
  • Free tier is a single seat, so it can no longer run a team retro
  • No dedicated health-check model, team radars or psychological-safety survey
  • Integrations stop at Jira, Slack and Teams — no GitHub, Azure DevOps or Linear
  • The 3.0 pricing tiers never mention retrospectives; help-centre release notes stop at Sept 2024
