TeleRetro

5.8

Agile retros you'll love

TeleRetro is a remote-first retrospective tool built around team engagement — animated GIF reactions, emoji reactions on notes, AI icebreaker questions, background music and a clean facilitation flow. Participants join by link with no account. It pairs retros with a Pulse Survey module for tracking team health between sessions, and prices per team rather than per user, aimed at small to mid-size agile teams who want retros that feel lively rather than mechanical.

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.

TeleRetro — pros

  • + A rich <strong>retro-native engagement set</strong>: GIFs that float across the board, emoji reactions on notes, background music during brainstorming, an AI icebreaker bot, and 50+ themed formats with their own backgrounds
  • + Participants join by link with <em>no account required</em> — the fastest path from invite to first note
  • + Clean facilitation flow: brainstorming mode, drag-and-drop grouping, Spotlight to focus the room on one note, facilitator-gated voting with a configurable vote count, and mood polls at both ends of the session
  • + Pulse Surveys track team health between retros — 16 fully anonymous templates, custom models, and a cross-team dashboard on the Business plan
  • + Flat per-team pricing with <em>no per-user charge</em> — £72/mo covers 3 teams, unlimited members and unlimited retros

TeleRetro — cons

  • − Slack is the only native integration; the in-app integrations panel offers Slack and Zapier and nothing else, despite Jira appearing on the vendor's comparison pages
  • − No way to schedule a future retro or set one to recur, and actions carry owners but <em>no due dates</em> — nothing links an action back to the idea that prompted it either
  • − AI never touches the board — Retro Bot generates formats and icebreakers, but there is no clustering, summary, sentiment or action extraction
  • − Export is thin: an emailed summary, a PNG of the summary screen, and an org-metrics JSON dump. No CSV, PDF or Excel
  • − No SOC 2 or ISO 27001 of its own (the certs cited are AWS's), no SCIM, no audit logs, and SSO is Enterprise-plan only

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
