Overview

Reetro is a lightweight retrospective tool with a genuinely free tier and a shipped app that runs well ahead of its own marketing site. Three board types — standard, phased (Reflect/Group/Vote/Discuss) and RoundUp, an async video, voice or text interview with AI-generated questions — sit alongside health checks, polls, a happiness calendar and an action tracker. AI meeting summaries, sentiment and emotion trends, auto-grouping and AI action items are quota-limited rather than paid-only, so Free gets a taste. SSO, the Scheduler and anonymous retros start on the $10/team Pro plan; data retention needs Pro Unlimited, billed at $49/month per organisation. ISO 27001 is claimed at vendor level; SOC 2 is listed as compliant, not certified.

Best for: Small to mid-sized agile teams who want a cheap, AI-assisted retro board — SSO, health checks, the Scheduler and anonymous retros at $10/team/mo, or $49/mo flat for the whole org — and who don't need an API or ClickUp/GitHub/Linear.

How Reetro describes itself

Reetro sells itself as a fun, easy and AI-powered retrospective tool — a free-forever plan as the front door, AI as the upsell. Every page header carries the same badge pair: "ISO-27001 Certified & SOC-2 Compliant".

"Fun, Easy & Awesome Retrospectives — AI-powered free retrospective tool, collaborate with your team and get better in what you do with a simple, powerful & beautiful tool."

The pitch stacks AI meeting summaries, sentiment analysis, card grouping and a "Reetro AI Bot" on top of health checks, polls and an action tracker. Enterprise messaging leans on a public trust center and an AI governance portal, and the ladder ends in a flat $49/month org-wide Pro Unlimited for buyers who outgrow per-team pricing.

Our take

Reetro's shipped app runs well ahead of its own marketing site. The app ships a third board type the website never mentions: RoundUp, an async video, voice or text interview with AI-generated questions. @mentions, PDF and XLSX export and a team-comparison view are live too, though the plan table omits them or says "coming soon". Mask Cards gives a proper blind brainstorm. AI is metered, not paid-only: Free gets one meeting summary, three auto-groupings and three AI action-item runs a month; Pro three, five and seven.

The gaps are real. No public API, no webhooks, no MCP. Slack and Teams are sold, but nothing in the shipped app connects them; Confluence and Trello are export-only. The "Reetro AI Bot" only answers product-help questions, and every icebreaker game links to a dead subdomain. ISO 27001 is claimed with no published certificate; the SOC 2 belongs to the host.

Best fit: a two- or three-team org that wants SSO, health checks and AI summaries for $10 a team, and will judge the product by the app, not the pricing page.

Pros

+ Genuinely free tier, no credit card — 3 teams, 9 members, 6 columns and 50 guests, plus quota-limited AI (1 meeting summary, 3 auto-groupings, 3 AI action items a month)
+ SSO, the Scheduler and anonymous retros all start on the $10/team Pro plan, confirmed by the app's own upgrade copy
+ Pro Unlimited is genuinely org-wide — the app bills it at $49/month per organisation, not per team
+ RoundUp collects async video, voice or text feedback with AI-generated, editable interview questions — a real async mode, not just a board left open
+ AI meeting summaries carry sentiment, emotion trends (joy/trust/fear/sadness) and participation metrics, and roll up into cross-team comparison views

Cons

− The marketing site understates the product: PDF and XLSX export, @mentions, link cards and comparative reporting are all live in the app yet tagged coming soon on the pricing page
− No public API, no webhooks and no MCP server — nothing can drive Reetro programmatically
− Slack and Teams notifications are sold, but the shipped app has no way to connect either; Confluence and Trello are export-only, a Word or CSV file plus a link to the other vendor's import instructions
− No playable icebreakers: the in-app 'Icebreakers & Games' tiles link to four game subdomains, none of which resolves any more
− No published Reetro-level SOC 2 Type 2 audit (the trust portal lists SOC 2 as 'compliant', ISO 27001 as 'certified'), and no SCIM
− Anonymity is paid-only, and the Pro Unlimited plan card still reads PER TEAM while the FAQ and the app both say per organisation
