EasyRetro
5.8Improve your team with fun sprint retrospectives
EasyRetro (rebranded from FunRetro in November 2020) is a long-running indie retro tool built around a fast drag-and-drop board and a 200-plus template library. 2026 added working AI — card grouping, board-column generation from a theme prompt and meeting summaries — plus numeric-scale and multiple-choice surveys, dashboard bulk actions, free PNG/CSV export and organisation audit logs.

6.4Lucid Software's whiteboard with the Lucid AI assistant and tight Lucidchart integration — voting, timers and facilitator tools start at the Team tier
Lucidspark is the whiteboard product from Lucid Software (makers of Lucidchart) — an infinite canvas with sticky notes, private-mode brainstorming, anonymous voting sessions, timers, the Lucid AI assistant (prompt-to-board, magic sort, board summaries) and bidirectional sync with Lucidchart for diagrams. Free and Individual get static dot voting only; the timer, private voting and facilitator tools start at the Team tier, and Breakout Boards plus the Lucid Cards sync to Jira/Azure DevOps/monday.com are Enterprise-only. Strong enterprise posture inherited from Lucid: SSO/SAML, SCIM, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001/27701/42001, FedRAMP Moderate, IRAP PROTECTED, GDPR, and US/EU/AU data residency.

EasyRetro — pros
- + Fastest setup of any tool we run: pick a template, share a link, participants join with no account
- + AI now does real work on the board — card grouping with reviewable merge suggestions, a meeting summary, and board columns generated from a theme prompt
- + Survey engine got serious in June 2026: single-choice, multiple-choice and numeric-scale polls with Team Health Check, Team Safety, mood and meeting-value templates
- + Flat per-team pricing with unlimited members — $60/mo covers three teams of any size — and PNG/CSV export went free in July 2026
- + Plainly still shipping: five changelog entries in 2026, most recently organisation audit logs in July
EasyRetro — cons
- − The health surveys are one question on one board — no health model, no cadence, no trend line across sprints
- − Integrations are export-shaped: Jira, Confluence and Trello take cards out, Slack only announces new boards, and there's no GitHub, Linear, Azure DevOps or calendar
- − No public API, no webhooks and no MCP server — automation stops at the export button
- − Vendor holds no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 (it leans on Google Cloud's), data sits in US Central with no EU option, SAML SSO starts at $90/mo, audit logs at $150/mo, and SCIM doesn't exist
- − Free plan is now 1 public board per month and 1 board total on the dashboard (archived included), with AI features excluded
Lucidspark — pros
- + Tight integration with Lucidchart — switch between diagram and whiteboard on the same canvas
- + <em>Private mode</em> works on every plan, free included: it hides sticky note contents and authors, and the facilitator can keep authors hidden permanently
- + Strong enterprise posture: SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001/27701/42001, FedRAMP Moderate, IRAP PROTECTED, PCI DSS, GDPR, SSO/SAML, SCIM, US/EU/AU data residency
- + Official Lucid MCP server is GA on every plan and shipping monthly — search boards, summarise them, generate synced Jira cards from Claude or ChatGPT
- + Lucid AI is included on every tier today, free plan included
Lucidspark — cons
- − Timer, private voting and facilitator tools start at the $10/user Team tier — Free and Individual get static dot voting and nothing else facilitator-shaped
- − Breakout Boards and the Lucid Cards sync to Jira, Azure DevOps and monday.com are Enterprise-only; audit logs need the paid Enterprise Shield add-on on top of Enterprise
- − No health checks, recurring retros, action carryover or cross-team rollup
- − AI is general brainstorming/summarising, not retro-aware — no sentiment, action-item extraction or trend insight across retros
- − Retro template depth trails Miro and Mural; the REST API needs a Team or Enterprise account and there are no outbound webhooks
