Estimioo

3.8

Free planning poker, retrospectives and standups for Scrum teams

Estimioo is a lightweight, browser-based agile-ceremony tool that bundles AI-assisted planning poker, a template-driven sprint retrospective board and async daily standups into one shared workspace. The product's centre of gravity is estimation, but the retro module has grown since launch: the vendor now lists a library of retrospective formats (Start/Stop/Continue, Sailboat, Mad/Sad/Glad, 4Ls, Starfish, Sprint Timeline and more) rather than a single fixed board. It's still a reflection-and-summary tool, not a deep facilitation suite with dot voting, grouping and owned action items.

Summary

Estimioo scores 3.8 overall and is best for small, distributed Scrum teams who mainly want fast, AI-assisted planning poker and async standups, and want a template-driven reflection board for retros rather than a full facilitation suite with voting, grouping and owned action items. It offers a free tier.

Retrium scores 4.6 overall and is best for scrum masters and agile coaches who want a focused, retro-only tool with strong facilitation guardrails and a built-in Team Radar. It offers paid plans from $39/mo.

Estimioo leads on value and AI & insights. Retrium leads on ease of use, retro toolkit, fun factor, integrations, open platform and enterprise-grade.

Across our eight scoring dimensions, Retrium edges ahead with an overall score of 4.6. That said, the right pick depends on your team — see the dimension-by-dimension breakdown below.

Estimioo — pros

  • + Genuinely cheap — flat $7/workspace/mo Team plan (not per-seat) and a usable free tier
  • + Fast, no-friction planning poker with multiple scales and hidden-until-reveal voting
  • + AI story-point suggestions and estimation-accuracy tracking, powered by Claude with zero data retention
  • + Guests join without signup via link or QR code — low overhead for distributed teams
  • + Three ceremonies (poker, retro, standup) in one shared workspace

Estimioo — cons

  • Retro board is reflection-and-summary only — no dot voting, grouping, anonymity, phase timer or action items with owners and carry-over, even with the expanded template library
  • Verified AI is estimation-focused; the advertised Claude retro summaries (mood, themes, action items) couldn't be verified hands-on
  • No Slack/Teams, Confluence, GitHub, Linear or Azure DevOps integrations; Jira is a paste-URL preview for poker only
  • No SSO, SOC 2, audit logs or published data-residency — not built for enterprise procurement
  • Free sessions expire after 1 hour and cap at 5/month; no recurring retros or persistent retro history

Retrium — pros

  • + Battle-tested five-phase guided facilitation flow
  • + Anonymous brainstorming and grouping by design
  • + Persistent team-room action plan that carries forward between retros
  • + Team Radar covers psychological safety and custom health checks
  • + Per-team-room pricing with unlimited users on every plan

Retrium — cons

  • No free tier; 30-day trial only
  • Integrations are thin beyond Jira Cloud and a <em>still-beta</em> Slack app
  • <strong>No AI features at all</strong> — no summary, clustering, action-item extraction or insights
  • No native Microsoft Teams, Azure DevOps, GitHub, Linear or Confluence integration
  • Public shipping cadence has slowed — no 2025 changelog or product blog activity visible
  • Retro-only scope; no planning poker, kudos, icebreakers or whiteboard
