Figma's whiteboard with AI sticky clustering, voting sessions and a $3 Collab seat — free tier caps at 3 boards

FigJam is the whiteboard product inside Figma — sticky notes, timer, music, expressive cursor stamps, voting sessions, an AI co-pilot that clusters and summarises stickies, and 300+ ready-made templates including community retro boards. Design and product teams already living in Figma get retros without buying a second tool, backed by Figma's SAML/SCIM, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and EU data hosting on Organization and Enterprise plans. Voting sessions, audio chat and no-account guest links all require a paid team.

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

FigJam scores 7.2 overall and is best for design and product teams already on Figma who want retros on the same platform as their design files, with playful engagement and AI clustering. It offers a free tier.

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.

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

FigJam — pros

  • + Cheap $3/user/mo Collab seat unlocks unlimited boards without a full Figma editor seat
  • + Free Starter tier includes real AI credits (150/day, 500/month), 300+ templates, the timer and music
  • + Same login and platform as Figma — zero friction for design-led teams
  • + Playful, engaging UX — stamps, emotes, high-fives, music, cursor chat — lifts retro fun factor
  • + Strong enterprise posture inherited from Figma: SAML, SCIM, activity logs, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, EU data hosting on Enterprise

FigJam — cons

  • No native action-item tracking, recurring retros or health checks
  • Anonymity is weak — votes reveal who voted once the session ends, and stickies always carry a name
  • Official connectors embed Figma files in Jira/Confluence/Linear/Notion rather than pushing action items out; GitHub-issue creation is a community widget; no Azure DevOps
  • Free Starter caps a team at 3 FigJam files and excludes voting sessions, audio chat and no-account guest links
  • Built primarily for designers — the canvas paradigm is fiddly for structured retros, and large boards get sluggish

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
