Kollabe
5.6Agile meetings made easy — retros, standups and planning poker
Kollabe began life as a planning poker tool and has extended into retrospectives and standups — the estimation side remains the centre of gravity, with retros and standups added as adjacent rituals rather than the headline product. It bundles icebreakers, anonymous input, AI summaries and action-item sync-back to Jira, GitHub and Azure DevOps in a flat per-space workspace, and retro history exports in bulk to CSV or JSON. Recent additions include a Slack-based async standup flow, a public API and MCP server, and cross-ritual weekly reporting. Some retro mechanics the marketing asserts are not corroborated outside the vendor's own pages — verify the board before committing.

Kollabe — pros
- + Flat per-space pricing — unlimited team members on Premium ($29/mo)
- + Bundles retros, standups, planning poker and icebreakers in one tool
- + No-signup join links lower friction for ad-hoc participants; ease of use rates ~5.0/5 across 31 verified third-party reviews
- + Retro action items become real Jira and GitHub tickets — confirmed in independent user reviews, not just vendor copy
- + Bulk export of retro history to CSV or JSON, plus one-click Confluence pages; public API and MCP server on Premium
Kollabe — cons
- − Slack integration is standup-only (no retro summaries or actions to a channel); no Microsoft Teams
- − Solo-founder operation with no SOC 2, ISO 27001 or published GDPR posture; SSO/SAML and SLA sit behind Enterprise contact-sales
- − No health checks, team radars or longitudinal pulse — no way to track team trends across sprints
- − Several vendor-listed retro mechanics (independent dot voting, drag-to-group, AI grouping) are absent from the changelog and could not be corroborated
- − Free tier caps meetings/month with 7-day history and no data export; carrying actions between retros is paid-only
RetroTeam — pros
- + Tight, opinionated retro flow — capture, AI group, vote, act — with a timer on every stage
- + AI grouping suggestions are accept/reject per card, not applied over your head
- + Flat plan pricing: $30/mo covers 5 teams and 50 users, well under per-seat rivals
- + Participants join by link with no account required
- + Org-wide action dashboard with owner, status and due date, plus one-way Jira links
RetroTeam — cons
- − Jira is the only integration — no Slack, Teams, GitHub, Linear or Azure DevOps, and no public API or webhooks
- − No health checks, kudos, or longitudinal team-pulse tracking
- − Four built-in templates only; the custom builder fills the gap, but there's no template library
- − No SSO, SCIM, SOC 2 or audit logs, and hosting is US-only with no EU residency option
- − AI is credit-metered — 50/mo on Premium, 150 on Pro, then an upgrade or a one-off credit top-up
