Kollabe
5.5Agile 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 sync-back to Jira, GitHub, Linear and Azure DevOps in a flat per-space workspace. Recent additions include a Slack-based async standup flow, a public API and MCP server, and cross-ritual weekly reporting — though the retro module is still younger and less battle-tested than its estimation roots.

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
- + Direct sync-back to Jira, GitHub, Linear and Azure DevOps
- + Public API and MCP server access on Premium
Kollabe — cons
- − Slack integration is standup-only (no retro summaries/actions to Slack); no Microsoft Teams yet
- − No SOC 2 / no advertised GDPR posture — weak for enterprise procurement
- − No dedicated health-check, team-radar or longitudinal pulse feature
- − Solo-founder operation; SSO/SAML and SLA gated behind Enterprise contact-sales
- − Free tier caps meetings/month with 7-day history
TeamRetro — pros
- + Health checks with custom models, longitudinal tracking and cross-team reporting
- + Three modules in one suite (retros, health checks, planning poker)

TeamRetro — cons
- − No free tier — 30-day trial only, then a paid plan is required

- − ISO 27001 is inherited via AWS, not held directly
- − Data residency limited to US and EU (no APAC region)
