Lucid 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, clustering, summaries) and bidirectional sync with Lucidchart for diagrams. Voting, timers and facilitator tools start at the Team tier; Breakout Boards and the Jira/Azure DevOps card sync are Enterprise-only. Strong enterprise posture inherited from Lucid: SSO/SAML, SCIM, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001/27701/42001, FedRAMP, IRAP, GDPR, and US/EU/AU data residency.

Slack/Jira retro accountability — app no longer responds

Sprintlio was a retrospective tool built around action follow-through — Slack and Jira flows so action items didn't die on a board once the meeting ended. As of 3 August 2026 the product looks gone: the app host returns a Cloudflare 520 error, the marketing site was last built in May 2023 and now tells search engines not to index it, and there is no sign-up, log-in or pricing link anywhere on it.

Summary

Lucidspark scores 6.4 overall and is best for engineering and PM teams already on Lucidchart who want sticky-note retros and brainstorming on the same platform — and whose security review favours a SOC 2 / ISO 27001 vendor. It offers a free tier.

Sprintlio scores 2.7 overall and is best for nobody today — the app doesn't load. This entry exists for people who find the name in an old comparison, a stale directory listing or a procurement spreadsheet and need to know what happened to it. It offers paid plans from $50/user/mo.

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

Across our eight scoring dimensions, Lucidspark edges ahead with an overall score of 6.4. That said, the right pick depends on your team — see the dimension-by-dimension breakdown below.

Lucidspark — pros

  • + Tight integration with Lucidchart — switch between diagram and whiteboard on the same canvas
  • + <em>Private mode</em> hides sticky note authors until the session ends, and a voting session can be set fully anonymous
  • + Strong enterprise posture: SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001/27701/42001, FedRAMP, IRAP, GDPR, SSO/SAML, SCIM, US/EU/AU data residency
  • + Official Lucid MCP server is GA 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

  • Voting, timers and facilitator tools start at the $10/user Team tier — the free plan's three boards can't run a facilitated retro
  • Breakout Boards and the Lucid Cards sync to Jira/Azure DevOps are Enterprise-only
  • No health checks, recurring retros, action carryover or cross-team rollup
  • AI is general brainstorming/clustering, not retro-aware — no sentiment, action-item extraction or trend insight across retros
  • Retro template depth trails Miro and Mural, and the REST API needs a Team or Enterprise account

Sprintlio — pros

  • + Action items pushed into the Jira backlog with owners and due dates, then chased in Slack — follow-through <em>was</em> the product's reason for being
  • + Slack-native flows: recaps, due-date reminders and notifications delivered into the channel
  • + Narrow and focused — a retro tool, not a retro module bolted onto an all-in-one suite

Sprintlio — cons

  • The app host (retro.sprintlio.com) returns a Cloudflare 520 — the product did not load on any path, from either vantage point, when checked 2026-08-03
  • Marketing site last built 2 May 2023, newest blog post September 2020, and it now carries a <em>noindex, nofollow</em> tag — the vendor has de-indexed its own site
  • No sign-up, log-in, pricing or contact link anywhere on the site: there is no way to become a customer, or to reach the vendor and ask
  • Capterra and other directories still present it as available at $50/user/mo with a free trial — none of that is obtainable
  • Even as it stood in 2023 the surface was thin: no AI, no structured health-check model, no cross-team reporting, and Jira and Slack were the only integrations
