Lucid Software's whiteboard with AI co-creation, breakout boards and tight Lucidchart integration

Lucidspark is the whiteboard product from Lucid Software (makers of Lucidchart) — an infinite canvas with sticky notes, voting, timer, breakout boards, AI sticky-note clustering and summary, and bidirectional sync with Lucidchart for diagrams. Strong enterprise posture inherited from Lucid: SSO/SAML, SCIM, SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, GDPR and HIPAA-eligible deployments.

Summary

Lucidspark scores 6.2 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.

Trune.io scores 3.9 overall and is best for small EU-based agile teams that want a simple, <strong>GDPR-aligned</strong> retro tool with templates, voting, and a lightweight team radar — and don't need SSO, AI, or cross-team rollups. It offers a free tier.

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

Across our seven scoring dimensions, Lucidspark edges ahead with an overall score of 6.2. 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
  • + Breakout Boards let you split a workshop or retro into parallel rooms
  • + Strong enterprise posture: SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA-eligible, SSO/SAML, SCIM
  • + Generous integration set: Jira, Slack, Teams, Confluence, Azure DevOps, Asana
  • + Free tier exists and is enough to evaluate the tool

Lucidspark — cons

  • No native anonymous voting — names always visible on stickies
  • No health checks, recurring retros, action carryover or cross-team rollup
  • AI features lag Miro and FigJam — clustering and summary are present but not as polished
  • Free tier is restrictive: 3 boards and 100 shapes/board limits real use beyond evaluation
  • Brand is best known for diagramming; retro template depth trails Miro and Mural

Trune.io — pros

  • + EU/Frankfurt data residency and GDPR-first posture
  • + Free tier covers 5 full-featured sessions, no card required
  • + Per-team (not per-seat) pricing keeps costs predictable
  • + Agility Health Radar gives a basic longitudinal view
  • + Native iOS/Android apps for hybrid retros

Trune.io — cons

  • No SSO, SCIM, SOC 2, or audit logs — not enterprise-ready
  • No AI features (clustering, summaries, action extraction, sentiment)
  • Direct chat integrations (Slack, Teams) only via Zapier
  • Light on facilitation extras: no parking lot, agenda planner, async mode, or drag-and-drop grouping
  • Reporting is limited to per-team stats; no cross-team or org rollups
