Retro Rabbit
4.4Slack-first retrospectives with async note capture
Retro Rabbit is a Slack-native retrospective tool that lets teams capture notes throughout the sprint from Slack or the web app, then runs the retro on a synced board with drag-and-drop grouping, voting and assignable action items. The CarrotIQ AI layer is gated to the Pro AI plan. No public changelog and no visible feature change since April 2025 — ask for a roadmap before committing.

ScatterSpoke
6.3AI copilot for team feedback
ScatterSpoke is an AI feedback platform that turns retrospectives, standups and surveys into themes, sentiment and prioritised action items — and, since ScatterSpoke 3.0, exposes the whole survey lifecycle to AI agents over an official MCP server.
Full review →Summary
Retro Rabbit scores 4.4 overall and is best for slack-centric agile teams that want to capture retro notes continuously through the sprint and run lightweight live or async retros without leaving chat. It offers paid plans from $30/team/mo.

Retro Rabbit — pros
- + Genuine Slack-first workflow — notes get captured in Slack throughout the sprint, not just at retro time
- + Reduces recency bias by collecting feedback continuously instead of in a 5-minute silent write
- + Simple, opinionated UX with drag-and-drop grouping and dot voting
- + CarrotIQ covers grouping, action-item suggestions and retro summaries on the $40/team/mo Pro AI plan
- + Flat per-team pricing with unlimited users, and CSV/XLSX/PDF export on every tier including Starter
Retro Rabbit — cons
- − Slack is the only chat/issue-tracker integration — no Jira, Teams, Confluence, GitHub, Linear or Azure DevOps
- − No health checks, team radars or longitudinal trend reporting
- − No org-level dashboards, cross-team rollups or action kanban
- − No public API, webhooks or MCP server — data leaves only as a file export
- − Enterprise controls are thin: SSO is Enterprise-tier only, no SCIM, no audit logs, and the privacy policy carries no GDPR or CCPA commitments
ScatterSpoke — pros
- + Official MCP server on every tier, including Free — agents can create, distribute and query surveys
- + AI theme extraction, issue detection, sentiment over time and adaptive AI-moderated interviews
- + SOC 2 Type II since launch, with annual penetration testing
- + 20+ retro formats, guided phases, and cross-team/program rollups
ScatterSpoke — cons
- − $814/mo for 3 teams of 8 on Business — 5 seats included, then $35/seat
- − Free tier is a single seat, so it can no longer run a team retro
- − No dedicated health-check model, team radars or psychological-safety survey
- − Integrations stop at Jira, Slack and Teams — no GitHub, Azure DevOps or Linear
- − The 3.0 pricing tiers never mention retrospectives; help-centre release notes stop at Sept 2024
