SprintRetro

5.9

Jira-native retros with real sprint data

SprintRetro is an Atlassian Forge app from Agile Pulse that runs sprint retrospectives inside Jira Cloud. It pulls live sprint metrics (velocity and predictability, scope change, carryover, cycle time, second-by-second burndown) into the retro board itself. A major June 2026 release widened it into a continuous-improvement workspace: an infinite whiteboard with visual templates, anonymous team-health pulse checks with cross-sprint trends, an on-demand AI facilitator, and an action dashboard that quality-scores every action. Both Marketplace listings are Cloud Fortified. The free app still covers unlimited users, but a paid Pro app now carries custom templates, unlimited grouping and AI sprint summaries.

Trune.io

4.3

Structured online retrospectives with team radar

Trune (formerly Fraankly) is an EU-built retrospective and team-feedback tool that runs a fixed four-phase session — silent writing, presenting, voting, actions — with 14 pre-built templates plus custom ones, anonymous cards, drag-to-group clustering, dot voting, action items with reminder emails, and team radars including the Spotify Squad Health Check. Hosted in Frankfurt with EU-only application data, available in five UI languages, and exports results to Excel, CSV or an emailed PDF.

Summary

SprintRetro scores 5.9 overall and is best for scrum teams already living in Jira Cloud who want retros, a whiteboard and real sprint metrics on one board — and are happy for everything to stay inside Jira's walls. It offers a free tier.

Trune.io scores 4.3 overall and is best for small EU-based agile teams that want a simple, <strong>GDPR-aligned</strong> retro tool with templates, grouping, voting, and team radars — and can live with a vendor whose public site is currently offline and whose app has not shipped a release in a year. It offers a free tier.

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

Across our eight scoring dimensions, SprintRetro edges ahead with an overall score of 5.9. That said, the right pick depends on your team — see the dimension-by-dimension breakdown below.

SprintRetro — pros

  • + <strong>Real Jira sprint data inside the retro</strong> — velocity and predictability over five sprints, scope change, carryover tagged with how many sprints an issue has slipped, cycle time per status, and a burndown that records every individual point change
  • + The action loop is the best part: actions link back to the idea that triggered them, carry forward with duplicate protection, get an AI SMART quality score with a one-tap rewrite, and can be pushed into Jira as issues
  • + June 2026 added a genuine infinite whiteboard — stickies, shapes, frames, tables, connectors, live cursors, follow-a-teammate, Tenor GIFs, private mode, a synced board timer, PNG/print-PDF export, and <em>board import from Miro or Mural</em>
  • + Anonymous Team Health pulses across seven dimensions, with cross-sprint trends overlaid against committed-vs-delivered and carryover — the health-vs-delivery view is rare at this price
  • + <strong>Cloud Fortified</strong> and Bugcrowd bug-bounty on both listings, and the free app still covers unlimited users on a Jira site

SprintRetro — cons

  • Jira Cloud only — every participant needs a Jira licence, and there is no Slack, Teams, Confluence or standalone web app, nor any public API, webhooks or MCP server
  • <em>The free tier is narrowing.</em> Today: 3 basic templates, no custom template creation, limited polls and grouping, no AI sprint summary. Published as planned: ~3–5 sessions/month and under 8 participants per session
  • No SOC 2 or ISO 27001 of its own — the trust centre's own entries attribute both to AWS, Atlassian Cloud and Render, not to an Agile Pulse audit. No SCIM, audit logs or data residency, and the app is not "Runs on Atlassian" certified
  • No async mode, no recurring or scheduled retros, and no cross-team or org-level health rollup — the Pro usage report covers adoption, not outcomes
  • Export is whiteboard-only (PNG or print-to-PDF); column-mode retros still have no board export beyond pushing an action into Jira

Trune.io — pros

  • + EU/Frankfurt data residency and GDPR-first posture — even the truneGPT assistant runs on an EU-hosted function
  • + Per-team (not per-seat) pricing: $19/mo covers unlimited members, and the free tier gives 5 full sessions
  • + Native two-way Azure DevOps sync — action items out as work items, Done status back in
  • + Team radars include the Spotify Squad Health Check plus fully custom radars
  • + Ships in five UI languages (English, German, Dutch, French, Italian) and exports to Excel, CSV or an emailed PDF

Trune.io — cons

  • <strong>trune.io has been returning a WordPress fatal error on every page since late July 2026</strong> — pricing, sign-up and support included. Only the app at app.trune.io still loads
  • No SSO, SCIM, SOC 2, or audit logs — not enterprise-ready
  • Both native mobile apps are 404 on the App Store and Google Play, and the web app has not been redeployed since September 2025
  • AI stops at truneGPT, a ChatGPT-4 chat assistant — no clustering, summaries or action extraction
  • Azure DevOps is the only native connector and needs the pricier Professional tier; everything else is a single one-way Zapier trigger
