FigJam

FigJam is the whiteboard product inside Figma — sticky notes, timer, music, expressive cursor stamps, voting sessions, an AI co-pilot that clusters and summarises stickies, and 300+ ready-made templates including community retro boards. Design and product teams already living in Figma get retros without buying a second tool, backed by Figma's SAML/SCIM, SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and EU data hosting on Organization and Enterprise plans. Voting sessions, audio chat and no-account guest links all require a paid team.

FigJam pitches itself as "The Online Collaborative Whiteboard for Teams" — bundled inside Figma for design and product teams who already collaborate there.

"Define ideas, align on decisions, and move work forward—all in one place."

The free Starter plan gives a team 3 FigJam files, 300+ templates, the timer, music and 150 AI credits a day — but voting sessions, audio chat and no-account guest links all need a paid team. Unlimited boards start at a $3/user/mo Collab seat (annual; $5 monthly) granting full FigJam editing with view-only Figma Design, so facilitators skip the $16 Full seat. Organization and Enterprise layer on SAML, SCIM, activity logs and EU data hosting. The buyer narrative: "Figma is already your platform — why pay for a second whiteboard?"

FigJam is the most fun retro venue in this list. Stamps, emotes, high-fives, music and cursor chat carry engagement on their own, and the AI sort-and-summarise genuinely works — it clusters stickies by theme and drafts an action-item summary in one click. At $3/user/mo for a Collab seat, unlimited boards are cheap to stand up.

The gaps are the ones a whiteboard always has: no tracked action items, no recurring retros, no health checks, no cross-team reporting. The AI writes action items as a text block — no owners, no due dates, no carryover. Every official connector — Jira, Confluence, Asana, Linear, Notion, Trello — embeds a Figma file in the other tool rather than pushing action items out of it; the one widget that files GitHub issues from stickies is community-built. Anonymity is thin: votes hide during a session then reveal who voted, and stickies always carry a name. The free tier is tighter than it looks too — 3 files, no voting, no audio.

Best if Figma is already home. If it isn't, a dedicated retro tool buys you owners, due dates and carryover for similar money.
