Retrium

Guided retrospectives and Team Radars for scrum and agile teams

Overall score
4.7

Low activity — verify before committing

Checked 3 August 2026. Retrium's help centre publishes one product-updates article per year; the series runs 2020 to 2024 and its last entry is dated 27 August 2024. The 2025 and 2026 articles do not exist (both return 404). The blog is reachable again after returning 503s at the previous check, but its newest identifiable posts date from 2022. The product is still sold and operationally supported: the status page shows active incident handling through 27 July 2026 and 100% uptime over the prior 90 days.

Overview

Retrium is a long-running, retrospectives-only tool that emphasises guided five-phase facilitation, anonymous brainstorming, voting, a persistent action plan, and Team Radar health checks for distributed teams.

Best for: Scrum masters and agile coaches who want a focused, retro-only tool with strong facilitation guardrails and a built-in Team Radar.

How Retrium describes itself

Retrium pitches itself as facilitated retrospectives that engage in a real discussion, aimed squarely at scrum masters and agile coaches, with a customer wall that leans on large engineering orgs — Adobe, Amazon, Siemens, GoDaddy, Etsy, Zapier.

"Retrium enables agile teams to have effective conversations, discover new insights, and generate action plans."

The site sells an opinionated five-phase flow — think, group, vote, discuss, wrap-up rating — and positions Team Radar as the recurring pulse alongside the retro. Beyond engineering it markets to marketing, sales, HR and finance. Pricing is per team room rather than per seat: $39 a room per month with unlimited users, plus an Enterprise tier pitched at 25+ teams.

Our take

Retrium does one thing and does it well. The five-phase flow is genuinely opinionated, brainstorming and grouping are anonymous by design, and the persistent team-room action plan survives between retros — a real edge over scratchpad-style boards. Team Radar is a credible health check: up to seven customisable spokes, anonymous 1-to-5 scoring, every past radar kept in history. Comparing radars over time is a manual read of that history, though — the help docs describe no built-in trend line.

The gaps are structural. There are no AI features anywhere — not on the homepage, the features page, or the trust center. The only API is an Enterprise-gated SCIM 2.0 endpoint for user provisioning, so retro data can't be pulled out programmatically; no webhooks, and export stops at CSV and TXT. Integrations are Jira Cloud plus a Slack app still labelled beta, with no Microsoft Teams. And the help centre's yearly updates series ends at August 2024.

Best fit: a scrum master who wants a focused retro tool plus a recurring radar, lives in Jira Cloud, and needs neither AI nor a Microsoft-stack footprint.
