GoRetro is a web-based platform built around the full set of Scrum sprint ceremonies rather than retrospectives alone. Its homepage positions the product for agile coaches, Scrum masters, product owners, engineering leaders, and project/program managers who want a single tool to run sprint retrospectives, planning poker estimation sessions, sprint capacity planning, sprint monitoring dashboards, and sprint reviews. At the core of the product are real-time collaboration boards: teams can create digital sticky-note 'cards' for reflection and feedback, sort and filter them, vote on priorities, and drag, drop, or merge cards during a live session. Facilitators can choose from 20 pre-built retrospective templates or build custom boards, apply facilitation controls, invite guest users without requiring sign-in, and run sessions with built-in timers. Feedback and discussion items can be converted directly into trackable action items with owners, due dates, and status, and boards can be exported to PDF, CSV, or clipboard. The product also includes 'Joker Cards,' described as AI-generated discussion prompts based on sprint data, plus happiness tracking and sprint-history analytics. Beyond retrospectives, GoRetro offers a sprint capacity calculator and an online planning poker tool for estimating work. A single Jira integration is emphasized as feeding real-time data into these sprint activities, and Slack integration is listed as a Premium-tier feature. GoRetro states it is SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified and GDPR compliant, and offers SAML single sign-on on its top pricing tier.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Covers the full sprint-ceremony lifecycle — retrospectives, planning poker, capacity planning, and sprint review — in one product rather than requiring separate tools.
Deep Jira integration is designed to feed real-time sprint data into retrospectives and capacity planning without manual data entry.
20 pre-built retrospective templates and customizable boards make it quick for facilitators to start a session.
SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certification plus GDPR compliance and SAML SSO (on the Organization plan) support security-conscious and enterprise buyers.
30-day free trial with access to all Premium and Sprint Pro features, and no credit card required to start.
Cons
Pricing is quoted per team per month rather than per seat, and the site does not clarify how costs scale for organizations running many teams.
The top-tier Organization plan has no published price — buyers must contact sales for enterprise pricing.
Planning poker and the sprint capacity calculator are reserved for the higher Sprint Pro tier rather than included in the base Premium plan.
GoRetro's own About page discloses little corporate background (no founding year, headquarters, or team size).
