Spreo is online whiteboard software purpose-built for agile teams, rebranded from Metro Retro (and formerly Ludi). It gives scrum masters, product owners, delivery managers, agile coaches, and engineering managers a shared visual workspace to run agile ceremonies such as sprint planning, retrospectives, backlog refinement, planning poker, story mapping, and daily standups. Core building blocks include sticky notes, private writing (so contributors add ideas without bias before revealing them), voting and prioritization, frames and zones for structuring a board, connectors and shapes for diagramming, timers, polls, and 100+ ready-made templates for common agile activities. Teams can track actions with owners and due dates directly on the board and sync work with Jira via a two-way integration. Spreo lists enterprise customers including Kayak, Meltwater, Gear4Music, XITASO, Lucca, and Ryd, and positions itself for teams running fully remote or hybrid agile workflows.

Key Features

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Purpose-built templates and facilitation tools (frames, timers, private writing) for agile ceremonies rather than a generic whiteboard
  • Two-way Jira integration keeps planning boards connected to execution without manual copying
  • Strong security posture for a collaboration tool: SOC2/ISO27001/PCI-DSS certified hosting, AES-256 encryption, EU-based data hosting, and SSO on paid plans
  • Free 30-day trial with no credit card required lowers the barrier to evaluate the product

Cons

  • Specific pricing is not published; teams must sign up or contact sales to see exact costs beyond the trial
  • Focused on agile ceremony use cases, so it is narrower in scope than general-purpose whiteboards like Miro or FigJam
  • SSO and cross-team collaboration are gated behind the Business tier, and the Business plan's invoice option requires a minimum of 20 annual seats
