Free real-time retrospectives

The retro your whole team

Most retros die in the doc nobody opens again

You know the pattern. Half the team stays quiet. The loudest voice sets the tone. You fill three columns of sticky notes, snap a blurry photo — and by Tuesday, nothing’s changed. Same issues next sprint. So people stop bothering to show up.

We talk about the same problems every retro.

Only three people actually say anything.

Our action items vanish the second the meeting ends.

AKRetro fixes the reason retros lose the room: it makes participating effortless and makes follow-through visible.

Built for how your team really runs retros

The whole team contributes — not just the vocal few

Anonymous mode and simultaneous, real-time card entry give quiet teammates and remote folks equal airtime.

Distributed & hybrid sprints, one live board

Everyone on the same board whether they’re in the room or three time zones away. No screen-share, no “can you see my cursor?”

Action items that survive the meeting

Owners, due dates, in-app + email reminders, and a personal My Actions list — so improvements actually ship.

Every feature earns its place by getting your team to show up

No feature without an outcome. Here’s what each one actually does for you.

Everyone adds cards at once — the board feels alive, so nobody checks out.

Real-time collaboration

The quiet majority finally speaks up — you surface the issues that actually matter.

Anonymous mode

The team prioritizes in 60 seconds — no debating what to fix first.

Dot voting

Kills anchoring bias — first opinions don’t drown out the rest.

Hide-until-reveal

Retros produce change, not notes — the reason people come back next sprint.

Action items with owners & due dates

Assignees can’t “forget” — follow-through becomes the default.

In-app & email notifications

Start in the format your team already knows — zero learning curve.

5 templates + custom columns

Retros end on time — you keep the calendar and the invite.

Shared countdown timer

Discuss inline — decisions stay with the context, not buried in Slack.

Card comments

Keep proprietary retro data private — invite-only by default.

Access control & co-owners

Hand outcomes off to Jira or Confluence in one click.

CSV export

Built by people who sat through too many dead retros

AKRetro exists for one reason: to make the retro the meeting your team looks forward to — where everyone speaks up and the improvements actually happen. Run your first one and see the difference for yourself.

“Will my team actually use it?”

That’s the whole point of AKRetro. There’s nothing to install and nothing to learn — teammates click your link and they’re in. Anonymous mode gets the quiet people talking, real-time makes it feel like one room, and because action items actually get done, the team sees the value by retro #2. Adoption isn’t a hope — it’s designed in.

Questions, answered

The best time to fix your retro is this sprint

Every retro you run the old way is another set of action items that quietly disappears. You can have AKRetro live before your next one — it takes less time to set up than it took to read this. Start on the free plan; upgrade only when your team grows.
