Easy online retrospective in Slack

Run your sprint retrospective on a schedule without leaving Slack. Pick a question template, collect feedback from a distributed team, vote and group it, then turn the takeaways into action items connected to Jira. The improvements actually get tracked instead of forgotten by the next sprint.

Free for 3 users. No credit card required. Runs in Slack.

Trusted by 600+ engineering teams worldwide

The team adds feedback on their own time.

Anonymous by default, so people say what they actually think without it being tied to a name.

The top takeaway becomes a tracked action item.

Group related feedback, vote on what matters, and connect the result to a Jira issue so it gets done.

What it does

A retrospective that ends in action, not another forgotten doc

Most retros stall because feedback gets collected and then nothing changes. Troopr keeps the whole ceremony in Slack and connects the takeaways to Jira, so the next sprint actually improves.

Set up in Slack

Run it on a schedule, async across time zones

Getting a distributed team into one retro meeting is the hardest part, so Troopr removes it. Configure the retro once, pick a question template, and it runs on your cadence. People answer when they reach a stopping point, and Troopr reminds anyone who has not.

  • 20+ retro templates- Pick from a library of built-in retro templates and customize the questions to your team.
  • Recurring or on demand- Run it every sprint on a schedule, or open one whenever the team needs to reflect.
  • Multi-timezone with reminders- Prompts arrive at each person's local time, and smart reminders keep the retro from stalling.
Anonymous participation

Honest feedback, because it is anonymous

People hold back when their name is attached to the hard truths. Troopr lets the team submit, vote, and comment anonymously, so the retro surfaces what is really slowing the team down rather than the safe version.

  • Anonymous submission- Responses are collected with no name attached, and the data stays anonymous.
  • Anonymous voting- The team votes on which items matter most without revealing who voted for what.
  • Anonymous commenting- Discussion happens on the feedback itself, so the conversation stays about the work.
Action items

Group the feedback, turn it into action in Jira

A retro is only worth running if something changes after it. The facilitator groups related notes, the team votes, and the agreed takeaways become action items connected to Jira issues, so improvement work is tracked in the same place as the rest of the sprint.

  • Group and dedupe feedback- Mark responses as duplicates and group them in the Slack thread or web report.
  • Connect action items to Jira- Turn a feedback item into an action item linked to a Jira issue, without leaving Slack.
  • Tracked in one place- Collect actionable items from every retro and keep them together, so nothing slips.
History and engagement

Close the loop, sprint after sprint

Participation drops when the team stops believing anything comes of it. Troopr keeps every retro report in one place and shows action taken on past feedback, so people see the loop closing and keep showing up. Engagement reports show how the team contributed over time.

  • All past retros in one place - Browse previous retro reports and revisit what the team decided.
  • Show action taken - Surface what changed since last time to encourage participation in the next retro.
  • Engagement over time - See how the team contributed across retros, with web reports you can export.
Built for distributed teams

Why agile teams run retrospectives online

A retro should not depend on getting a distributed team into one meeting room. Troopr keeps the ceremony async, honest, and on record.

Time-zone friendly

People reflect when they get a moment, so a team across regions takes part without one shared slot.

Fewer interruptions

No standing meeting to gather feedback; the retro runs alongside the work instead of breaking it.

Kept on record

Every retro is saved to web reports, so there is no manual write-up and history stays searchable.

Cross-team retros

Run a retro across a Slack Connect shared channel with partners, and get one shared report.

More in Troopr Check-ins

Do more than retrospectives

The retrospective is one of six built-in check-in templates. Run the rest of your ceremonies the same way, in Slack.

Daily standup

Flagship

The standup that writes itself. Troopr drafts each person's update from their real Jira, GitHub, and Slack activity and posts the team report.

Online planning poker

Size the backlog on a schedule. Vote across time zones and write the agreed estimate to Jira.

Instant planning poker

Estimate a single task on demand with a slash command in any channel, no scheduling required.

Team mood

Check how the team is feeling, spot trends over time, and act before morale becomes a problem.

Jira Issues Check-in

Prompt the team with a list of their Jira issues and action buttons; people update those issues from Slack. Also how teams run backlog refinement.

Standup bot for Slack

Async daily standups across time zones, with replies and Jira context rolled into one report.

Security & privacy

Built to clear your security review

The privacy posture is a precondition of the product, not a later add-on. It's what makes an AI-native model safe to put in front of your team and your auditors.

  • No training on customer data. Your work never trains a model.
  • No storage of raw messages. Troopr derives and persists a structured set of facts about how your team works, not the raw firehose.
  • Clear scope. Team channels, connected work tools, and a person's own shared activity. Troopr does not read other people's private DMs.
  • OAuth and Jira permissions. Troopr authenticates via OAuth and never bypasses your Jira project, issue, or field permissions.
Looking for employee or customer support automation? That's a different job, and a different product.

FAQ

Questions agile teams ask

Can the team run the retro asynchronously across time zones?

Yes. The retro stays open until its window closes, and prompts arrive at each person's local time, so a distributed team reflects when they get a moment. Troopr reminds anyone who has not answered, then compiles the report. Nobody has to be online at the same time.

Is the feedback anonymous?

It can be. Troopr supports anonymous submission, anonymous voting, and anonymous commenting, so people surface the hard truths without their name attached. The collected data stays anonymous.

What retro templates are available?

There are 20+ built-in retro templates, including Start, Stop, Continue, 4 Ls, and Went well / To improve. Pick one and customize the questions to fit how your team reflects.

Do retro action items connect to Jira?

Yes. The facilitator can group related feedback, the team votes, and the agreed takeaways become action items connected to Jira issues, all without leaving Slack. Action items from every retro are tracked in one place so improvements actually get done.

Where do retro reports live?

Troopr posts a summary report to Slack and keeps the same data in web reports you can browse, search, and export. Past retros stay in one place, and engagement reports show how the team contributed over time.

Is it free?

Free for 3 users, no credit card. Paid plans start at $6/seat/mo, and all three modules, Check-ins, Projects, and Reports, are on every plan.
