Retrospectives that actually lead to change
Run structured, energising retros. Your team adds notes in real time, votes on what matters most, and you walk away with AI-generated actions that are already tracked.

See every retro on a kanban board
The retros list page is a three-column kanban: Build, Active, and Completed. Active gathers Draft, Vote, and Discuss into one column so the lifecycle stays simple.
- Three columns surface what's being built, what's live, and what's done
- Cards show team, date, current phase, note count, and action count
- Drag and drop between columns to update a retro's status

- Optionally allow multiple votes on the same note
- Up and down arrows beside each note's vote count let you cast and clear votes without the buttons shifting around
- Reset Votes button on the budget bar wipes the slate clean (and clears your Done status) in one tap

Turn discussion into action with AI
The hardest part of a retro is making sure things actually change. AI reads your top-voted notes and suggests concrete, specific actions. You pick the ones that matter and add them to your list with one click.
- AI analyses your retro notes and suggests up to three distinct actions per discussed note
- Keep the ones that fit with a single tap, dismiss the rest individually
- Every action is linked back to this retro automatically and dropped into your master action list
- Inline assignee picker drops the action onto a team member at the moment you capture it
- AI features available on Pro; actions work for all plans
