Question 1

Is RetroFlow actually free?

Accepted Answer

Yep, completely free. No hidden tiers, no "premium" unlock, no credit card ever. Every feature is available to every team, always.

Question 2

Do I need to make an account?

Accepted Answer

Nope. Just open a board and start. No signup form, no email verification, no passwords to forget. You can literally start a retro in under 10 seconds.

Question 3

How many people can join one board?

Accepted Answer

There's no cap. Invite your whole team — whether that's 3 people or 30. Everyone joins through the same link and collaborates in real time.

Question 4

Does it work for remote teams?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. RetroFlow was built with remote and hybrid teams in mind. Everyone sees updates live, no matter where they are. All you need is a browser.

Question 5

Can I use it for in-person retros too?

Accepted Answer

Of course! Throw the board on a big screen and let everyone add notes from their own devices. Works great in a conference room.

Question 6

What retro formats do you support?

Accepted Answer

Seven battle-tested ones: Classic, Mad Sad Glad, Start Stop Continue, 4Ls, Rose Thorn Bud, Keep Problem Try, and Worked Want Improve. Each has a different vibe — pick whatever fits your team.

Question 7

Which format should I start with?

Accepted Answer

If you're new to retros, go with Classic. It's simple — What went well, What to improve, and Action items. Once your team gets the hang of it, try Mad Sad Glad or 4Ls for a fresh perspective.

Question 8

Can I switch formats between sprints?

Accepted Answer

Definitely. In fact, we encourage it. Rotating formats keeps retros from feeling stale and surfaces different kinds of feedback from your team.

Question 9

Can I customize the column names?

Accepted Answer

Each format comes with its own set of columns designed to prompt the right conversations. Just pick the template that matches the kind of feedback you want.

Question 10

Can my team vote on items?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Every team member can upvote ideas so the most important topics naturally float to the top. It's a great way to focus your discussion time.

Question 11

Is everything updated in real time?

Accepted Answer

Yep. When someone adds a note, everyone else sees it appear instantly. No refreshing, no syncing — it just works.

Question 12

Does it work on phones and tablets?

Accepted Answer

Fully responsive. Whether you're on a laptop, tablet, or phone, the experience is smooth. Handy when someone's joining from the couch.

Question 13

Can I export my retro notes?

Accepted Answer

Yes — export your board's notes and action items whenever you want. Great for sharing a summary in Slack or dropping it into your team wiki.

Question 14

Who can see my retro board?

Accepted Answer

Only people with the board link. There's no public directory, no search indexing. If you don't share the link, nobody else can find it.

Question 15

Do you sell or share our data?

Accepted Answer

Never. We don't track, sell, or share your retrospective data with anyone. Your team's conversations stay yours.

Question 16

How long are boards stored?

Accepted Answer

Boards stay available as long as you need them. You can come back to an old retro link and still see everything your team wrote.

Question 17

Is the connection secure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Everything runs over HTTPS, so your data is encrypted in transit. We take your team's privacy seriously.

Question 18

What size teams is this built for?

Accepted Answer

Any size, honestly. We've seen it used by pairs doing a quick check-in and by teams of 20+ running a full sprint retro. The interface scales to fit.

Question 19

Can I run async retros?

Accepted Answer

Sure thing. Share the board link and let people add notes on their own schedule. Then come together to discuss when everyone's ready.

Question 20

Do we need a facilitator?

Accepted Answer

It helps, but it's not required. The board structure guides the conversation naturally, so even without a dedicated facilitator things tend to flow.

Question 21

How do I share the board with my team?

Accepted Answer

You get a unique link the moment you create a board. Just copy it and paste it wherever your team hangs out — Slack, Teams, email, carrier pigeon.

Question 22

Is this good for first-time retro teams?

Accepted Answer

Perfect for it. Pick the Classic format, share the link, and let everyone add sticky notes. The low barrier to entry makes it easy for anyone to jump in.
