The Neatro alternative with scheduled retros and AI summaries

Neatro is an online retrospective and health check tool created in Canada. It offers a fun and lighthearted user interface that focuses on illustrations. It has a simple and basic set of customizable templates to allow you to run a meeting. TeamRetro, the alternative to Neatro, is also a cloud-based retrospective tool that offers a wide array of retrospective templates and health checks (along with statistical information) and insights into trends and patterns over time. It has an easy-to-use interface that allows retrospectives to run smoothly and integrates with a wide range of workflow tools. TeamRetro is also SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR compliant.

Neatroverse is the community-driven gallery of retrospective templates with different themes, topic headers, and questions designed to make agile retrospectives more interesting and engaging. It showcases a creative mix of formats contributed by users, including themed retrospectives (like Star Wars, Sailboat, and Weather Report). TeamRetro also has a community section built into the app allowing you to create templates from a widely sourced range of industry-used and customer-tested retrospective formats. Additionally, you can also get AI-generated retrospective and health check templates based on a theme or problem you are trying to address. You will get topic suggestions that you can customize further to your needs. Finally, there are also specialized templates for key meeting activities, milestones and events such as project kick-off and SWOT planning that you can use in TeamRetro.

Neatro offers 30+ playful retrospective templates (like Sailboat and Zombie Apocalypse), along with simple team health radars and icebreaker games. They offer a fun and real time retrospective experience for users and online teams. TeamRetro goes further in terms of the ability to customize your retrospective, with well thought out features that make it easier for facilitators to lead discussion and increase engagement. With features that allow you to sync screens, park items, propose actions and link actions to ideas to give your retrospectives more meaning. TeamRetro allows you to conduct Team Health Checks easily along with trend data, insights and heat maps to allow you to easily identify themes across teams. Additionally, they have incorporated AI Features to improve time and productivity with suggested grouping, templates creation, action suggestion, meeting summaries and team sentiment analysis.

Both Neatro and TeamRetro allow you to create SMART action items and track them on a board. However, TeamRetro adds ownership, due dates, automated reminders, and richer reporting on completed vs. pending actions, plus direct integration to tools like Jira, Asana, Trello, MS Teams, and Slack. TeamRetro also allows people to propose actions and to get feedback on actions before you commit them to your backlog making it easier to get buy in from the team, and hence follow through.

Neatro offers a free plan for 1 team, up to 10 team members and limited facilitation features, with history kept for 30 days, then moves to per-team pricing tiers. Paid plans start at $29 USD per team per month (billed monthly). There are no integrations or exports on the free plan. Meanwhile, Neatro's alternative – TeamRetro, is also free for 30 days, with pricing that starts at $25 USD per team per month, regardless of the number of participants, and includes additional volume-based discounts.

Neatro is not SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR compliant. They store all information behind firewalls on their secure servers. Any payment transactions and all the information that passes between the Neatro application, the server and the database is encrypted with SSL technology. The safety and security of your information also depends on you. Only their CTO, Benjamin Cotrel has access to the Microsoft Azure Account and he uses two-factor authentication on his Microsoft account and only accesses Microsoft Azure from his personal desktop computer. Alternatively, TeamRetro is SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR compliant and can be hosted in either the US or the EU. This makes TeamRetro well-suited for teams with strict IT or compliance requirements. Detailed information can be found on the TeamRetro security page.

Neatro integrates with tools like Jira, GitHub, Asana, Monday, and Azure DevOps to export action items. TeamRetro supports an even broader set of integrations, including Jira, Asana, Trello, MS Teams, Slack, Confluence, and custom webhooks or API connections to fit into your team's workflow.
