Run daily stand-ups your team doesn't dread
The async and live stand-up app for busy teams. Run stand-ups in Slack, Microsoft Teams or the browser, keep them to fifteen minutes, and track blockers to done.
Keep the fifteen minutes
Timeboxed by design, so the daily sync stays a sync — not a status meeting that swallows the morning.
Stay in sync across time zones
Post async in Slack, Teams or the browser, on your own schedule — no one waits on a meeting that doesn’t fit their day.
Surface blockers early
Flag what’s in your way the moment it appears, and track it to done instead of losing it in a thread.
Most teams run a stand-up. Far fewer run one worth the fifteen minutes.
The daily stand-up is meant to be a short sync — where the team lines up on the day and clears what’s in the way. Too often it drifts into status theatre: a lap of the table, everyone reciting yesterday to the manager, no one really listening. The difference is facilitation, not format.
TeamRetro gives the stand-up a shape. Everyone answers the same prompts, the timebox holds, and a blocker becomes a tracked action with an owner — not a comment that scrolls away. Live or async, in the browser or in your chat tool, the meeting stays short and the follow-through outlasts it.
Async stand-ups for teams that don’t share a morning
When your team spans time zones, a live stand-up just taxes whoever’s awake at the wrong hour. Run it async instead — everyone answers the same prompts on their own schedule, and the summary is waiting when the next person logs on. You still get the sync, without the calendar collision. See when async wins, and how to run one.
Stand-ups where your team already works
Bring the stand-up into Slack or Microsoft Teams. TeamRetro reminds the team to post, collects the responses against the same prompts, and drops a tidy digest back into the channel — so the update lives next to the work, not in another tab someone forgets to open.
Timeboxed, so it stays a sync
The fastest way to lose a stand-up is to start solving problems in it. TeamRetro keeps the meeting moving — one prompt at a time, a visible timebox, and a parking lot for the conversations that only need two people. Fifteen minutes in, everyone’s aligned and back to work. The facilitation moves that keep it tight.
Blockers you can actually follow up
A blocker mentioned out loud is a blocker forgotten by lunch. In TeamRetro, flagging one creates an action with an owner and a due date, carried across days until it’s cleared — and pushed straight to Jira if that’s where your team works. Nothing falls through the gap between two stand-ups.
Know who’s waiting on whom
Status is the least useful thing a stand-up produces. The gold is the handoffs — the API’s ready but nothing ships until someone deploys it; design is stuck on a call only the PM can make. TeamRetro turns each “I need X from Y” into a dependency with both names on it, carried from one day to the next until it clears. So the person who’s blocked and the person who can unblock them leave the same stand-up knowing it — instead of finding out on Thursday they’d each been waiting on the other since Monday. Make dependencies part of the daily sync.
Integrates with your existing workflows
Push action items with owners and due dates, agreements, meeting summaries, and health-check results straight into the tools your team already runs on — task trackers, chat, docs, and exports. Connect over our API, webhooks, or MCP so AI agents can pick up where the meeting left off.
