Questions
Is Retree really free?
Yes. No paid plan and no trial, so tips and sponsors pay for it.
Do we need accounts to use it?
No. Your browser keeps a random identifier, and you type a display name.
Where is our data stored?
In the European Union. The servers run in Nuremberg, Germany.
How long do you keep a retro?
Retros do not expire yet. Ask by email and a retro is deleted.
How many people can join one retro?
As many as you like. Each person gets 3 votes to spend.
Does it work on phones and for remote teams?
Yes. A phone shows one lane at a time, and changes arrive within a second.
