Remote Planning Poker: Start Your Session in Under 60 Seconds

Remote planning poker sessions usually break down in the same place. Not on the method.

In the first five minutes: someone can't connect, someone is waiting on a verification email, the product owner is checking their watch.

pokrr requires no signup. One link, one username, and everyone's in the room.

What matters when your team is distributed

  • Zero signup for participants

    Every new participant, every invited stakeholder, every new session: no one creates an account. A link in Slack or Teams is enough.

  • Works in any browser

    Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android, Firefox on Linux. No app to install, no IT approval needed.

  • Votes hidden until the reveal

    Even remotely, no one sees anyone else's vote before the simultaneous reveal. Anchoring bias doesn't join the call.

  • Per-story timer

    Start a countdown for each user story to keep sessions on track. Remote sessions lose momentum faster than in-person ones.

  • Multi-admin with transfer

    The facilitator role can change mid-session. Useful when the team spans time zones or when the Scrum Master needs to hand off.

  • No data stored

    Rooms expire after 4 hours of inactivity. No account, no email, no server-side data. GDPR-compliant by design.

Frequently asked questions

Does pokrr work with Zoom or Teams?
Yes, in a browser tab alongside the video call. Each participant opens pokrr.app while the call runs in parallel. No native integration needed.
Can planning poker be done asynchronously?
pokrr is designed for synchronous sessions, but a room stays open for 4 hours. If the team votes at different times within that window, votes accumulate until the admin reveals.
How many people can join a session?
No hard limit. pokrr is designed for teams of 3 to 15 people, but no technical cap is enforced.
Is pokrr free for remote teams?
Yes, entirely free. No ads, no signup, no session limits.
How do I share the room with the team?
A short room code, a URL link, and a QR code are generated automatically when you create a room. Paste the link in the team's Slack channel before the call.
