Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm thrilled to share **The Retrospective Quest** with you today!
The origin story:
After observing hundreds of sprint retrospectives, I noticed the same pattern repeating: a few vocal team members would dominate the conversation while others disengaged and checked their phones. Traditional retro boards felt like homework, not collaboration.
So I asked myself: *What if retrospectives felt more like playing a co-op game with your team than sitting through another meeting?*
The Retrospective Quest was born from that question. 🎮
Here's what makes it special:
🎭 Character Roles System
Each teammate gets a unique role (Tracker, Architect, Gardener, Pathfinder, Gatekeeper) with specific responsibilities. No more quiet observers—everyone has a mission and contributes actively.
🗺️ Quest-Based Journey
Teams explore five themed areas together (Forest of Challenges, Tower of Solutions, Garden of Triumphs, Path of Actions, Arena of Choices). It's structured reflection that feels like an adventure.
🤝 True Real-Time Sync
When anyone navigates to the next area, everyone's screen updates automatically. You're genuinely on a quest together, not just looking at the same board independently.
🤖 AI Copilot
Our AI suggests solutions for challenges, generates action items from discussions, and even enhances your Jira tickets with acceptance criteria and story points. It's like having a smart retro facilitator built-in.
🔗 Smart Jira Integration
OAuth-based connection that doesn't just export your action items—it *intelligently refines* them into production-ready tickets complete with estimates, descriptions, and sprint assignments.
I'd love your feedback on:
- What's your biggest pain point with current retrospective tools?
- Would character roles work for your team dynamics?
- For remote teams: what features would make virtual retros more engaging?
Let's make retrospectives something teams actually enjoy. Thanks for checking it out! 🚀
