If you’ve searched for a free planning poker tool, you’ve probably found a dozen options that all have one thing in common: you hit a paywall fast.
Most tools claim to be free, but limit how many users you can invite, how many sessions you can run, or hide key features behind subscriptions.
That’s why we recommend Planfree.dev — a truly free, fast, and reliable planning poker tool that doesn’t cut corners.
What Is Planning Poker?
Planning poker is a collaborative estimation technique used by agile teams to assign relative effort to tasks or user stories. It helps:
- Encourage discussion
- Uncover uncertainty
- Align team expectations
Traditionally, this is done using physical cards. But for remote teams or distributed workforces, a digital tool is essential.
Why Most Planning Tools Miss the Mark
Here’s what usually happens:
- You sign up for a tool labeled “free”
- You invite your team
- After a few rounds, you’re told you need a pro plan to keep going
Or worse—some tools are overloaded with features that get in the way of the one thing you actually want to do: estimate stories quickly.
Why Planfree.dev Is Different
Planfree.dev solves this in the simplest way possible. It strips planning poker down to what matters, and keeps it all free.
