About Tricer

Tricer brings three agile rituals into one app: planning poker, time tracking and retrospectives. Planning poker runs live or asynchronous rounds where cards flip together, stories are pulled from the sprint automatically, and the agreed estimate writes back to the issue. The time tracker works in the background, can start and stop with one tap, and auto-logs against the right issue when you switch git branches, with daily and weekly breakdowns ready to export.

The retro board supports real-time Start, Stop and Continue columns with voting, grouping and AI insights, and top cards can be turned into action points that are exported so they are not lost. Gamification elements include XP, levels and streaks. It works with Jira today, with a macOS tracker on the Atlassian Marketplace, and Linear support is in beta.

The site frames it as a way to avoid paying for three separate tools. It is a hosted subscription with a 7-day free trial that requires a credit card and can be cancelled before day 7 to avoid a charge, and it has a pricing page and comparison pages.
