Three simple buckets that surface what to begin, end, and keep doing.
4Ls (Liked, Learned, Lacked, Longed For)
A reflective four-column retro for end-of-project lessons.
Sailboat
A four-quadrant retro for naming structural friction without pointing at a person.
Hopes and Fears
A pre-mortem that doesn't admit to being a pre-mortem. Run it before kickoff; come back at the halfway mark.
ESVP
A thermometer for the room. If half the team voted Prisoner, you're running the wrong meeting.
Mad / Sad / Glad
Mad first or you wasted the meeting. Glad-first is hosting; Mad-first is working.
Lean Coffee
The retrospective for when you have more topics than time. The timer is the format.
Fist of Five
A confidence check before commitment, not a vote. The signal is the low end.
Remember the Future
The press release dated six months out. Past tense or you're back to a wishlist.
Pre-Mortem
Anonymous or you wasted the meeting. The senior person's fears anchor the room.
Common questions
All FAQs →- What is this?
- A free tool from TeamRetro. Two halves: an AI generator that produces themed retro templates, and a library of well-known retrospective formats with field notes on how to actually run them.
- Do I need an account?
- No. Both the generator and the library are free with no sign-up.
- How does the generator work?
- Pick a team type, a language, the number of topics you want, and an optional theme. The model produces a custom retro template you can run in TeamRetro, in Miro, on a wall, anywhere.
