What is planning poker online?
Planning poker — also called scrum poker or estimation poker — is a consensus-based technique agile teams use to estimate the relative effort of user stories. Instead of one person guessing, every team member votes privately and all cards are revealed at once. This simultaneous reveal removes anchoring bias, where the first number spoken quietly drags everyone else toward it.
Doing planning poker online means your distributed or hybrid team votes in a shared browser room rather than with physical cards. Planning Poker Hero gives you that room for free: create it, share the link, and your whole team estimates together in real time — no software to install and no account to create.
Why teams choose Planning Poker Hero
Most planning poker tools either lock useful features behind a paywall or require every participant to sign up. We took the opposite approach. The full experience — creating rooms, inviting your team, voting, and revealing — is free and account-free. The only thing we ask is that you keep estimating well.
Free with no signup
No registration, no credit card, no email harvesting. Share a link and start.
GDPR-compliant by design
We are built and hosted in Germany. Sessions are ephemeral, we store nothing about your stories, and analytics cookies load only after you consent.
More than poker
Your subscription to chaos ends here: planning poker, sprint retrospectives, and a gamified standup timer all live on one platform, each behind its own shareable link.
Which estimation scale should you use?
The Fibonacci sequence (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21…) is the most popular because the widening gaps mirror real uncertainty — the bigger a story, the less precisely you can size it. T-shirt sizes (XS–XXL) suit teams that prefer talking about relative size before committing to numbers. Whichever you pick, the goal is the same: a quick, shared sense of effort, not a perfect forecast.
