A modern alternative
to planningpoker.com
planningpoker.com is fine for the one-off retro. Pokor is built for teams that already live in Jira, Notion, or GitHub — with real two-way sync, exports, and EU-hosted data.
TL;DR
planningpoker.com (Mountain Goat) gives you a room, customizable timers, and Jira import + export. Pokor adds Notion / GitHub / Slack / Discord integrations, async voting, vote rationale + confidence, retrospectives, exports and cross-session analytics — for a flat €5.99/mo organizer seat with voters always free.
The full comparison
Verified against planningpoker.com and play.planningpoker.com/plans as of April 2026. Where a row says ‘not advertised’, the feature simply isn't mentioned on their public pages — it may exist.
Who should pick which
Pokor fits when…
- Your backlog lives in Jira, Notion, or GitHub and you want estimates to flow back automatically.
- You run async refinement across time zones and need voting to work over hours, not minutes.
- You want analytics, retrospectives, and similar-story suggestions — not just a round-by-round room.
- You care about EU data residency and an organizer-only pricing model.
Consider planningpoker.com when…
- You only need a standalone voting room and don’t have a backlog tool to connect.
- Your team is already trained on planningpoker.com and switching cost outweighs the gain.
Common questions

Only the organizer pays — €5.99/mo or €59.99/yr. Voters and spectators are always free, with no per-seat tax. A 10-person team pays the price of one seat. planningpoker.com's free tier caps at 5 users per game, so any larger team has to upgrade. See full pricing →
Yes — Jira, Notion databases, GitHub issues, and CSV. All imports are one-click from the session creator after you connect the integration.
Yes. Pokor is hosted in Europe; planningpoker.com primarily serves a US audience. If EU data residency matters to your org, Pokor is the safer default.
