The story behind Scrum Poker Online

F

Hi, I'm Fabian! 👋

Web Developer for over 15 years

For more than 15 years, I have been developing web applications with passion and have accompanied countless projects from idea to successful launch.

Currently, I lead a development team at an e-commerce company, where we work daily with agile methods and develop innovative solutions for complex challenges.

The idea behind this tool

The Problem

In our team, we use Planning Poker almost daily – for sprint planning, backlog refinements and story point estimation. But we constantly struggled with the same problems:

  • Cumbersome, bloated websites with unnecessary features
  • Plugins that simply didn't fit our workflows
  • Tools that required registration (who has time for that?)
  • Slow loading times and complicated UIs
  • Lack of flexibility with card values and settings

The Solution

So I thought: "Why not just develop a tool myself that does exactly what we need – no more, no less?"

And that's how Scrum Poker Online was born – a tool we now use almost daily. Minimalist, fast, intuitive. Exactly as it should be.

Developed with love ♥
