Everyone points in private first. The host reveals only when the room is ready.
01
Private by default
Separate host and participant links, no accounts, and temporary room data.
02
Six useful scales
Story points, size, confidence, risk, complexity, and a light chaos scale.
03
Realtime discussion flow
Participants join, vote, reveal, discuss, and revote without managing tickets.
How PointRoom works
A room is intentionally short-lived: create it, share the participant link, vote together, reveal, and close the loop.
02
Share separate links
Participants get a simple join link. The host keeps a private control link for reveal, reset, lock, and final-result actions.
03
Vote without pressure
Hidden mode keeps estimates private until reveal. Live mode is available when seeing votes during discussion is useful.
04
Reveal and align
Use the distribution, median, range, and agreement summary to discuss differences and set a final result.
Choose the right scale
PointRoom includes the six scales that cover most lightweight estimation and decision sessions.
Fibonacci
Best for story points and relative effort when uncertainty grows with size.
T-shirt
Good for quick sizing conversations when numbers would imply false precision.
Confidence
Useful for checking how sure the group is before committing to a decision.
Risk
Helps surface implementation, delivery, or operational risk before it becomes hidden work.
Complexity
Separates technical complexity from effort when the team needs a cleaner signal.
Chaos
A light team-friendly scale for messy work, unknowns, and boss-fight sized surprises.
Private by design
PointRoom avoids accounts and long-lived workspace state. Rooms are temporary operational tools, not a permanent record.
No accounts
Participants join with a room link and a name policy chosen by the host.
Private host link
Host controls are protected by a separate tokenized link and an HttpOnly session cookie after authentication.
Automatic expiry
Inactive and hard-expired rooms are cleaned up automatically, with manual cleanup available to the operator.
No analytics
The v1 app does not include analytics, tracking pixels, ads, billing, organizations, or ticket integrations.
Start with a disposable estimation room.
Create a room, share the participant link, and keep the host link private. No setup ceremony required.
