# Troopr Check-ins

> AI-powered async standup tool for Slack that auto-drafts each person's update from real Jira, GitHub, and Slack activity, then compiles team reports and proposes Jira updates.

Troopr Check-ins is a Slack-native async standup tool built by Troopr Labs that drafts each team member's daily update automatically from their real Jira, GitHub, and Slack activity. It runs inside Slack without requiring a separate app, and the product page states it is trusted by 600+ engineering teams worldwide. The tool supports both async and live standup formats, joining calls to take notes and produce grounded reports.

## What It Is

Troopr Check-ins is an AI-powered agile ceremony tool that eliminates the manual effort of daily standups. Instead of asking people to fill in forms, it reads each person's actual activity across Jira, GitHub, and Slack, drafts their update, sends it in DM for confirmation or editing, and posts it on their behalf if there's no reply within the window. After all responses are collected, it compiles a team report with a summary, per-person detail in the thread, and blockers and critical path surfaced automatically.

## How the Standup Workflow Runs

The end-to-end flow is designed to require minimal human input:

- **Draft from real activity** — Each person's update is written from their Jira, GitHub, and Slack activity and sent to them in DM to confirm or edit.
- **Auto-post on behalf** — If no reply arrives in the window, Troopr posts the draft marked as auto-generated so the standup never stalls.
- **Live standup support** — Troopr can join a live video call, listen, and take notes, then cross-reference what was said against live Jira and GitHub data, surfacing discrepancies.
- **Report compilation** — A summary posts to the channel; per-person detail goes in the thread with blockers and the critical path called out.
- **Jira loop closure** — Troopr proposes Jira updates grounded in activity, edits, and meeting notes, and waits for a DM confirmation before making any change.

## Built-In Agile Templates

Six ceremony templates ship out of the box:

- **Standup** — The flagship template that writes itself from real activity, with an AI summary of blockers, themes, and action items.
- **Retrospective** — End-of-sprint reflection with actionable items extracted for tracking.
- **Planning Poker** — Async estimation with threaded discussion until numbers converge.
- **Instant Planning Poker** — On-the-spot estimation via a single Slack command.
- **Team Mood** — A one-minute pulse check with customizable mood options.
- **Jira Issues Check-in** — Team members update their assigned Jira issues directly from Slack, synced back automatically.

## Distributed Team Features

Troopr Check-ins is built specifically for teams spread across time zones:

- Prompts arrive at each person's local time
- Team and personal holiday configurations skip prompts and account for leave in reports
- Planned absences pause prompts automatically
- Cross-team standups run over Slack Connect with one shared report
- Bulk absence upload via CSV
- Multiple admin roles at both check-in and account level
- Late submissions accepted by default
- Anonymous participation supported for planning poker and Jira issues check-ins
- PDF export of current or past reports

## Reporting and History

Every check-in rolls up into dashboards accessible from the web app:

- **Report dashboard** — Full set of answers with Jira issues inline, searchable and browsable historically.
- **Insights dashboard** — Contribution log showing how team members performed over time.
- **History dashboard** — Drill-down by user and question over any period to track engagement.
- **Home dashboard** — Admin view of the whole team's check-ins with search and filter.

## Security and Privacy Posture

The product page states Troopr holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR certifications. Key privacy commitments listed on the site include: no training on customer data, no storage of raw messages (only structured facts about how the team works), OAuth authentication that respects existing Jira permissions, and a clear scope limited to team channels and connected work tools — not other people's private DMs.
