How planning poker works
A simple three-step loop keeps estimation independent, visible and useful.
- 01
Create a room
Start a session and share the room code or invitation link with your team.
- 02
Vote independently
Each participant chooses an estimate privately, reducing anchoring and groupthink.
- 03
Reveal and discuss
Reveal the estimates together, discuss the differences and vote again when needed.

Consensus uses the product’s standard Fibonacci-style deck. As uncertainty grows, the gaps between values widen so teams avoid implying false precision.
