How Scrum Poker Works
Story point estimation only works if people vote independently, the moment someone hears "I think it's an 8" out loud, everyone else's number drifts toward it. Paceflow's Scrum Poker keeps every vote private until the whole team has committed, so you get real signal on where the team actually disagrees, not just who spoke first.

Vote privately
Each person picks their estimate without seeing anyone else's pick, which is what prevents anchoring bias.
- 4
Reveal and align
Once everyone's voted, reveal all estimates at once. If the team's numbers are close, you're done. If they're split, that gap is usually the most useful part of the conversation, since it means someone sees a risk or a dependency the rest of the team hasn't.
FAQ
Do I need an account to run a session?
No, creating or joining a room doesn't require logging in.
Why can't we just call out our estimates out loud?
Because the first number spoken anchors everyone else's judgment, even unintentionally. Private voting means each estimate reflects one person's actual read on the work, not a guess adjusted toward what they think the group wants to hear. Disagreement after the reveal is a feature, not a problem; it's usually where the most useful discussion happens.
