Geekbot is built around one job: asking each teammate a few questions in Slack or Microsoft Teams and sharing the answers with the team. The Starter plan is free for teams of up to 10 users and already includes unlimited standups, full schedule customization, personal schedules, out-of-office periods and an analytics dashboard with participation rates and blocker categories. Basic costs $2.50 per participant a month on annual billing or $3 monthly, and adds threaded reports, engagement summaries, anonymous reporting, API access, CSV exports, Geekbot AI and unlimited history. Polls and surveys are billed separately per respondent, so a team that only runs standups pays only for standups. Geekbot also connects to AI agents through an MCP server and a CLI. The gaps are history on the free plan, which stops at 3 months, and calendar and project tool integrations, which the pricing page lists under Enterprise.
