Morgenruf vs Sup Bot

Morgenruf is an open-source Slack app for async standups, coffee chats, peer recognition, celebrations, and team insights. Its standup workflow sends configurable questions by direct message and posts responses in a chosen channel, with per-person timezones, reminders, custom questions, and skipped check-ins. Coffee chats pair channel members without repeating pairings and create a group of three when needed; Zoom can book the agreed time. Kudos uses a daily allowance that resets by timezone and includes giving and receiving leaderboards. Morgenruf integrates with Slack, while Google Chat standups are beta and Microsoft Teams support is in progress. The MIT-licensed app can be self-hosted with Docker Compose or Helm using a Postgres database you control, or used as a hosted service. An MCP server exposes standup data to Claude, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot. TLS/HTTPS protects data in transit, and Slack tokens are encrypted at rest with AES-256.

Sup Bot is a web tool for chat-first teams that want asynchronous stand-ups, team updates, and time-off tracking. Stand-ups can use recurring follow-ups, templates, anonymous mood tracking, summaries, and reports. Teams can collect information through forms, polls, and recurring check-ins, and track work-from-home and work-from-office status. For leave, members submit requests, managers approve them, and teams can track custom leave types and balances; approved leave and holidays can sync to a shared Google Calendar. Integrations listed include Slack, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Google Calendar, and Google Sheets. The Free plan costs nothing and allows 15 members, one active follow-up, and unlimited responses. A 14-day free trial covers all features, after which the account is downgraded to Free. Other listed plans include Workflows add-on at $9 a month, Forms add-on at $9 a month, Stand-ups at $29 a month, and Holidays / Leaves at $49 a month. The privacy policy describes encrypted data transmission and user rights to access, correct, delete, and port data.
