Async Poker does not make use of the traditional planning poker sessions. It uses the Asynchronous method for estimation.

Key Benefits

• Accuracy of Estimation: Since team members can go through stories at their own pace, so the estimates are more accurate.
• Better Written Story Description: Asynchronous planning poker triggers the practice of written story description with little to no room for verbal explanation. Therefore, any clarifications are also going to be presented in written form. This way, it removes the chances that the team will forget about those clarifications at the time they start working on the story.
• Efficiency: Asynchronous planning poker empowers team members to study and provide estimates on stories based on their schedules.
• No Time Wasted: Once all team member estimates are compiled and there are not many differences in the estimates, then there is no need for any kind of discussion.
• Beneficial for Newbies: New members in a team usually need some extra time to dig stories and come up with the estimate.
