Customer work rarely lives in one place. Salesforce holds the account, opportunity, contact, and case details. Jira shows the product work behind a customer commitment. Confluence holds the account plan, enablement materials, and meeting notes. Jira Service Management tracks support requests and escalations. Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Drive, and other tools hold the conversations and assets that explain what’s really happening.

Without the right context, every day is day one for a coding agent. Agents may have the intelligence needed to write, refactor, and review code, but they still face the same challenge developers do: understanding how complex systems actually work. They need the right context to navigate cross-team dependencies, ownership boundaries, and downstream impacts that are hard to understand from any single workspace. Code only tells part of that story.

The past couple of years have changed how my team operates. We’ve experimented, adjusted quickly, and seen meaningful early results. That momentum got me excited about where marketing is headed in the age of AI, even as we continue learning along the way. Since then, we’ve witnessed what holds companies back from succeeding with AI.

@mention an agent on any page and it creates, edits, and comments alongside your team. Through the Atlassian Rovo MCP, the same agents work from Claude, Cursor, or your IDE. Agents have been working in Confluence since we launched custom agents in May 2024, and teams now run more than 5 million agent invocations a month. In February alone, Agents saved Atlassian customers more than 200,000 hours.

A reflection on building an enterprise product using AI agents, and what the data says about how we worked. The observation For the past few months we have been rapidly building an enterprise-wide, production-grade application that helps with employee compensation planning, management and communication. I compared what we built against a traditionally-built product to draw out insights about our new ways of working.

TLDR: Key updates: Rovo Search now provides AI-generated answers with citations, routes intent-aware queries in Jira, searches across 50+ connected tools, delivers richer visual results, and is embedded directly in Atlassian workflows.

Our Design Ops team supports more than 600 designers across Atlassian. And like most operations teams, we were seeing the same pattern over and over again: important questions landing in Slack, manual triage happening in the background, and too much useful knowledge trapped in docs that people either couldn’t find or didn’t have time to read. We built DOT, the Design Org Teammate, to change that.
