Atlassian has announced a major expansion of its AI strategy at Team ’26, opening its Teamwork Graph to external AI agents and launching new Rovo capabilities across Jira, Confluence, and software development workflows. The company says the move is aimed at helping enterprises shift from assistive AI tools to AI-native operations powered by autonomous agents.
Atlassian expands AI push at Team ’26
Atlassian has unveiled a broad set of artificial intelligence updates at its Team ’26 conference, with the company opening access to its Teamwork Graph and adding new agentic AI features across its collaboration and productivity products.
The Bengaluru announcement positions Atlassian’s Teamwork Graph as a central data layer for AI agents operating across enterprise software environments. According to the company, the graph contains more than 150 billion connections linking people, projects, documents, goals, code repositories, and workflows.
Atlassian said the Teamwork Graph will now be accessible through new open beta tools that allow external AI systems to search, reason, and take actions using enterprise context while maintaining permission controls.
“In 2026, anyone can buy ‘smarts’ by the token,” said Mike Cannon-Brookes, CEO and co-founder of Atlassian. “The real moat is your institutional memory: every plan, document, and decision your teams have ever made. Rovo is the interface that turns intelligence and context into actual momentum for your business.”
New tools for AI agents and developers
One of the biggest announcements is the launch of Teamwork Graph tools in Model Context Protocol (MCP) open beta. The Rovo MCP Server will allow compatible AI clients, including tools like Figma and Replit, to securely access organizational context stored in the graph.
The company also introduced the Teamwork Graph CLI in open beta. The command-line interface is aimed at developers using coding agents such as Anthropic Claude Code and OpenAI Codex. Atlassian said the tool gives coding agents structured access to project and workflow information while administrators retain control over permissions and access scopes.
Rovo moves beyond assistive AI
Atlassian said customer use of Rovo has accelerated over recent months. The company reported more than 14 million Rovo-assisted actions in the last month alone, while agentic automations have increased sevenfold over the past six months.
The company is now introducing a new generally available Rovo Studio workspace. The platform allows teams to build AI agents, automations, and custom applications using natural language prompts with governance controls built into the workflow.
A new “Max mode” for Rovo Chat is also on the way. Atlassian said the feature will let users hand off multi-step tasks directly to AI agents that can coordinate actions across Atlassian products and connected software-as-a-service applications.
Jira and Confluence gain AI-driven updates
Atlassian is also embedding AI agents directly into Jira workflows. Teams will be able to assign work to agents, mention them in comments, and include them in automations.
Confluence is receiving new AI-powered content transformation features through “Remix with Rovo,” currently in beta. Users can convert text, tables, and lists into charts, slides, infographics, and databases without leaving the platform.
The company also announced Confluence slides, which is expected to enter beta soon.
Focus on measurable AI productivity
For software teams, Atlassian introduced new DX AI Experience capabilities that track AI-generated code, monitor agent performance, and measure return on investment tied to AI-assisted development.
The company additionally launched early access for its Product Collection platform, combining Jira Product Discovery, the Feedback app, and a planned Pendo integration into a connected product management workflow.
Atlassian also expanded availability of Dia, its AI-powered browser experience. Dia surfaces daily summaries based on emails, messages, calendars, browser activity, and Teamwork Graph data. The company said enterprise-focused security features, including single sign-on and SOC 2 Type II attestation, are included.
Atlassian said Rovo is now used by more than 75% of Fortune 500 companies and 90% of its enterprise cloud customers.
