The Atlassian Teamwork Collection unifies Jira, Confluence, and Loom with Rovo AI agents to eliminate busywork, deliver insights, and enable smarter, augmented teamwork.

Modern work can be filled with many tools, but they may not always connect seamlessly, sometimes leading to extra noise, added stress, and a sense of fragmentation for teams. Our report, The 'human' cost of digital transformation, backs this up. 64% of knowledge workers indicated that their workplace technology has negatively impacted their day-to-day work.

You don't need more or different tools. You need a solution for connecting tools, reducing stress, and leveraging the right capabilities.

Atlassian Teamwork Collection might be the answer. It combines the essential teamwork apps—Confluence, Jira, Loom, and Rovo—and therefore transforms how teamwork gets done. All apps are designed to improve teamwork, from making decisions faster and accelerating execution to improved focus and flow and ensuring asynchronous work really works.

One way Teamwork Collection helps you do this is through Rovo. Here, we take a closer look at how Atlassian's AI capabilities (Search, Chat, and Studio) can eliminate repetitive work, deliver insights exactly when and where you need them, and connect tools into a seamless workflow. All to help your teams work smarter, not harder.

But first up, here's a quick reminder of what Atlassian Teamwork Collection is.

Atlassian Teamwork Collection recap

Teamwork Collection enhances how your teams collaborate across your entire organisation, bringing Atlassian's System of Work principles to life. This cloud-based collection of tools includes Jira (to plan, track, and release work), Confluence (to create and organise work documents in one central, searchable place), and Loom (to work asynchronously and share videos for work, feedback, and explanations).

The unified Teamwork Graph also supports Teamwork Collection – it links all your organisation's information together. This unifies your teams, messages, and goals, helping to eliminate silos.

With this curated series of apps – and the AI agents that come with them (see below) – your teams can be more connected and productive, accelerating progress and maximising their impact.

Don't miss out on the benefits of Atlassian Cloud

Teamwork Collection is only available on Atlassian Cloud, which means you'll need to migrate to get the most out of these tools and their AI features. Luckily, we can help. FastShift Complete is our tailored solution, designed to help you get the most value from cloud transformation.

Teamwork Collection with added AI

The challenge is that even with the right tools (like Jira and Confluence), teams still struggle because they lack sufficient context, knowledge is fragmented, and the work they're doing lacks clarity.

In fact, our report showed that 74% of knowledge workers told us they don't understand why they are working on a task. With Atlassian's platform, teams can create goals, leading to better transparency and alignment. Creating a relationship to set goals helps individuals understand why they are working on a task.

That's why we're really excited about Rovo, which is baked into the Atlassian Teamwork Collection. Rovo integrates search, chat, and agents into the tools you use every day. Broadly speaking, it:
  • Pulls context and relevant information from across all your tools and data
  • Agents can take action and work to reduce manual effort continuously
Rovo is the AI assistant designed to elevate modern teamwork, empowering teams to thrive by acting as a supportive teammate that benefits the entire organisation. Here are some of the ways Rovo can transform how you work with Jira, Confluence, and Loom:

Jira with Rovo
With Rovo, Jira gets an intelligence boost. You can use natural language search to get answers instantly, generate tickets and updates in seconds, add context to tickets or summarise comments for faster oversight of a ticket, and use plain English to describe an automation – Rovo will build the rule for you.

Confluence with Rovo
Confluence is already a knowledge powerhouse, but with Rovo, it's so much easier to draft and refine whiteboards, pages, and blog posts. Use it to summarise long pages of information and discussions. And ask it to group similar ideas or generate new ones with the whiteboards feature. Rovo can also help you translate content or provide an audio summary, making content more inclusive for everyone on the team.

Loom with Rovo
Get more insights out of your video content with automatic meeting summaries. Know what comes next with key decisions defined and action items extracted from every meeting. And bring insights together from multiple recordings to help you understand the bigger picture. Rovo can also help you create content quickly; for example, the audio automatically cuts out speech pauses – no manual editing is necessary. Subtitles are also available immediately. Reducing the time spent creating asynchronous videos for your team.

The impact of Rovo AI agents

Having Rovo AI agents on your team is a game-changer—more power, more productivity, without the overhead. Let's look at how Rovo AI agents are augmenting everyday tasks and changing the way leading technology organisations get work done.

Repetitive tasks taken care of
"Busywork" can slow teams down, cause technostress, and impact morale. Work like creating tickets and documentation, updating statuses and generating reports, and structuring messy insights into usable outputs. Luckily, Rovo was built for this type of manual work. By automating repetitive tasks, your engineers, PMs, and ops teams can regain hours previously spent on admin and put them to use better.
Rovo in action
Let's say one of your product managers attends a stakeholder meeting, then drafts a feature outline in Confluence. Rather than spending hours breaking it down into tickets, Rovo analyses the page instantly, generates epics, stories, and subtasks in Jira, and even pre-fills acceptance criteria and descriptions.

All the insights at your fingertips
When your data is spread across different tools and in different formats, it can be hard to get a handle on what's really going on. And when people leave the organisation, often their knowledge goes with them. In our report, 60% of respondents said they feared knowledge loss when people leave.
Luckily, Rovo can not only pull information together but also, with the Teamwork graph, give you context across the Atlassian tools. Even after a team member has left, you can chat with Rovo about past work to ask questions or clarify knowledge gaps. This reduces the stress and fear of losing information.

Times are busy, and teams are under a lot of pressure to find the right answers or documents at the right time to act with confidence in decision-making. Rovo makes light work of this, pulling context from Jira, Confluence, Loom, and elsewhere. It surfaces the relevant knowledge the moment you need it, saving you search time and stress. And it provides accessible summaries rather than overwhelming you with raw data. It speeds up decision-making, and those decisions are based on the full picture rather than partial information.
Rovo in action
Another example is custom agents supporting the C-level in determining the right level of detail for initiative summaries.
Your CTO needs a quick overview of how a strategic initiative is progressing. Normally, they'd have to dig through tools to find the insights, but now they've got Rovo. Rovo pulls updates from Jira on delivery progress, connects those with documentation in Confluence, and surfaces relevant Loom updates from different teams. The CTO gets a concise summary outlining key risks and blockers, and demonstrating overall progress against your goals.

Information on where you are, without the need to switch tools
Constant context switching between tools is a major contributor to technostress and disengagement. Our research showed that 43% of people experience stress because of too many platforms and notifications.

Without Rovo, your people are forced to jump between tools, tabs, and documents to find what they need when they need it. So, cutting down context switching is a no-brainer. Rovo does exactly that. It brings search, chat and supportive agents into one interface—no more jumping between tools. Your teams can go from. Rovo brings search, chat, and actions into one interface, connecting work across Jira, Confluence, and Loom seamlessly. Your teams can go from question to answer to action in a single flow. They're more powerful, more productive, and probably happier as a result, too.
Rovo in action

Your PM records an asynchronous update for the wider team using Loom. While everyone can still watch the full recording, Rovo automatically adds a written summary, making it easier to grasp the key takeaways. It also summarises its content automatically. It also identifies any action items and creates corresponding Jira tickets for the team. No one needs to take notes or manually create tasks either.

Collective capabilities, enhanced by AI

Teamwork Collection's power comes from the platform capabilities and smart AI features. You get a system of record (Jira), a system of knowledge (Confluence), a system of communication (Loom), and a system of intelligence – that's Rovo. The shared platform ensures work is always connected. Knowledge is accessible to everyone. Decisions get made faster. And execution happens seamlessly.

Introducing AI the right way, effectively, to enhance teams' day-to-day work can have a positive impact on your people, too. Our research found that nearly half (48%) of respondents with AI embedded into their everyday workflows felt energised and motivated by their work environment (versus just 19% without AI). The result is efficiency, sure, but it's also a shift to AI-augmented teamwork, where humans focus on strategy and creativity, while AI handles the heavy lifting behind the scenes.
