Atlassian
Application
Workforce-planning app in the Atlassian Strategy Collection that maps positions, skills and capacity to strategic initiatives so leaders can see how each initiative is staffed and spot gaps. Atlassian titles it 'AI-first Workforce Planning' and promises 'intelligent workforce planning guidance', but the product page names no specific AI mechanism beyond that.
External customer-service app sold only inside the Atlassian Service Collection: AI agents built in Agent Studio resolve common requests and escalate complex ones, a Rovo-powered omnichannel workspace keeps each customer's conversation in one thread, Voice AI answers calls and turns them into work items with transcripts, and human agents get AI help finding answers and summarising issues.
AI feature suite inside Loom (owned by Atlassian) that automatically generates titles, summaries and chapters, and converts recorded videos into documents, Jira/Linear issues or messages.
