Six months ago, Atlassian announced its Rovo AI virtual AI assistant. That includes search- and chat-based AI tools to automate workflows in Rovo’s product range.
Rovo AI is now available to all Atlassian customers. That AI assistant should help teams work better together and has three prominent features. The Rovo Search feature is primarily focused on data retrieval from Atlassian products such as Jira and Confluence, but can also work in from external SaaS tools such as Slack, Figma, Google Drive, and GitHub. In the coming months, Rovo Search is expected to support 80 connectors, Techcrunch knows.
Automating workflows
Customers can additionally use Rovo Chat to quickly retrieve information about projects, tasks or company data. Thanks to a Google Chrome extension, the AI chatbot can be used on any website.
Another interesting part of Rovo AI are the Rovo Agents, AI agents that automate repetitive tasks for employees. This leaves them more time for more important work. About 20 AI agents are available, each with its own expertise, such as writing comments on a new release or translating text. Users can also design their own agents to automate a specific workflow.
AI agents are gaining momentum; according to OpenAI, they will soon become mainstream. The latest new language models make conversations with AI agents feel smoother and more natural than ever before. Atlassian will gradually expand its AI agents and their skills. Now the company is already working with Appfire, Usertesting, Onward and Zapier.
