Atlassian Intelligence: The AI Game-Changer for Jira & Confluence Admins & Users

As many of you know I have always been an Atlassian Fan Girl for a long time due to the portability and partnerships that Atlassian tools have. I know, I know, Agile is about People over Tools, but as a PM, I can go to any client and take a mess of a project and have it organized in record time to identify dysfunction and gain actionable insights to help teams recover.

You might be wondering why I used a photo of my Ancona duck Batman for the cover of this article. Today I would like to talk to you about Atlassian Intelligence and how it is as intuitive to use as a duck taking to water. Let us face it, we all had so much going on in 2023 struggling to stay afloat amongst the chaos that many of us may have missed this awesome release from Atlassian.

My thoughts as a PM or Agile Professional:

I love how I can input more intelligent search parameters than traditional filters, and strings, and export to manage data when I encounter reporting limitations. I will again caution that your results will be as good as the quality of the content in the user stories that you create. This is why it is important to have standards with the team as to mandatory and optional fields in Jira. As with any AI tool, the results are only as good as the data that feeds it. I also see the value here for multiple collaborations on a project with a shared goal. I feel this tool will add insight and ability to help RTE and PMs. I am also quite fond of the summary of Confluence documentation.
