Swarmit at Team ’25: How Atlassian Is Powering the Future of Work

Here are the key takeaways we’re most excited about and what they could mean for your team.

🤖 Say hello to Rovo: Your new smart teammate

Atlassian unveiled Rovo, a new AI-powered teammate designed to make work easier across the board. It’s not just a tool, it’s a shift in how teams interact with their information and processes.

More importantly, its available in all paid Jira, Confluence and JSM subscriptions!

• Rovo Studio lets you build powerful automations using AI agents to streamline repetitive work.
• Rovo Chat is a conversational interface that helps you retrieve information, create tasks, and get things done through simple prompts.
• Rovo Deep Search goes beyond keywords, search across Confluence, Jira, and even third-party apps to surface exactly what you need.
• Enterprise Search takes this organization-wide, connecting silos and making knowledge more accessible than ever.

🎥 Loom + Atlassian: Next-Level Collaboration

One of the standout highlights was how Loom is being integrated across the Atlassian ecosystem. It’s not just for video anymore, now it’s an AI-powered communication tool.

• Record a meeting or workflow and Loom + Rovo will generate meeting notes and action items, automatically adding them to Confluence.
• Found a bug while testing? Loom can auto-create Jira issues based on video transcripts while serving as test evidence.
• Rovo can also enhance Jira tickets, generate subtasks, and even write or review code from requirements captured through Loom.

This combination brings a whole new meaning to “show, don’t tell.”

Atlassian Collections: Tools, Templates & Best Practices — All in One Place

Atlassian also introduced Collections! These are compiled experiences that bundle the right apps, templates, and practices to help teams start faster and stay aligned. Whether you're focused on day-to-day collaboration or big-picture planning, these Collections bring structure without slowing you down.

Teamwork Collection - Designed for teams that live in the details, the builders, doers, and planners.

Strategy Collection - Designed to support teams driving business impact, whether you're setting OKRs, managing initiatives or aligning cross-functional programs.

This is a part of Atlassian's System of Work which provides a blueprint for organisations to make it easy for all teams to collaborate and move in the same direction, fast.

‍Atlassian’s HR Service Management (HRSM) Just Got Smarter

At Swarmit we support teams across various industries, therefore the updates to HRSM offering are a game changer for people teams:

• Offering a library of 29 ready-to-use project templates to launch HR workflows faster.

New Customer Service Management (CSM) App

Atlassian also introduced a brand-new Customer Service Management (CSM) app, designed to provide modern support experiences with minimal setup.
