Atlassian's enterprise issue tracking platform with AI-powered backlog management, summarization, and sprint intelligence.
About Jira AI
Jira is Atlassian's industry-standard issue and project tracking platform for software development teams, now enhanced with Atlassian Intelligence—an AI layer that brings generative AI capabilities to backlog management, sprint planning, and release operations. Atlassian Intelligence can generate issue descriptions from brief inputs, summarize long comment threads on complex tickets, auto-fill issue fields based on context, and break down epics into stories automatically. The AI-powered sprint intelligence feature analyzes historical velocity data and current sprint composition to predict completion likelihood and flag risks before sprint end. Jira's virtual agent in Jira Service Management uses AI to automatically triage and resolve common IT service requests without human intervention. With over 65,000 enterprise customers including Amazon, Spotify, and Airbnb, Jira remains the most widely deployed project management platform in software development despite competition from newer alternatives.
