Why Teamwork Collection is a game-changer for modern collaboration

I’ve spent over two decades working with organizations of every shape and size in the IT industry. I’ve seen teams thrive when tools support transparency, and I’ve seen them struggle when systems create silos. That’s why I’m genuinely excited about Atlassian’s new Teamwork Collection.

This isn’t just another product bundle. It’s a strategic shift in enabling cross-functional collaboration, meaningfully using AI, and moving toward a truly connected System of Work. This marks a turning point for teams looking to break free from disjointed tools and fragmented workflows.

Let me explain what’s new, why it matters, and how it compares to other options in the market.

What is the Teamwork Collection?

At its core, the Teamwork Collection is a thoughtfully curated suite of Atlassian tools—Jira, Confluence, Loom, and Rovo AI agents, designed to help teams work smarter together. It's available through a single SKU, meaning it’s easier to buy, roll out, and manage across your organization.

More importantly, it’s built on a shared data foundation called the Teamwork Graph, which means your tools aren’t just connected; they’re speaking the same language. When your knowledge, goals, work, and communications are unified, collaboration stops being a chore and becomes a catalyst.

What’s included?

• Jira: Plan, track, and manage work at scale.
• Confluence: Document and share knowledge seamlessly.
• Loom: Record and share video messages to reduce unnecessary meetings.
• Rovo AI agents: Your new AI teammates—context-aware, proactive, and deeply embedded across tools.

Each tool is powerful on its own. But when used together in the Teamwork Collection, the experience is fluid, frictionless, and deeply intelligent.

Why it matters

Let’s be honest: Most companies already have too many tools. What they lack is clarity—clarity of information, ownership, and purpose. They also lack true alignment between business and technical teams. The Teamwork Collection tackles this head-on by:

• Eliminating silos: Everything you need (projects, pages, people) is connected and searchable.
• Boosting transparency: Everyone sees the same goals, work, and outcomes.
• Making AI useful: Rovo doesn’t just suggest things; it acts, learns, and supports actual outcomes.
• Connecting work end-to-end: From idea to Jira board with all the context in between.

I’ve always believed that transparency builds trust, and trust builds high-performing teams. The Teamwork Collection helps make transparency the default.

Competitive comparison: How does it stack up?

Let’s look at how Atlassian’s Teamwork Collection compares to other major platforms:

Bottom line: If your organization wants to bridge the gap between business and tech, reduce tool bloat, and unlock AI's real value, Teamwork Collection is a category-defining step forward.

Real-world use cases

Here’s what the future of teamwork looks like with these capabilities:

• A product manager records a Loom video to explain a new feature idea.
• Rovo AI instantly generates a summary, creates Jira tickets, and adds a Confluence page for feedback.
• The team refines the plan in Confluence, using whiteboards and AI-generated diagrams.
• The development process is tracked in Jira, with real-time insights and goal alignment visible to leadership.

Everything is visible. Everything is connected. Everyone stays in sync.

Cost, plans, and availability

The Teamwork Collection Premium and Enterprise plans are available starting April 9, 2025, and a Standard plan will be available later this summer.

Up to 40% of savings can be realized versus buying these tools separately, and administrative overhead can be massively reduced. For organizations with seat overlap across Jira, Confluence, and Loom, this is not just a smarter way to work—it’s a smarter way to spend.

Final thoughts from my perspective

I’ve seen countless teams struggle with tool fatigue, duplicate work, and the inability to scale good practices beyond individual teams.

The Teamwork Collection addresses these pain points with:

• A clear system of record for all teams.
• Transparent collaboration built in by design.
• A next-generation AI experience that doesn’t feel bolted on.
• A simpler path to modernizing your organization’s way of working.

If you’ve been looking for a way to standardize collaboration across business and tech, unlock AI's potential, and reduce tool chaos, this is it. The Teamwork Collection isn’t just a bundle. It’s a blueprint for better work.
