Finally, April is coming to an end and Atlassian Team ’26 is just around the corner. In a few weeks, the ActivityTimeline team will be landing in California and heading straight to the Expo Hall — ready for three days of real conversations about capacity, workload, and planning that actually works.
You’ll find us at Booth 201.
Every year, Team is full of big ideas: AI, transformation, scale. But beneath all of that, most growing organizations are still wrestling with a much more fundamental issue — understanding who has capacity and when.
On paper, everything looks structured in Jira. Sprints are planned. Estimates are added. Priorities are clear. Yet deadlines slip. The same people are overloaded. Others sit underutilized. New tickets are assigned based on assumptions instead of actual availability.
That’s not a tooling problem. It’s a visibility problem.
ActivityTimeline exists to close that gap. We help teams see real capacity across individuals and teams, understand workload distribution over time, and forecast delivery before commitments are made. Instead of reacting to burnout or missed deadlines, managers can proactively rebalance work based on real data.
At Team ’26, we’ll be focusing on how organizations can move beyond basic task tracking and into structured, forward-looking capacity planning inside Jira.
We’ll demonstrate how to visualize workload across multiple teams from a single view, switch seamlessly between individual and team-level perspectives, and plan based on actual available hours — not theoretical sprint capacity. We’ll also show how time tracking data connects directly to planning, giving leaders a realistic picture of effort versus assumptions.
The goal is simple: fewer surprises, fewer last-minute escalations, and far more predictable delivery.
If you’ve ever asked, “Who can realistically take this on next week?” — we should talk.
We’re not coming to Anaheim with abstract frameworks. We’re coming to hear what’s actually breaking in your planning process.
🎙️ How Do You Really Know If Your Team Is Overloaded?
With Svitlana Samotis
Let’s talk about how to spot overload early, balance work realistically, and use visibility (not guesswork) to make better planning decisions.
🎙️ If Work Lives in Jira, Should Budgets Live There Too?
With Svitlana Samotis
We’ll explore whether financial visibility belongs inside your workflow — and how connecting work, time, and budget changes the way teams make decisions.
🎙️ How Are You Managing Costs and Budgets in Jira?
With Nadiia Karabchuk
Join the discussion to exchange approaches, challenges, and practical ways to bring cost transparency into everyday project management.
Before the Expo Hall opens and the keynotes begin, we’re kicking off Team ’26 week at Build IT Together, the two-day, in-person training event designed for practitioners who want to go deeper than surface-level best practices.
ActivityTimeline is proud to sponsor this year’s edition — and we’re bringing a session that tackles one of the most persistent blind spots in Jira planning.
🎙️ Stop Guessing Capacity: Using Planned vs. Actual to Drive Better Decisions
In this session, Svitlana Samotis will walk through how comparing planned versus actual work across users, teams, and projects exposes the gap between intention and execution. Because that gap is where missed deadlines, overload, and inaccurate forecasts are born.
Using ActivityTimeline, she’ll demonstrate how teams can capture planned capacity, track actual time, and analyze the variance in a way that’s practical — not theoretical.
If you’re exploring co-marketing, ecosystem collaboration, or partnership opportunities around Jira planning and resource management, this is also the perfect time to connect.
Yuliia Hushcha has dedicated partner meeting slots to book during Team week. If that’s on your radar, book early — calendars fill up fast once the event begins.
