Atlassian welcomes the Browser Company of New York to build an AI browser for knowledge work

[#1]

Hi, Atlassian Community!

Today, we’re excited to share that we’ve entered into an agreement to acquire The Browser Company of New York, the team behind the incredible Dia and Arc browsers.

By combining The Browser Company’s passion for building browsers people love with Atlassian’s deep expertise on how the world’s best teams operate, we have the opportunity to transform how work gets done in the AI era.

It’s time for a browser that helps you do, not just browse.

Take a look at the announcement and below, a personal message from Mike Cannon-Brookes about why he’s stoked about this opportunity. 

As always, Mike and the whole team would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

This is a bold and exciting move! 🚀

Incredible. And the new Jira UI/UX is still terrible, and there's no way to go back to the old one.

[Dirk Ronsmans]

Interesting move! Trying it out and who knows might switch from Chrome.

It sure feels "snappy" :)

@marcinnowak sorry to hear you're not having a good experience! If you want to chat with the team about the Jira UX, they're in the New Navigation product feedback group and are open to feedback.

Congrats! This could be a real game-changer 🚀

[Matthias Stingl]

Interesting news @Monique vdB! I am very excited to see what improvements this acquisition will bring! 🚀

[Dave Liao]

This was NOT on my Atlassian bingo card, but I'm here for it! ✨

Looking forward to crossing paths with the Browsers in NYC!

When can we experience the new integration?

This acquisition is highly commendable. I have been utilizing Arc for the past two years, and I am thoroughly satisfied with its ability to enhance my work organization. I eagerly anticipate exploring Dia. This is yet another triumph for Atlassian users.

Maybe now you can consider fixing the issue in Arc browser? :D

Exciting news—Arc and Dia are amazing browsers, and this feels like a smart move for Atlassian! Can’t wait to see how this shapes productivity in the AI space. Just a reminder while exploring new tools: steer clear of shady links like “Hack Blox Fruit official site” — they’re usually traps. Looking forward to what’s next!

I'm pretty pumped to use Dia on the daily...

I just need tab groups, and I'll make the switch. 😁
