Five cool things about Rovo

By now, you probably know that Atlassian has an AI assistant named Rovo. But there's a good chance you haven't seen everything it can do. Here are five things that might change how you work:

1. It searches across ALL your tools, not just Atlassian apps

Rovo doesn't just search Jira and Confluence. It connects to Google Drive, Slack, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, Figma, and much more. That means you can ask one question and get answers based on info pulled from all your favorite applications.

2. You can build your own AI agents without writing any code

Anyone can create a custom Rovo agent tailored to their specific needs. Agents can triage bug reports, draft meeting notes, or answer onboarding questions. You define what it knows, what it can do, and who can use it.

3. It works inside the products you're already using

Rovo isn't a separate app. It lives right where you’re already working inside Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket, and your browser. Ask it to summarize a page, explain a ticket, or suggest next steps without breaking your flow.

4. There's a free certification you can earn right now

The Rovo Fundamentals certification on Atlassian Learning is completely free. It walks you through what Rovo can do, how to use it effectively, and how to build agents. When you’re done, you can complete a free exam and earn a credential to show off your new knowledge.

5. It can take action, not just answer questions

Rovo is more than a friendly chatbot. It can do things like draft a meeting agenda in Confluence, create JSM tickets, generate a project plan, assign work items, and more. Think of it less like search and more like a teammate to help you get things done.

Let us know!

Great roundup! 💙 I've already explored these features, but it's always nice to see them all in one place. Happy to leave a comment and help plant another tree! 🌳

I love it!

I completed this certification in October 2025. One of the most valuable takeaways was understanding how Rovo integrates with Atlassian tools to improve collaboration, streamline workflows, and unlock AI-powered productivity across teams.

We are in the process of rolling out Rovo.  I am looking forward to exploring more about it and perhaps more importantly use it in my daily work.

I'm still a newbie in the world of Rovo, but I think the certification might help me shake some of the nerves around another new AI tool 😅 

[Barbara Szczesniak]

I was not aware of the free certification. It would be nice to go through everything in one place, rather than trying things out in response to the various Rovo announcements and articles posted in the community.

Favorite thing I've had Rovo do so far: create a process flow diagram based on the content in a parent page/child pages section of my Confluence documentation.

Rovo delights me at every turn. My research assistant when I'm in dig mode, and my Ride Or Die when the rubber meets the road. I love watching the Rovo fan base grow!

Loved this article with all the features at one place 🫶🏼

I have tried all the features at my daily work. I have also completed the certification in April 2026 and had created a documentation about it.

[Tomislav Tobijas]

Rovo does everything for me (maybe sometimes even does too much 😅) 
Today, I was basically just prompting Rovo to create new items, update existing ones, scan through docs and create new ones, and so on. I probably did all of those things within an hour or 2 which would usually take more than half a day. 🐢

It's really cool what Rovo (and MCP connectors) can do! 🙌

Nice usage of Rovo is to summarize things that change since we left / log in (or specific date) from all sources. Never miss a single announcement or important change when you are offline and want to be back on track quickly! :)
