Today, we're excited to announce that we're bringing Rovo to Atlassian Goals and Projects. Keeping stakeholders confident in project health depends on clear, consistent updates – but writing them takes time. If you’ve ever stared at an empty status box wondering what to write, you’re not alone. Rovo‑powered status updates (beta) give Goals and Projects a head start, so your teams can spend more time doing the work and less time reporting on it. With Rovo-powered status updates, your teams can:
-
Turn raw progress into clear, structured project updates in seconds
-
Shorten long, detailed goal updates into concise summaries with one click
-
Keep stakeholders aligned with updates that are easier to scan and understand

How it works
Rovo does the digging and drafting, but your team members decide what’s important and what actually gets published.
For Projects, when you ask Rovo to help with an update, it:
-
Looks at your Atlassian Project and related Jira work items
-
Uses recent changes in Teamwork Graph as signals
-
Turns that into a draft update you can review, edit, shorten, and publish
-
Helps your team call out key changes, risks, and upcoming milestones, so project health is clearer for stakeholders
So instead of writing from scratch, you start from a smart draft based on meaningful progress your team has made that week.
For Goals, Rovo focuses on tidying up long, detailed updates, so stakeholders can quickly understand the key insights at a glance. When goal owners write an update, they can use Rovo to shorten the text into a concise, scannable summary, making it faster for leaders and stakeholders to see what changed.
Over time, clearer, more consistent updates make it easier for stakeholders to see how work has evolved, understand why decisions were made, and spot where risks tend to arise across projects and goals.
Managing AI for Goals and Projects
AI will be automatically activated for Goals and Projects. Existing customers may see AI disabled, depending on their organization’s existing AI settings. You can activate AI for Goals and Projects at any time in Atlassian Administration.
What to expect and when
We’ll start rolling out this beta experience mid-March. You’ll see an in‑product notification in Atlassian Administration when it’s live. To learn more, visit the support documentation.
