Agents in Jira verhogen de standaard voor wat elk team kan doen. Je hoeft geen engineer of AI-expert te zijn. Als je in Jira werkt, krijg je toegang tot dezelfde agentische patronen en automatiseringen. Dat is de echte kracht: mogelijkheden worden een eigenschap van het systeem, niet alleen van het individu.”
JEFF ARBOR, Head of Product Delivery and Automation
Agents in Jira raise the floor for what every team can do. You don't need to be an engineer or an AI expert. If you work in Jira, you get access to the same agentic patterns and automations. That's the real power—capability becomes a property of the system, not just the individual.”

[Jira] maakt het leven gemakkelijker. [We] kunnen nu meer tijd besteden aan waardevol werk in plaats van onbelangrijke bezigheden.”

Context that compounds as you scale
From specs to releases to incidents, software work inevitably fractures as you scale. Teams growing from startup to enterprise have trusted Jira to hold that context together for over 20 years.

Frequently asked questions
Is Jira a good alternative to Linear?
Jira is a strong fit for teams that need to scale AI-native software development across many teams and workflows. Linear is quick to set up for a single team, while Jira is built to support frontier teams, platform teams, ops teams, and business teams as an organization grows, with the governance and track record 300,000+ customers rely on.Can Jira scale from a startup to a large enterprise?
Yes. Jira has helped teams scale from their first startup launch to the world's largest enterprises for over 20 years. You can start with one team and one workflow, then expand across your whole organization when you're ready.Does Jira work with AI coding agents like Claude, Cursor, and Copilot?
Yes. Assign any work item to Claude, Cursor, Codex, GitHub Copilot, or the native Jira coding agent. Agents draw on full organizational context through the Atlassian Teamwork Graph, so they have the specs, decisions, and history they need before they write a line of code.How does Jira handle AI agent governance and permissions?
Jira gives admins explicit control over what agents can see and do, tied to your enterprise permission model. Every work item, review, and deploy traces back to a person, with audit trails and enterprise compliance built in: HIPAA, FedRAMP, and ISO 27001.Is Jira harder to set up than Linear?
Linear is quick to stand up for a single team. Jira is built to flex across many team types, so you can start simple with one team and one workflow, then scale when you're ready. That flexibility and range is why thousands of teams get started on Jira every year.
