Jira Planner is an AI planning agent in Jira that turns high-level product requirements into ready-to-build plans (requirements, technical specs, and Jira work items) grounded in your actual codebase, architecture, and Confluence context. In this video, you'll see how Jira Planner brings due diligence to the pre-build phase, so engineers and AI coding agents start from a plan that reflects the real code instead of a vague prompt. It's useful for product managers, engineering leads, and developers who want to cut the rework that comes from AI guessing at requirements.

Enterprise AI is only useful when it actually runs in production, inside the tools teams already depend on. Getting there is harder than it sounds. Forward Deployed Engineers at Atlassian work directly inside some of the world's largest organizations, building AI-powered agents, connectors, and workflows on Atlassian's platform. They work alongside customers to understand the real constraints, design solutions that hold up at scale, and see them through to deployment.

In the Startup Stories with Atlassian series, we interview founders about their entrepreneurial journey, learn about the problems they are trying to solve, and explore how their teams are using Atlassian tools to grow and deliver value to their customers. In this episode of Startup Stories with Atlassian, Adam sits down with Stan Suchkov, Founder and CEO of Evolve, to explore why pivoting isn't the failure most founders fear – and why the best founders do it deliberately, quickly, and without losing their team in the process.
