Tool detail

Atlassian Rovo

Atlassian Rovo is strongest when the company already runs work through Jira, Confluence, Jira Service Management, or Teamwork Collection and wants AI bundled into that stack. Its core Rovo allowances are credit-pooled rather than a simple unlimited seat, while Rovo Dev is a separate $20/developer coding surface with its own credits and overage.

Updated because: Use the 350-credit path only after confirming site activation and eligibility. It can lower the cost of a tightly scoped pilot, but it is not a safe baseline for a company-wide Rovo Dev budget; otherwise model Standard at $20 per developer per month plus approved extra usage.

AgentHub review: Sep 5, 2026

Rovo is the strongest fit when Jira and Confluence are already the system of work. Treat core Rovo as a metered rollout before December 3, 2026. Verify the activated, site-level Rovo Dev Free entitlement before counting its 350 credits in a pilot budget; otherwise budget Rovo Dev Standard separately because its $20 seat price can add credit overage. Do not use the 30-day trial as CLI or IDE proof: it supports code reviews, while terminal and IDE validation needs paid Standard. Keep Jira Coding Agent evaluation separate from that developer-surface decision.

Choosing a tool

Strengths and limits

Check the reasons to choose it and the limitations.

Choosing a tool

  • Rovo's strongest buying case is that it can ride existing Atlassian subscriptions instead of starting as another separate AI contract.
  • Allowance math matters: 100 Confluence Premium users plus 50 Jira Premium users create 10,500 Rovo credits per month and 37,500 indexed objects before any Teamwork Collection uplift.
  • Rovo Dev makes Atlassian's AI story more credible for software teams, but it is still a separate $20/developer surface with 2,000 monthly Rovo Dev credits and default paid extra-usage headroom that admins should cap if budget predictability matters.

Trade-offs

  • Quota-based usage means the effective cost story can change as adoption grows.
  • It is less compelling if the organization's actual knowledge graph extends far beyond the Atlassian stack.
  • Compared with Glean, it is a weaker answer for open, cross-assistant enterprise context across many external tools.

FAQ

Common questions

Answers about pricing and usage terms.

What is Atlassian Rovo, and is it the same as Rovo Dev?
Rovo brings search, chat, and agents into Atlassian workflows. Core Rovo is included in eligible paid Atlassian Cloud plans and uses an organization-wide pool of Rovo credits. Rovo Dev is a separately priced developer product with its own credit allowance. The $20 developer price is Rovo Dev Standard's seat price, not the price of core Rovo. See Atlassian's Rovo licensing FAQ.
How much does Atlassian Rovo cost in Jira, Confluence, and Teamwork Collection?
Core Rovo is included with eligible paid Atlassian Cloud plans. Jira and Confluence include 25, 70, or 150 Rovo credits per user per month on Standard, Premium, or Enterprise; Service Collection and Teamwork Collection include 250, 700, or 1,500. Extra-usage billing is scheduled to take effect on December 3, 2026, with controls and spending limits available to admins.
How do Jira and Confluence Rovo credits add up?
Jira and Confluence each contribute 25, 70, or 150 credits per paid user per month on Standard, Premium, or Enterprise. Eligible allowances add into one organization-wide pool and refresh monthly. For example, 100 Confluence Premium users plus 50 Jira Premium users contribute (100 × 70) + (50 × 70) = 10,500 Rovo credits per month. Rovo Dev credits remain separate. See Atlassian's Rovo credit allowances; for developer-seat cost scenarios, use the Rovo Dev pricing guide.
How much is Rovo Dev?
Rovo Dev Standard is $20 per developer per month with 2,000 Rovo Dev credits per developer per month. Rovo Dev credits are separate from core Rovo credits, and Atlassian now documents a default extra-usage limit of another 2,000 Rovo Dev credits per user per month, billed at $0.01 per credit unless admins set tighter controls.
Is Rovo Dev Free a plan I can assume in our budget?
No. Atlassian's current billing and usage documentation calls Rovo Dev Free a site-level path with 350 credits per user per month per activated paid-Jira site, no paid extra usage, and a pause at the limit. Its public pricing FAQ says the free availability is limited and may be offered gradually to selected qualifying Jira Cloud sites. Confirm activation and eligibility first; otherwise budget Rovo Dev Standard at $20 per developer per month.
Who should worry most about Rovo's quota model?
Teams expecting broad company-wide adoption should watch it closely, because indexed-object and credit limits can turn an easy initial rollout into a more constrained operating model later. The included price point is attractive, but the real cost story depends on usage depth.
When is Atlassian Rovo a better buy than Glean?
Usually when the team already lives in Jira and Confluence and wants bundled search, chat, and agents without paying separately for a company-wide enterprise knowledge layer.
When does Rovo Dev make the Rovo decision more attractive?
Rovo Dev matters when software teams already live in Atlassian and want terminal AI and code review tied back to the same teamwork graph. It is less persuasive if engineering already standardized on a stronger standalone coding seat.
When is Rovo a weak fit even for an Atlassian customer?
It becomes weaker when the actual knowledge search problem spans many external systems and the buyer needs a more open enterprise layer. In that situation, Atlassian-native context alone is usually not enough.

Alternatives

When to consider an alternative to Atlassian Rovo

Rovo is easiest to keep when Jira, Confluence, Jira Service Management, or Atlassian collections are already the work graph. Otherwise, Glean, ChatGPT, Notion AI, or Microsoft 365 Copilot Business may match the real knowledge surface better.

Glean

Glean is the better alternative when enterprise search across many knowledge systems matters more than Atlassian-native agent workflows.

ChatGPT

ChatGPT is the better alternative when users need a broad assistant for analysis, writing, research, and mixed workflows beyond Atlassian.

Notion AI

Notion AI is a better alternative when docs, projects, meeting notes, and follow-through already live in Notion instead of Confluence and Jira.

Microsoft 365 Copilot Business

Microsoft 365 Copilot Business is stronger when Teams, Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Microsoft admin controls are the actual adoption surface.

Rovo Dev Free is a site-level eligibility path, not a universal free tier.

Current Atlassian billing and usage documentation describes Rovo Dev Free as 350 credits per user per month per activated paid-Jira site, with no paid extra usage and a pause at the limit. The public Rovo Dev pricing FAQ says free availability is limited and may be offered gradually to selected qualifying sites.

Rovo Dev's trial cannot validate CLI or IDE use, and Jira work is moving to Jira Coding Agent.

Atlassian's current trial documentation says the 30-day Rovo Dev Standard trial excludes Rovo Dev CLI and Rovo Dev in the IDE, while other generally available features including Bitbucket and GitHub code reviews remain available. It also says Rovo Dev in Jira is transitioning to Jira Coding Agent starting June 22, 2026; CLI, IDE, and AI code review remain Rovo Dev Standard capabilities.

Use the trial to test code-review workflow, credit allocation, and billing setup, not to assume terminal or IDE fit. Budget a paid Standard validation if those surfaces are decisive, and evaluate Jira Coding Agent as a separate product path.

Atlassian documents Rovo Dev default extra-usage headroom and admin limits

Atlassian's current Rovo Dev pricing and billing docs keep Rovo Dev Standard at $20 per developer per month with 2,000 included credits, but clarify that extra usage is $0.01 per credit with a default monthly extra-usage limit of 2,000 Rovo Dev credits per user and organization-admin controls for custom limits.

Engineering teams should model Rovo Dev as more than a flat $20 developer seat. The default extra-usage headroom can protect continuity but also creates a paid overage path unless admins review and cap site-level limits before broad rollout.

Atlassian clarified Rovo allowance pools and the separate Rovo Dev overage model

Atlassian's current Rovo usage and billing docs separate core Rovo credits from Rovo Dev credits, show higher Teamwork Collection allowances than the Jira, Confluence, and JSM rows, state that core Rovo over-allowance usage is not currently billed, and keep Rovo Dev Standard at $20 per developer per month with $0.01 per-credit extra usage.

Atlassian-centric buyers should model Jira, Confluence, JSM, and Teamwork Collection allowances separately instead of treating Rovo as one flat quota. The near-term risk of core Rovo overage billing is lower than a simple quota warning implies, but engineering teams still need a separate Rovo Dev budget and overage control.

Atlassian began rolling Rovo into paid Jira, Confluence, and JSM Cloud subscriptions

Atlassian support states that, starting April 9, 2025, Rovo is rolling out at no additional upfront cost to paid Jira, Confluence, and Jira Service Management Cloud plans, with included quotas and future usage-based charging to watch.

For Atlassian-centric teams, Rovo shifted from a separate AI experiment to a bundle-native option worth evaluating before buying another standalone knowledge assistant.

Pricing guideAtlassian Rovo pricing guideRovo Dev Standard costs $20 per developer per month for 2,000 credits that reset monthly. Extra usage is $0.01 per credit; Atlassian's published default extra-usage limit is another 2,000 credits, so the ordinary pre-tax planning range is $20–$40 per developer per month unless an admin changes that cap. A separate, eligibility-dependent Rovo Dev Free path gives an activated paid-Jira site 350 credits per user per month and has no paid extra usage. Do not confuse either Rovo Dev offer with core Rovo: Rovo Search, Chat, and Agents start at $0 incremental cost inside eligible paid Atlassian Cloud plans, with their own pooled allowances.Alternatives guideRead alternatives guideRovo is easiest to keep when Jira, Confluence, Jira Service Management, or Atlassian collections are already the work graph.
