AI workspace for knowledge management and team collaboration from Atlassian.
Confluence is a knowledge management platform that combines AI-powered content creation, team wikis, and collaborative documentation, with pricing starting free for up to 10 users and paid plans from $4.89 per user per month. It is designed for engineering, product, HR, marketing, and operations teams that need a single source of truth connected to project workflows. Founded by Atlassian in 2004, Confluence now supports over 75,000 customers worldwide and is used across Fortune 500 enterprises, scaling startups, and distributed teams.
The platform pairs long-form page editing with whiteboards, databases, video messages (Loom integration), and spaces that organize information by team, department, or project. Its Atlassian Intelligence layer can summarize long pages, generate first drafts from short prompts, translate content into multiple languages, suggest action items, and answer natural-language questions using your organization's existing Confluence and Jira content as context. Templates cover product requirements, meeting notes, strategic plans, OKRs, and onboarding, so new teams can spin up structured documentation without starting from a blank page.
Compared to the other knowledge management tools in our directory such as Notion, Coda, and Guru, Confluence stands out for its deep integration with Jira (over 280 million Jira users globally), its enterprise-grade governance features like Atlassian Guard, and its 3,000+ Marketplace apps for extending functionality. Based on our analysis of 870+ AI tools, it is one of the few knowledge platforms that combines wiki-style authoring with project management linkage, making it a natural fit for software and IT-aligned organizations already in the Atlassian ecosystem â though teams outside that ecosystem may find the interface heavier than lighter-weight modern alternatives.
Was this helpful?
A generative AI assistant integrated across the editor and search that drafts pages from prompts, summarizes long documents, translates content, and answers questions grounded in your Confluence and Jira data. It respects existing permissions so responses only reference content users can already access. Available on Premium and Enterprise plans.
Bi-directional linking between Confluence pages and Jira issues, epics, and boards lets teams embed live requirements, release notes, and status dashboards directly in documentation. Changes sync automatically so stakeholders always see current state. This is a core differentiator for software organizations already running Jira.
Spaces organize content by team, department, or project, while pages support rich long-form documentation with macros, tables, and embeds. Whiteboards add a visual canvas for brainstorming, roadmapping, and diagramming, and databases let teams structure information like lightweight tables with filters. All three live in the same editor experience.
Hundreds of ready-made templates cover product requirements, OKRs, meeting notes, decision records, incident retros, and onboarding plans. Smart Links auto-expand URLs from Jira, Figma, Google Docs, Loom, and other tools into rich previews inside a page, reducing context switching and keeping documents self-contained.
Atlassian Guard adds SAML SSO, SCIM provisioning, organization-wide audit logs, data classification, and data loss prevention policies. Enterprise customers get unlimited sites, data residency in multiple regions, and a 99.95% uptime SLA. These features make Confluence suitable for regulated industries and large multinational deployments.
