Atlassian is an Australian-American software company specializing in collaboration and project management tools. Founded in 2002 by Mike Cannon-Brookes and Scott Farquhar after they graduated from the University of New South Wales, the company was bootstrapped with a $10,000 credit card debt. Atlassian is globally headquartered in Sydney, Australia, with a US headquarters in San Francisco. Mike Cannon-Brookes is the CEO. The company operates under the principle that "software should be bought, not sold," utilizing a self-service purchase experience rather than a traditional sales team.
Atlassian's core products include Jira, a project and issue tracking tool, and Confluence, a team collaboration platform. Other notable products are Trello, a visual project management tool, and Bitbucket, a Git-based code management service. The company has been increasing its investment in AI, with new AI-driven products like Rovo. Recent news includes Atlassian's second quarter fiscal year 2026 results, which showed a 23% increase in revenue compared to the previous year. However, AI concerns have led TD Cowen to lower Atlassian's price target to $140.00. As of February 2026, Atlassian's market capitalization is approximately $24.06 billion.
