The fastest teams didn't switch to a better AI model. They gave their AI memory. At Atlassian Team 2026 they showed us the next evolution of AI capabilities: 150 billion connected objects across an organization, an agent reviewing 2 billion lines of code in 2 minutes, and 44% better answers using half the tokens. Inside teams, the change is concrete: a junior analyst gets years of knowledge instantly, and a product leader can oversee an entire enterprise's deployment.

Our guest, Jamil Valliani leads AI product at Atlassian, where he has spent three years building the context layer that will help 300,000 companies. They also shocked everyone by announcing that the Teamwork Graph — is open to be connected to your work in Microsoft, Adobe, and Google.

In this episode you'll learn:

Why Atlassian made their context graph open
Evidence that context improves token usage
What the future of work will look like
The key to delivering value at scale
