Connect Jira to your AI agent
A tool for bug tracking, issue tracking, and agile project management.
We set up the connection using your own Jira account, with keys you control, and keep it running. Your agent picks it up and starts doing the work.

FAQ
Jira questions, answered.
You sign in with your own Jira account. Permissions are scoped to the minimum the agent needs, the connection is health-checked, and you can revoke access from Jira at any time.
The actions Jira's API allows, the same things a person clicking around the app could do. Connections start read-only by default; write actions are confirmed against the policy you set before the agent takes them.
Connections are priced per tool on top of the base plan. Some are included, some are premium. See pricing for how connection charges work.
Standard tools are ready inside 7 business days of the setup call. We test the connection end to end, walk you through how the agent uses it, and watch the first week of activity.
