Create status updates with Rovo
Rovo helps you and your team work more effectively by turning recent activity on a focus area into a structured draft status update, making it easier to keep stakeholders informed early and often. Powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning, Rovo is integrated directly into our cloud-based Atlassian apps.
Focus area updates keep everyone in sync through short, high-signal updates that highlight progress, new risks, and major blockers. Rovo drafts from the goals, work, and sub-focus areas already connected to your focus area, so you start from a draft rather than a blank update.

Use Rovo to draft a status update
The Draft with Rovo experience for status updates is currently in beta, and we'll continue to make changes and improvements to the feature.
Go to the focus area you want to write an update for.
Choose a template to set the structure of your update in the dropdown next to the “Draft with Rovo” button in the update composer.
Select Draft with Rovo in the update composer.
Wait while Rovo drafts your update.
Review the content and make sure it's accurate. Then, save the update as a draft or publish it.
Choose a template for your update
A template sets the structure Rovo uses when it drafts your update. Choose the template that matches the altitude of Focus area you're writing an update, so you spend less time reshaping the draft afterwards.
Go to the focus area you want to write an update for.
On the Updates tab, open the update composer.
Select the dropdown next to Draft with Rovo, then choose a template.
Select Draft with Rovo. Rovo writes your update using the structure of the template you chose.
To use the same template every time, set it as your default. These are the available templates:
High-level summary: Summarize progress, highlights, decisions, launches, and risks. Use this to give leaders a clear overview of the most important details.
Sub-focus area brief: Summarize highlights, updates, and risks across all sub-focus areas. Use this to give leaders a scannable brief of focus area status.
Delivery update: Report on what moved and slipped, risks, and decisions needed to continue delivering. Use this to give leaders a clear overview of delivery status.

Save an update as a draft
If you can't finish an update in one sitting, you can save it as a draft and come back to it later. This works whether you wrote the update yourself or started with Draft with Rovo.
