TriloWhy teams choose Trilo over Confluence

TL;DR

A deeper look at the features that matter.
Docs That Connect to Conversations
Confluence pages live in isolation. Team discussions about a doc happen in Slack or Jira comments, disconnected from the document itself. Trilo puts your docs alongside real-time chat and video calls so the conversation about the work stays with the work.
Independent of Any Ecosystem
Confluence works with Jira but is limited without it. Tasks need Jira, boards need Trello, chat needs Slack. Trilo gives you docs, tasks, boards, chat, and video in one independent workspace. No ecosystem dependency, no additional subscriptions.
AI Coworkers Across Your Workspace
Confluence AI helps edit pages. Trilo AI coworkers work across your entire workspace: they join group conversations, transcribe video calls, create tasks from meeting notes, and draft documentation. They operate as autonomous teammates, not page-level assistants.
