A deeper look at the features that matter.
Skip the Configuration Marathon
Jira requires workflow schemes, issue types, screen schemes, permission schemes, and notification schemes before your team writes a single task. Trilo gets you productive in minutes with sensible defaults and a clean interface that does not need an admin.
Communication Where Work Happens
Jira has no built-in messaging. Teams rely on Slack or Microsoft Teams alongside Jira, splitting context between tools. Trilo puts real-time chat, threaded discussions, and video calls right next to your tasks so conversations and work stay connected.
AI That Participates, Not Just Assists
Atlassian Intelligence helps with JQL queries and summaries. Trilo AI coworkers join your group conversations, transcribe video calls, create tasks from meeting discussions, and work autonomously on your projects around the clock.
