ArchyAssistant: documented requirements and portfolio insight in Jira

New requirements usually arrive as documents, with gaps. ArchyAssistant takes them in, asks the questions that fill the gaps, and turns the answers into fully documented feature requests in Jira: backlog, architecture documents and clear requirements, written to your organisation's standards. Export PRDs and architecture documents to Confluence for the whole team. Across projects, ArchyAssistant turns Jira and Confluence changes into executive summaries, so leaders can follow the work as it speeds up.

For product owners, delivery and portfolio leads, and the executives who follow their work in Jira Cloud.

How it works

From an intake document to documented work in Jira.

  1. Install and set your standards.

    Add ArchyAssistant from the Atlassian Marketplace, then define how your organisation writes user stories, structures its backlog and what PRDs and solution architecture documents must contain.

  2. Bring in the requirements.

    Add an intake document with new requirements. Output from ArchyStarter can also flow into ArchyAssistant through the ArchyAssistant APIs.

  3. Answer guided questions.

    ArchyAssistant asks about what is missing or unclear, and builds on your answers.

  4. Get fully documented feature requests.

    Backlog items, architecture documents and clear requirements, written to your standards. Export PRDs and architecture documents to Confluence.

  5. Refine individual items.

    Refine, split and improve stories and epics so they meet the same standards.

  6. Follow progress across projects.

    Read executive summaries for each project and for the whole organisation, built from Jira and Confluence changes.

Part of the Archy AI Platform

Built for Jira, connected to the Archy AI Platform.

ArchyAssistant is a Jira app built on Atlassian Forge and on the Archy AI Platform. When you want more, create dedicated agents for its workflows: they run on the Archy AI Platform, you manage them in ArchyAgents, and they can connect to ArchyKnowledgebase for knowledge retrieval tailored to your organisation. ArchyStarter, a standalone application, turns an idea into an initial product definition, and its output can flow into ArchyAssistant through the ArchyAssistant APIs. You install and use ArchyAssistant from Jira; the other Archy products are optional.
