Rovo
What is Rovo?
Rovo is an AI assistant built into Confluence that helps you work faster and smarter. It can answer questions about your spaces and pages, summarize long content, draft or refine writing, and help you find the right information.
It works with the content within the University Wiki Service and only shows what you’re allowed to see, respecting existing permissions and access controls.
Rovo is your organization’s AI assistant that works alongside you in Confluence. It can understand natural language, draw on your existing content and knowledge, and help you create, refine, and discover information so you can work more efficiently and make better decisions.
What can Rovo do for you?
Using Rovo within Confluence provides several components that help you search, understand, and create content.
Rovo Chat
Rovo Chat is an AI-powered conversational assistant that you can use directly from Confluence.
What it is: a chat interface where you can ask questions, get explanations, and request help with content-related tasks.
Where it appears: typically accessible from the Ask Rovo button near the top right corner of each page and when browsing content within a page.
Common use cases:
asking questions about Confluence content and getting concise answers
getting help drafting or refining page content
clarifying terminology, concepts, and decisions documented in your spaces
Rovo Search
Rovo Search lets you use natural language to search across Confluence and other Atlassian content that you can access.
Natural language search: you can describe what you are looking for in everyday language instead of relying only on exact keywords.
Cross-product results: results can include pages, spaces, and other Atlassian items based on your access and configuration.
Using Rovo to add content to pages
Rovo can help you create and edit Confluence page content directly from within the editor or via chat, depending on how it is enabled in your site.
Drafting new content:
generate initial drafts for pages such as proposals, runbooks, and meeting notes based on a short prompt
create structured sections that you can then review and edit
Rewriting and refining:
rewrite selected text for clarity, brevity, or a different tone
expand or condense existing sections while keeping the original intent
Generating tables and lists:
turn unstructured text into bullet or numbered lists
suggest table structures to organize information such as tasks, owners, and statuses
Capturing action items:
extract action items from meeting notes or long pages into a concise list
help format action items with owners and due information you provide
Summarizing content
Rovo can summarize Confluence content so you can understand key points without reading an entire page.
Page summaries:
generate concise overviews of long or complex pages
highlight sections that may need attention or follow-up
Key takeaways and highlights:
list major decisions, risks, or milestones captured in a page
surface important details that can be easy to miss in long text
Audio briefs (where available):
in some configurations, Rovo can generate an audio brief based on a page summary
audio briefs provide a spoken overview that can be used to review content without reading the page
Rovo Definitions
Rovo can help standardize and clarify terminology by defining acronyms and terms based on your content.
Context-aware definitions:
infer the meaning of acronyms and domain-specific terms from how they are used in your spaces
surface relevant pages where a term is introduced or explained
Consistent terminology:
encourage consistent use of terms across pages by referencing shared definitions
help new team members understand project-specific language more quickly
Rovo Agents
Rovo Agents are specialized assistants that focus on particular tasks or workflows and can work with your Atlassian content.
What agents are:
configurable AI helpers tailored to specific domains such as documentation, support, or project management
they use your content and configuration to perform targeted tasks
Examples of tasks agents can perform:
draft and maintain documentation based on requirements or incident records
review pages for gaps or inconsistencies against defined guidelines
summarize support tickets or project updates into Confluence pages
How agents help automate workflows:
reduce manual steps for recurring documentation and reporting tasks
standardize how information is captured and presented across teams
integrate with your existing Atlassian setup so that outputs appear where teams already work
