Atlassian announced it’s laying off roughly 10% of its global workforce — about 1,600 people — to redirect resources toward AI development and enterprise sales. Restructuring costs are expected to reach up to $236 million.

The company also replaced its Chief Technology Officer with two new AI-focused CTOs. That’s not a succession. That’s a signal about where the org chart is being reorganized around.

Atlassian makes Jira, Confluence, and Trello — collaboration and project management tools embedded in tens of thousands of enterprise workflows. The play is presumably to layer AI agents into those products and charge more for the intelligence layer.

OpenAI has crossed $25 billion in annualized revenue and is reportedly taking early steps toward a public listing — potentially before the end of 2026.

Anthropic is not far behind, approaching $19 billion in annualized revenue. Both numbers represent growth that would have seemed implausible two years ago.

For context: OpenAI’s revenue in 2023 was around $1.6 billion. The AI model market has compressed a decade of typical SaaS scaling into about 24 months. That’s not organic enterprise adoption — it’s a platform shift, and the numbers are reflecting that.
