Interestingly, Confluence doesn't have a 2 way sync with Jira. You can embed Jira tickets but you can't push content from Confluence to Jira and automatically create tickets.

Aside from that, we've designed Fable to be customized for the product team workflow - with features like the decision feed, zippy content editing, etc.

We also work with Linear, which has a fast growing user base

You can push content from Confluence into Jira, it's been around for years [1] but this functionality does need to improve. At the same time, Atlassian has also has created Jira Product Discovery which is currently in closed beta [2]

Sorry, I should have been more clear. In Confluence you can highlight content and create a ticket - it just prefills the title of the ticket to be the highlighted content. You still have to fill in the description. Then after pushing it to Jira there's no ongoing sync.

Fable has a true push + sync, where the live content in the editor is continuously sync'ed with Jira. This means you can keep editing product requirements in the place that your whole team lives (marketing, design, sales, of course eng) and not worry about tickets going stale
