I can’t even imagine why Anthropic would need Atlassian. Atlassian doesn’t even have an MCP server built in—you have to set up an external one.

And Anthropic could build something just as good using its own tool with blackjack and hookers. (In fact, forget the park!(с))

They get to skip 20 years of figuring out how work gets done in different industries if they can train on the information from everyone’s Jira and Confluence and whatever else Atlassian sells. That data makes Cowork and Claude better. And then you have an advantage that is more than just having the best model (which others are catching up on). It’s harder to catch up on this data moat.
data, lock in, and an acceleration of go to market penetration?
