"Talks between Atlassian and The Browser Company began a year ago, according to the latter's CEO, Josh Miller. Many Atlassian employees were already using Arc and wanted more enterprise features like security, privacy, and management tools. As AI became a priority for businesses, both sides saw alignment. Mike Cannon-Brookes, Atlassian's CEO, proposed joining forces to accelerate AI development and enterprise readiness. The deal is focused on Dia, which launched in June. Dia combines a browser with an AI assistant that works across apps."
"The system will work like ChatGPT or Google's AI Overviews, using large language models. The tool will include text, photos, video, and local recommendations. It will also summarise results for faster, more accurate answers. Meanwhile, OpenAI is building a hiring platform to compete with LinkedIn. OpenAI Jobs Platform will launch by mid-2026, according to a spokesperson. It will use AI to match companies with workers and include a track for small businesses and local governments seeking AI talent."
Atlassian is buying The Browser Company for USD$610m (£454m) in cash, gaining control of the Arc browser and the AI-powered Dia. The Browser Company will continue to operate as an independent entity. Talks began a year ago as many Atlassian employees already used Arc and wanted enterprise features like security, privacy, and management tools. Dia, launched in June, combines a browser with an AI assistant that works across apps and offers Atlassian a way to integrate its tools into a single intelligent workflow. Apple plans a Siri-integrated AI search called World Knowledge Answers using large language models. OpenAI is building a Jobs Platform to match companies and workers, launching by mid-2026.
