Re:Atlassian to buy Loom for nearly $1B by faramarz on Thursday October 12, 2023 @12:14PM (#37859215)
I think it's more likely that Atlassian gives it away for free to it's client base .. groups like Linear are coming after them and tools like Loom make a material difference in getting quality work out the door. we use it for outward facing and training material, but the royal honey is when you can async-align on product initiates down to the pixel.

Figma on the other hand will have to sway towards Atlassian territory to add value to the other parts of the pipeline.. the dev mode has made it clear they are headed that way, on their own terms.

Atlassian gives not much out for free the new whiteboard feature in confluence will also be monetizes like everything.

E.g. automations for their products will cost soon meaning you need to upgrade your product to next tier. After we implemented everywhere...
