Financial Times reports Atlassian is the hardest-hit major SaaS company in the "SaaSpocalypse" — systematic compression of developer seat counts as AI agents reduce headcount for software development. Jira and Confluence face direct substitution pressure as coding agents handle issue triage, documentation, and project tracking autonomously. The market is pricing in structural seat compression, not a cyclical dip.
