Atlassian Jira revamps automation quotas: renames rule runs, tightens caps
What happened
Between the Aug 31, 2026 and Sep 7, 2026 captures of Atlassian's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Automation quota metric renamed from 'rule runs' to 'automation steps' with new per-plan caps: Free 100->150/subscription/mo, Standard 1,700/mo flat->400/user/mo, Premium 1,000->750/user/mo, Enterprise Unlimited->1,000/user/mo (now capped). Pulse files it as a packaging change (metric change). Pulse's latest capture (Nov 15, 2026) lists Standard at $7.92 and Premium at $16.25.
This weekly roll-up includes the change Pulse first recorded in a shorter period: "Atlassian Jira overhauls automation limits, renames rule runs to steps" (Day 245, 2026, saved Sep 2, 2026). It is the same change, not a new one. Before that, Atlassian's previous recorded change was "Atlassian Jira adds AI hub with Agents, Rovo Studio; renames Issue to work item" (Aug 17, 2026). Atlassian has been tracked since 2023-11-14.
In the same window Microsoft, GitLab, Asana and monday.com also changed their Project Management pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
