Asana AI
Draft smart status updates, catch up with summaries and smart chat, build AI Studio workflows, and run AI Teammates with the right access.
Start: What Asana is and where things liveAbout Asana AI
Asana AI is the set of AI features inside Asana, the work management app. It drafts status updates, summarizes tasks and projects, and answers questions in smart chat. AI Studio adds AI steps to your rules, and AI Teammates are agents that work on tasks with the same permissions as any user. An admin must turn on Asana AI first.
Best for: Project managers and teams who run their work in Asana and want AI to handle status updates, catch-ups and routine steps.
Good for
- Drafting project status updates from recent work
- Summarizing long tasks, projects and your inbox
- Adding AI steps and human approvals to rules in AI Studio
- Handing routine tasks to an AI Teammate whose work you can check in View activity
Where people slip
- Posting an AI status draft without editing it first
- Giving an AI Teammate access to private projects it doesn't need
- Letting an AI Studio workflow send work out with no approval step
- Forgetting that AI Studio rules stop running when credits run out
What is Asana AI?
The AI features built into Asana: smart status, smart summaries, smart chat, smart fields, AI Studio and AI Teammates. Most are on paid plans from Starter up. A super admin turns Asana AI on for the whole domain.
Does Asana train AI models on my data?
Asana says neither it nor its AI partners train models on customer data, and partners delete inputs and outputs after each query. Your company's rules on what data goes into work tools still apply.
What can an AI Teammate see?
Public data by default. You add it to private projects or teams. It answers only from work that both the Teammate and the person who triggered it can access, and it can't raise its own permissions.
How do I add a human check to an AI Studio workflow?
Add an approval task or a similar checkpoint. The workflow pauses until someone approves it. You can read the AI's reasoning in the task history under All activity.
