Skipper AI

Skipper AI

Skipper AI connects Slack and Jira so engineering teams can file structured tickets without leaving chat. Install it from tryskipper.ai, connect Jira, then create issues through slash commands, thread mentions, or direct messages. The homepage promises instant tickets from conversation context, including smart assignment of epics, issue types, assignees, and custom fields.

Copying Slack threads into Jira manually wastes time and drops details. Skipper reads thread context, can analyze images shared in the conversation, and even converts a single sentence into a structured ticket on command. When the Jira issue closes, it posts back to the original Slack thread so the team sees resolution without checking another tool.

Engineering and product teams already living in Slack plus Jira are the natural fit. Pricing is $50 per month after you create your first 10 tickets for free, and the site notes that LLM output should be double-checked because accuracy is not guaranteed. Encrypted PII handling is called out on the homepage for security-conscious admins.
