Without you, we’d all still be stuck with sticky notes on a wall. Thank you to all the Trello users out there who have helped make Trello what it is today. We will continue operating as a standalone service, and we will continue to integrate deeply with all of the tools available out there that help people collaborate (and you can look forward to some great integrations with HipChat, Confluence and JIRA). We’re as committed to our original vision and brand as we were on launch day but we now have more firepower to fulfill that mission. In short: you can expect Trello to become even more awesome and more fun than it is today. We are certain that Atlassian understands the unique and novel reasons why Trello is so successful and well-loved. Our team will be able to focus on improving the core experience of Trello for all users. As part of Atlassian, Trello will be able to leverage investments in R&D that will enhance the product in meaningful ways. We envision a world where hundreds of millions of people collaborate in teams however they like, with their imaginations being the only constraint for what they can accomplish. We’re excited about partnering with Atlassian because we both share a philosophy of empowering teams everywhere to work in their own style. We’ve been humbled and excited to see the millions of use cases for Trello around the world, and we build the product each day proudly knowing we’re helping teams do great things. Organizations like the United Nations and the Red Cross rely on Trello to accomplish their missions. Companies like Google, National Geographic, and even the United Kingdom’s government use Trello daily. More than 19 million users later, Trello is used by everyone from the family planning their next vacation to employees at the largest enterprises in the world. Our dream was that someday we could have 100 million people using Trello to work together. We wanted Trello to be fluid and adaptable to a huge range of problems that all revolved around getting people on the same page. We wanted people to get started quickly and not get bogged down in structure. Our small idea was to take the paradigm of a sticky note on a wall and turn it into a tool that allowed people to collaborate in real time. In the business world, the culture of teamwork began to change from face time and meetings to the rise of digital collaboration tools that let teammates collaborate anywhere, anytime. People expected the tools they use at work to be as fun and easy to use as those in their personal lives. Smartphones began to change the way we connected and how we communicated with each other. At the time, the way people work was starting to shift. We launched Trello five years ago at the TechCrunch Disrupt conference in San Francisco. Today we’re excited to announce a new chapter in Trello’s story, and a new chapter for the story of the future of work.

I know changes like these can be inconvenient, and I want to help make the transition as smooth as possible. Your pads will automatically be migrated to Paper on July 19. You can export everything into a single zip folder if you’d prefer. You’ll need to create an account or sign in to get started. I built an importer that helps convert your pads to Paper docs. I’ve built a few options for moving your pads to make the transition as easy as possible. You can start using Paper today for free. Paper takes many of Hackpad’s best features-like instant collaboration, comments, and real-time editing-and adds a lot more, including additional security features, faster search, and more visibility for teams. With millions of docs created by teams around the world, Paper is off to an exciting start. That feedback has been really helpful for designing Dropbox Paper-a product inspired by the Hackpad community. I’m so grateful for all the enthusiasm and feedback from the Hackpad community over the last several years, and I’m excited to share what’s coming next. I’m writing to let you know we’ll be shutting down Hackpad on July 19.
