Asana AI features and admin controls

Asana AI refers to a feature set powered by generative AI and large language models (LLMs) from Asana’s AI partners (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic). Models from Asana’s AI partners may be hosted on third-party servers or AWS Bedrock, a service offered through Asana’s long-standing cloud service provider.

Customers can choose to enable Asana AI features for their domain (i.e., organization or workspace). If Asana AI features are not enabled:

  • Users in the organization/workspace will not have access to the AI features.
  • Organization/workspace's data will not be processed to power these features.

Data and Safeguards 

Asana AI features powered by AI partners use metadata and user generated content from your organization/workspace (e.g., content you enter into Asana like task titles and task descriptions, which may include user names) to help users optimize their work with AI.

Neither Asana nor Asana’s AI partners use customer data to train AI models of any kind. Moreover, Asana’s AI partners configure their services to promptly delete input and output data following completion of the relevant query and/or response.

To learn more about how Asana processes your information, please see Asana’s Privacy Statement. For further details and answers to other frequently asked questions, please visit the Asana AI FAQ and Asana Trust Center.

The following features can be enabled/disabled using the Enable Asana AI control in the admin console.

  • Smart fields: Organize projects to support cross-functional collaboration with auto-generated custom fields.
  • Smart status: Identify blind spots, open questions, and roadblocks to find an efficient path towards your goals with automatic status updates.

  • Smart goals: Standardize and improve the effectiveness of goal-setting with smart goals. Smart goals analyzes existing goals and offers suggestions for improvement, including adding success criteria, impact summaries, parent goals, supporting subgoals, and assigning accountable teams.
  • Smart projects: Quickly create customized projects with smart projects. Smart projects suggests descriptions, sections, and custom fields all based on the project's name and purpose.
  • Smart rule creator: Create rules with AI by providing simple, and natural language instructions via prompts.
  • AI Studio: Build no-code smart workflows to pass off your teams’ busywork.

Enabling and disabling Asana AI features

Super admins of organizations and workspace billing owners and creators can enable or disable Asana AI features as follows:

  • Click your profile picture in Asana and navigate to the Admin console
  • Click the Settings tab
  • Under Domain settings select Asana AI
  • Click the checkbox for Enable Asana AI

From this page, designated admins can choose to enable or disable Asana AI for their entire domain. After disabling, Asana AI experiences will no longer appear or process data from your organization.

To enable these features, you will need to complete the super admin verification process or contact the Support team. This behavior also applies to divisions in Asana, as divisions do not have super admins.

Please note that if you are on a division plan, it is still possible to enable AI features via your admin console. However, only a super admin will be able to take action on this. If there is no super admin, a current admin will first need to complete the super admin verification.

To learn more about Asana AI Advanced Settings, check out Asana AI Customizations.If you are an admin of an organization that does not have at least one super admin, you can disable Asana AI features, but cannot enable them. To enable these features, you will need to complete the super admin verification process or contact the Support team. This behavior also applies to divisions in Asana, as divisions do not have super admins.
