Asana AI: AI Studio vs AI Teammates
Understand the difference between AI Studio and AI Teammates in Asana: what each does, when to use it and how to adopt it with governance.
A custom action, written in code, inside an Asana rule.
This is the script editor used when automation needs to go beyond a click, the same layer that supports advanced agents and rules.
AI Studio and AI Teammates are distinct, complementary products: AI Studio designs and runs AI workflows, while AI Teammates are agents that execute process steps under human supervision.
- AI Studio = building and running AI workflows
- AI Teammates = agents that execute steps with human review
- They work together: AI Studio workflows can trigger AI Teammates
- Governance and human review are essential in both
Two products, one goal
Asana AI has two offerings that are often confused: AI Studio and AI Teammates. They are distinct and complementary.
What is AI Studio?
AI Studio is where you design and run AI workflows inside Asana: intelligent automations that execute process steps with rules and context. It is the layer for building AI workflows.
What are AI Teammates?
AI Teammates are agents that execute work steps under human supervision, receive context, perform tasks and hand them back for review at defined points. This is the AI-assisted execution layer.
AI Studio vs AI Teammates
- Use AI Studio to design and automate AI workflows
- Use AI Teammates to have agents execute steps with human review
- In practice, they work together: AI Studio workflows can trigger AI Teammates
In both, the governance framework is essential. Start with an AI Opportunity Assessment.
