Who it works with
Who we serve
A-Players works with companies that need technology skills to execute their strategy, whether to hire a specialist or to extend the team without waiting for the next hire. It also works with business, operations and technology leaders who need a platform to deliver or need to take AI from pilot to real processes, with control, security and scale.
On Atlassian and monday.com, it serves teams in any area: from HR to Marketing, Customer Service to IT, Planning to Development and Support to Sales. The starting point can be a team or a workflow. It also welcomes tech professionals looking for their next challenge, in Software Development, Data and AI, Cloud and Infrastructure, Atlassian or monday.com, and Project or Product Management.

Specialty · IT outsourcing and tech talent
Talent as a Service
Tech specialists on the client's team when the operation needs them, from choosing the professional to delivery. When a skill is missing, execution stalls. A-Players solves this in three ways: it hires for the client's team through Tech Recruiting, extends the team through Team Extension, the A-Players IT outsourcing, and supports repetitive work with the AI-Player agents. A-Players reads the context before recommending a path.
Tech Recruiting
To hire into the client's own team. Specialized search and people-first selection of tech professionals, with technical, cultural and behavioral fit. A-Players designs the profile with leadership (technology, responsibilities, team stage and culture), runs active sourcing with technical and behavioral assessment, and presents professionals with context so the company can make the hiring decision. The client hires, and the professional's management and development stay with the client.
Team Extension, the A-Players outsourcing
To expand delivery capacity without waiting for the next hire. IT outsourcing and staff augmentation: dedicated tech professionals and teams in the client's operation and on the client's technologies, selected and hired by A-Players. The team is designed around what needs to happen, with complementary skills and profiles, and joins the client team's routine. The talent works with the client; management stays with A-Players, with Business Partners dedicated to Talent as a Service. Managing placed talent follows five practices:
The journey has six stages: recruitment, selection, development, management, performance and artificial intelligence. Recruitment and selection apply to both ways of hiring; the other stages belong to Team Extension outsourcing, where what we learn on the engagement guides the next steps in management and development.
AI-Player
The A-Players AI agents, which support the team with repetitive work, in the platforms it already uses. With the team, A-Players chooses repetitive, well-defined tasks with a clear definition of done, and organizes sources, permissions and limits before the agent starts. Then A-Players specialists validate the output and tune the agent with the team. Agents handle the repetitive tasks; management and knowledge stay human.
Specialty · Strategy, platforms and AI
Professional Services
Buying technology is the start; making it deliver results is the A-Players job. More than configuring platforms, Professional Services makes processes, knowledge and AI work in the teams' daily work: it understands the operation, then designs, implements and follows adoption through. There are six pillars, combined to fit the context:
Subscription plans
Implementation ends, evolution continues: a team that knows the client's environment handles management, support and evolution, with a clear scope instead of hour packages. The plans cover three levels. Operate without interruptions: platforms that run well and stay in use, without disrupting the team. Move forward every cycle: processes keep improving, with best practices and the platforms' new features applied to the operation. Scale with context and AI: more areas and AI at work, with SaaS FinOps and AI FinOps.
SaaS FinOps and AI FinOps
Licenses paid for and licenses used rarely match, and AI consumption has become a board-level cost. A-Players SaaS FinOps and AI FinOps show what the company pays for, uses and gets, in five points: visibility of every subscription and license, by vendor and by area; real usage (who uses what, how much, and what sits idle or duplicated); AI consumption (credits and tokens, and what each use returns to the business); governance (purchasing rules, shadow IT and security risks); and an adjustment plan to optimize, consolidate and renegotiate, with targets. It can be hired as a standalone diagnosis or come included in the subscription plans, starting with Atlassian and monday.com.
From strategy to adoption
In structured initiatives, the work doesn't end at configuration. There are seven stages: business vision (priorities, expected results and success criteria with leadership), assessment (processes, applications, bottlenecks and opportunities, listening to the teams), strategy and processes (workflows, roles, rules and architecture), implementation (workflows, automations and integrations validated with users), training (real scenarios by profile), knowledge (processes, guides and lessons in a collaborative hub) and autonomy and governance (roles, indicators and criteria to prioritize improvements). Stages, depth and pace adjust to where each operation stands.
Evaluation follows the agreed goals: delivery, quality, adoption and productivity indicators show progress, and ROI relates investments to the gains observed to guide the next cycle.
In any area, with the teams
Three examples of challenges that connect teams. Knowledge and service (HR, Customer Service and Support): workflows, knowledge base, training and AI applied to service needs. Management and visibility (Planning, Marketing and Sales): process design, platform implementation and adoption by the teams themselves. Operations and delivery (IT and Development): architecture, integrations, support, evolution and training for the operation.
All work, connected. Intelligence to act.
A-Players Intelligence
The difference starts before AI. A-Players organizes knowledge, processes and applications so AI finds the right information, answers with context and carries out tasks inside the process. A-Players Intelligence brings together three AI platforms from strategic partners, each for a different kind of challenge: Atlassian for company context, CISP1 for custom AI and monday.com for each department's operations. When work flows between them, AI stops giving generic answers and starts supporting real work. A-Players recommends where each one delivers the most, based on the company's maturity, the teams involved and where its processes stand.
Atlassian, company-wide context
The whole company in a single flow, with the same context for teams and AI. A-Players connects strategy, work, knowledge and AI on Atlassian so every team finds what it needs and decides with context. The System of Work organizes how goals, execution, knowledge and intelligence come together: align work to goals, plan and track work together, unleash collective knowledge and make AI part of the team. There are five Collections, one for every team:
The Collections sit on the same Teamwork Graph, which links people, goals, work and knowledge. Rovo uses that context in three ways: Search finds answers in what the company already knows, Chat talks, summarizes and creates with the work context, and Agents take on tasks and workflows, within permissions. The diagnosis drives the recommendation: A-Players starts from the team's challenge. Atlassian is the fit when many teams work on the same context, with governance, when processes cross departments and when AI needs to know the company.
Two conversations can't wait, and in both the first step is an assessment. Rovo: Rovo is already included in paid Atlassian Cloud plans, and what separates a generic search from the right answer is context, with organized spaces, permissions in order and teams who know how to use it. Data Center to Cloud migration: Atlassian has announced the end of Data Center, and A-Players plans the migration by reviewing processes, permissions, apps and licenses before the move, to land in the Cloud ready for Rovo.
On Atlassian, A-Players works through the six pillars of Professional Services: consulting on Collections, processes and environment architecture; subscription plans for site management, support and evolution; Jira, Confluence and Loom training by profile; Rovo and agents on the Teamwork Graph; SaaS FinOps and AI FinOps.
A-Players is an Atlassian Platinum Solution Partner, a level reached in 2022, in less than two years of partnership. In 2023, it received the Atlassian Partner of the Year 2022: Rising Star award, the rising star among Atlassian Solution Partners in the Americas, and earned the Service Management (ITSM) specialization. A-Players specialists are Atlassian Certified Experts. The path, year by year, is under History.
CISP1, custom software and AI
Strategy becomes product, product becomes operation. CISP1 is a strategic A-Players partner and the application layer for enterprise AI: A-Players leads sales, marketing and client management, and CISP1 builds the solution, always with A-Players alongside. It builds and runs custom AI solutions between AI models (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and open models, chosen per scenario) and the operation's systems (ERP, CRM, data, APIs and legacy systems), with governance from the architecture up, in private, hybrid or cloud environments. Four disciplines run through the whole cycle:
The work follows six stages, from the first map to ongoing evolution: AI Mapping (pain points, data, risks and opportunities), Business Design (experience, flow and indicators), Data & Context (connected, governed data), Build & Integrate (agents, applications and integrations), Deploy & Validate (quality, security and performance) and Operate & Scale (monitoring, evolution and scale). In real work, intelligence goes through six steps, inside the workflows and systems the operation already uses: connect, prepare context, produce intelligence, orchestrate agents, execute, and monitor and learn. In every stage, policies, permissions, traceability and auditing are guided by specialists.
The solution can be knowledge that answers, assistants and agents, automated processes, data for decisions, document understanding or computer vision. CISP1 is the fit when AI pilots never reach production, data is spread across many systems, no off-the-shelf product fits or sensitive data calls for governance from the architecture up. Website: cisp1.io.
monday.com, operations for every department
People and agents, work that really moves. Each department runs its own process, without code, on the same data foundation. A-Players makes monday.com's AI Work Platform work the way the client's operation does: clear processes, connected data and agents that take on repetitive tasks, reviewed by the team. monday.com provides the platform; A-Players brings the problem framing, a design that fits and the close support that makes the change happen. There are four products on one foundation:
On the AI side, Sidekick answers and summarizes, Agents carry out tasks and Vibe builds apps from a description, alongside AI workflow builder and AI Notetaker. AI joins the flow when it knows the context, respects the process and gives back useful work. The A-Players method on monday.com has four steps: understand (goals, bottlenecks and success criteria), architect (processes, data, integrations and governance), activate (configuration, adoption and training) and evolve (guided use, ongoing support and new waves of value).
The six pillars of Professional Services apply to the account: design of boards, workflows and integrations; subscription plans for account management, support and evolution; training tracks for users, owners and leaders; Sidekick, Agents and Vibe applied to each department's workflows; SaaS FinOps and AI FinOps. monday.com is the fit when each department needs the autonomy and speed to run its own operation, without code, with AI in the team's daily work.
The monday.com partnership began in 2021, with A-Players as a Silver Partner. In 2022, A-Players became a Gold Partner; in 2024, it received monday.com's Regional Partners Recognition for Portfolio Excellence; and in 2025, it became an Advanced Delivery Partner, a recognition of the quality of its delivery.
The A-Players method
Context Graph
The A-Players method for AI to work with the company's context: context before scale, processes before automation. It has five layers:
The work runs in three phases (business and processes; platforms and agents; feedback and ROI), and feedback flows back into context: the base evolves with every cycle. AI adoption grows from a well-connected base, in four steps: direction (goals, vocabulary and who makes the work happen), foundation (processes, data, integrations and governance, connected), intelligence (AI applied where it cuts manual work and speeds up decisions) and adoption (real use, team autonomy and continuous evolution). Context Graph is not the same as the Teamwork Graph, which belongs to Atlassian.
None of this came ready-made. A-Players started with people and platforms, putting the right talent and the right platform in place. Then it brought the method into the platform through processes, linked teams into products and solutions, organized the data that ties it all together and, finally, began applying AI on top of the client's context. Each step opened the next.
A company made of people. Since 2017.
History
A-Players was born in 2017, in Porto Alegre (RS), Brazil. The founder and CEO is Jorge Abraham, and the team works all across Brazil, based in Porto Alegre. The company started with people and platforms, has reached artificial intelligence, and what drives it is still the same: people.
The name. In the American corporate world, an A-Player is someone with an insatiable drive to learn who pursues excellence in everything they do: people who don't lean on excuses and always find a way to the best solution. The brand. The symbol was born from the magic cube, with colored pieces that form the A. In 2024, the rebranding redrew it with eight triangles, two of each color of the spectrum, and the gap at the center of the base is the opening of the A. The signature. A-Players was born an A-People Company, a company made of people. With AI at work, the signature evolved, and today it is We Are AI-People Company: people and agents together, with human management and knowledge.
Nine years, piece by piece:
People, method and partnership
Culture
Technology starts with people. A-Players connects talent, specialized services and AI to turn strategy into results, and it selects and develops challenge-driven professionals. People and agents work together, with human management and knowledge.
The problem first, then the technology. A-Players understands the business to connect team, processes and platforms, from decision to execution, until results show up in the operation. It works in three moves: listen before proposing (the team's moment and the business goals define where to start), give shape to what's complex (the challenge becomes talent profiles, processes and solutions that fit the context) and keep the evolution in motion (develop people, support adoption and guide each team's next steps as it grows).
Anyone can copy a product. Not the care.
Products can be copied and prices can be beaten; the way it treats each client is the greatest A-Players advantage. It is a commitment from leadership, the standard behind every conversation, every delivery and every course correction, in four pillars:
Being an A-Player
A-Players looks for technology people who are curious, accountable for what they build and eager to grow together: curiosity, autonomy, collaboration and evolution define who belongs. People who work with A-Players get close management (a Business Partner supports their work, with active listening, support and alignment with the client), growth with a plan (skills mapping and technical growth tied to real challenges), AI every day (ongoing AI training applied to their work) and closeness even at a distance (onboarding, celebrations, internal events, community and engagement surveys). Applications are open at Be an A-Player.
