Opportunities — the stories that would move this product's scores, from its own judged verdictsOpportunitiestop 8 of 65 stories with headroom

What would move Asana’s scores — derived from its own judged verdicts, biggest headroom first. Each line quotes what the judge found missing; shipping it (or evidencing it publicly) is the fix.

  1. Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productPlug MCP servers into this product so it can use their tools

    nonemoves agent-readyimpact 45

    Evidence confirms Asana publishes an official MCP server (asana-probe-3), meaning Asana exposes its own tools to other MCP clients — but the story asks the reverse: whether a user can plug external MCP servers into Asana so its AI (e.g., AI Teammates/AI Studio) can consume their tools.

  2. Onboarding — getting started and time-to-first-value storiesThat exporting my workspace preserves full history—comments, attachments, and audit trails—not just task titles

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    No evidence pack item addresses workspace export functionality, let alone preservation of comments, attachments, or audit trails during export; docs focus on API, automation, and AI Teammates instead.

  3. Privacy posture — data-handling and privacy storiesPrevent my data from being used to train AI models

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    Missing: explicit documentation of an AI-training opt-out/opt-in setting, data processing terms addressing model training, and any admin control to restrict data use for AI training.

  4. Security — security posture and hardening storiesThe vendor's published uptime SLA and can check real-time incident status via a public status page

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    No evidence pack item mentions an SLA, uptime guarantee, or a public status page with real-time incident reporting; all developer docs focus on API usage, deprecations, and app components rather than platform reliability commitments.

  5. Collaboration — working as a team — sharing, comments, roles, simultaneous editingSee teammates' changes reflected instantly across open sessions without refreshing

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    The evidence pack contains no mention of real-time UI sync, live presence, or websocket-based updates in Asana's interface — only API/webhook automation, developer sandbox, and AI Teammate features, none of which address instant cross-session UI updates for engineers viewing shared work.

  6. Onboarding — getting started and time-to-first-value storiesWhether my plan enforces a minimum seat count or annual billing commitment before I subscribe

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    No evidence in the pack addresses Asana's pricing plans, minimum seat requirements, or annual billing commitments; all evidence concerns API/developer docs and general community sentiment.

  7. Collaboration — working as a team — sharing, comments, roles, simultaneous editingCreate and organize shared docs and notes alongside my project work

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    No evidence in the pack shows a native Asana docs/notes feature for organizing shared documentation alongside project work; the docs and community items focus on tasks, API/dev platform, and AI Teammates, not a wiki/notes capability.

  8. Security — security posture and hardening storiesSecure organization access with SSO and SAML

    nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30

    The evidence pack contains no documentation or claims about Asana supporting SSO or SAML for organization access; all docs are about the API, integrations, and AI features.
