What is Linear?
Linear is a modern project management tool built specifically for high-performance software teams. Known for its blazing-fast interface, keyboard shortcuts, and opinionated workflows, Linear removes the friction from issue tracking and project planning.
With cycles (sprints), roadmaps, triage, and tight Git integrations, Linear helps engineering teams ship faster. Companies like Vercel, Ramp, and Retool have switched from Jira to Linear for its speed and simplicity.
