Linear

What is Linear?

Linear is a modern project management and issue tracking platform built for high-performing software development teams. It combines the functionality of traditional issue trackers with an elegant, keyboard-first interface that prioritizes speed and efficiency. The product was created by former engineers from companies like Segment and Airbnb who wanted a better tool for their own workflows. Unlike more general project management tools, Linear is optimized specifically for software development cycles with features like Cycles (iterations/sprints), automated workflows, and deep GitHub/GitLab integrations. The interface is designed to minimize friction with keyboard shortcuts for nearly every action, allowing teams to manage issues, bugs, and features without interrupting their development flow. Linear emphasizes clarity, focus, and reducing the overhead typically associated with project management tools.
