About Linear
Linear is a hosted issue tracker and planning system for teams that build software. Work is organised as issues with labels, priorities and assignees, grouped into cycles, and moved through states such as Todo and In Progress. Issues can be created from Slack, and incoming work can pass through a triage step that suggests labels.
Recent versions add AI agents. You can mention Linear in an issue and ask it to attempt the work, and it can open a draft pull request for review. It suits product and engineering teams that want a fast tracker driven by the keyboard.
