Introducing Linear

Linear is the product development system for planning, building, and tracking work. Teams use it to capture requests, decide what to build, coordinate delivery, and understand progress.

What Linear brings together⁠

• Incoming work
  Capture requests from your team, customers, and connected tools.
  
• Planning
  Organize work into backlogs, cycles, projects, and larger initiatives.
  
• Delivery
  Track issues from planned work through development, code review, and completion.
  
• Progress
  Use views, project updates, and Insights to understand what is moving and where attention is needed.
  
• AI and agents
  Use AI to help with routine work, research, triage, and delivery. Agents can work on issues alongside your team and keep their progress connected to the same work.

The rest of this guide introduces these building blocks and helps your team decide how to use them.
