Collaborate

Collaborate without constraints

A new center of gravity for productivity and collaboration. Linear keeps everyone in your organization aligned and working without friction. Engineers, designers, product managers and peers — all collaborating in one tool.


Project Updates

Keep everyone in the loop

Project Updates are short status reports that keep everyone informed about the progress and health of your projects.

A progress report of all your projects

Is the project still on track?

Project Updates consist of two simple elements: A health indicator and a rich text description. The health indicator provides a high-level signal of the current project state. The rich text description allows to provide more in-depth information on the progress of the project.

To get into the habit of posting updates regularly, you can set up automatic reminders that show up in your Inbox at a specified interval.

Read and subscribe

Project Updates appear directly on the Roadmap, giving you a clear and structured progress overview of all your team's projects at a single glance.

Subscribe to the projects that are most important to you and receive notifications whenever a new Project Update has been posted.

Share on Slack

Automatically share updates to Slack for enhanced visibility.


Triage

A powerful workflow to manage unplanned work

Triage is a shared inbox to manage bug reports, feature requests, outages, and other issues that arise unexpectedly.

Link issues to their related customer conversations

A special inbox for your team

Anytime an issue is created from an integration or by a workspace member outside your specific Linear team, it will show up in Triage. This gives team members a chance to review, update, and prioritize issues before they are added to the team's workflow.

Triage responsibility

Automatically assign or notify team members about incoming new issues.

Support integrations

Get more out of Triage by connecting it to our integrations with Intercom, Front, or Zendesk. This allows your customer support team to create new Linear issues and link to existing ones directly from their customer support tool.

Comments on issue: "I'm not able to reproduce this bug", followed by a reply "Can you try this?" with a link to a Loom recording.

Sync threads between Slack and Linear

Bi-directionally sync comments between Slack and Linear, so that any message or file posted in the Slack thread will automatically cross-post to a comment thread in the Linear issue and vice versa. Linear also posts updates to the synced thread when the issue is completed, closed, or opened. This keeps everyone following along in Slack updated.

Customizable notifications

Enable personal notifications to receive Inbox notifications in Slack. Team and project notifications can be directed to dedicated Slack channels to keep everyone in the company updated.

Not on Slack?

With Linear's Discord integration you can also create issues directly from your Discord server.
