What’s happening

The way teams build products is changing

Engineers ship code with AI tools, often running multiple agents at once. PMs lean on LLMs to draft specs and make sense of customer feedback. The time between idea and implementation that used to take weeks now takes hours.

But there are second-order effects:

  • Work is becoming invisibleA bug gets fixed in a coding tool, but no one outside the editor knows it happened
  • Tools lack contextEvery task starts with explaining the situation all over again
  • Coordination overhead compoundsYou’re shipping more, which means more to track, triage, and prioritize

Overcoming these challenges is hard to do on your own. Linear gets you there faster because we’ve already done the work of figuring out how AI fits into product development.

Introduction

Linear is built for this moment

Linear is purpose-built for this new era of product development. It has AI and agent workflows built in, and it ties all of your product workflows together.

It’s where the world’s fastest product teams plan, track, and coordinate work - from bugs to long-term roadmaps. 20,000+ teams have already made the switch, including OpenAI, Coinbase, and Block.

Three things make this possible:

Teams actually use it

Linear is fast, simple, and enjoyable to use. This pulls people in and keeps them coming back. Teams that migrate to Linear report significantly higher user engagement:

  • 3.3xFaster issue resolution
  • 5.0xMore teammates creating issues
  • 2.0xIncrease in reported issues

When people use the tool, data stays current. You can see what’s happening across teams, who’s working on what, and how work connects. You get a living record across product development.

Linear was the only piece of software in this domain where engineers actually enjoyed using it.

It works with the tools you’re already using

Linear is open by design. You can integrate with Cursor, Codex, GitHub Copilot, and more. Other platforms lock you into their own AI offerings, while Linear works with the tools your team has already chosen.

When your team uses these connected AI tools, their work shows up in Linear. Singleplayer AI becomes multiplayer. In fact, 70% of enterprise teams on Linear are building collaboratively with agents.

Linear also connects to the rest of your stack. Automatically pull in Slack conversations, customer data from Salesforce, support tickets from Zendesk. Linear structures all of that around issues, projects, and initiatives in a way that’s actually useful.

Linear is the source of truth for what we’re building.

Structured context means AI actually works

When you have current data and connected tools, AI has what it needs to work well. Linear acts as the context layer across your entire product development lifecycle.

When a Linear agent picks up a task or Triage Intelligence routes a bug, it’s working with everything Linear already knows about your customers, project plans, and codebase. You’re not constantly explaining the situation or hunting down information.

And with that foundation, entire workflows can run autonomously. A bug gets pulled from Intercom, triaged to the right team, picked up by an agent, and turned into a PR without manual handoffs at every step. This is what reduces coordination overhead.

We’ve dramatically reduced triage time for bugs using Linear’s AI.

Who else switched

Linear is the tool of choice for more than 20,000 organizations, from ambitious startups to major enterprises, including Fortune 20 companies.

It’s never too early or too late to make the switch. Ramp, for example, has been building with Linear from the beginning, scaling to 1,000+ employees. Coinbase, Automattic, and Block migrated to Linear after decades of building with other tools.

They switched to stay ahead as the way teams build products changes.
