Linear is an issue tracking and project management tool built specifically for software product teams, with a fast, keyboard-driven interface.
Linear's differentiator is opinionated speed: fewer configuration options than Jira or ClickUp in exchange for a snappier interface, built-in cycles, and agent-facing features like Triage Intelligence aimed at engineering teams that want less setup, not more knobs to turn.
Best for small-to-mid software product teams rather than general creative or marketing teams. Its opinionated structure is a poor fit for teams that need heavy customization of fields and workflows.
Per-seat pricing. Free plan caps at 250 issues and 2 teams. Basic is $10/user/month billed annually, Business is $16/user/month annually.
A purpose-built tool for planning and building products.
