Product family

Linear, product by product

Linear is one app with one data model — the judged core plus the three genuinely separable adoption surfaces around it; everything else the site names (Insights, Customer Requests, Triage Intelligence) is a plan-gated feature, not a product line.

1 of 4 lines judged in an arena · flagship: Linear in Project Management

Linear

Judged

Issue tracking, projects, cycles, and initiatives for product teams — the core app every other surface hangs off.

linear.app/docs

Asks

Not yet judged

Internal ticketing: requests filed from Slack, email, or web forms — by people without Linear accounts — become triaged Linear issues (Business and Enterprise plans).

linear.app/docs/linear-asks

A genuinely separate adoption surface, but no internal-ticketing/ITSM arena exists, and its output is ordinary Linear issues judged inside the parent entry.

Linear for Agents

Not yet judged

Third-party coding agents (Cursor, Devin, Codex, Sentry Seer...) join the workspace as assignable teammates via the agents directory, remote MCP server, and Agent Sessions API.

linear.app/developers/agents

A platform surface of the same workspace — its agent-facing capabilities (MCP server, GraphQL API, webhooks) are judged inside the parent entry's agenticness stories.

Coding Sessions

Not yet judged

Delegate agentic coding from an issue: Claude Code or Codex runs in a sandbox, drafts PRs, and returns reviewable diffs — usage-priced via AI credits.

linear.app/docs/coding-sessions

Orchestrates third-party coding agents rather than being one — judging it in ai-coding against the very agents it hosts would double-count them.

A judged line competes in its arena on the same stories as every rival — family membership never affects scoring. Lines without a fitting arena stay unscored until one exists. See the methodology.
