Overview
We started Linear from our own frustrations building software projects in successful high-growth companies like Airbnb, Coinbase and Uber. We wanted to create the tools that focus us and our teams in making progress, not get in the way. Tools that are fast and efficient. Speed and performance was one the main things we focused on early on and keep focusing on that.
