📝 Our Take on Linear Pricing
Linear is the fastest project management tool we have ever tested — sub-100ms interactions even with 5,000+ issues. The free tier now includes unlimited members (rare in this space), but caps at 250 issues which fills up fast for active projects. Their AI triage feature is surprisingly accurate at auto-categorizing incoming issues.
At $8/user/month for Basic, Linear is competitively priced for engineering teams. The free tier works for small side projects, but any team shipping weekly will hit the 250-issue cap within 2 months. The jump to Basic is worth it for the unlimited issues alone.
