For teams whose work isn't only code

Linear alternative for teams whose work doesn't go through GitHub.

If your team runs on Linear and the issues that never get a pull request stay where they were, Werk is a Linear alternative that keeps that work current with AI. Each person says from their phone what they did, by voice or text, and Werk moves the card and tells whoever needs to know. Werk is AI project management for teams on the move.

Updated

In short

  • Linear: issues that move by themselves when the code moves, through GitHub.
  • Werk: cards that move with what each person says from their phone.
  • Werk doesn't connect to GitHub or any other tool today.

Where does a Linear board go stale?

Linear

  • An issue moves to In progress when its pull request opens, and to Done when it merges.
  • The launch post, the design review or the client call have no pull request.
  • Those issues stay where they were until someone moves them by hand.

Werk

  • Each person says what they did, by voice or text, code or not.
  • Werk moves the card to its step.
  • Werk tells the right person and sends a brief every morning.

When does Werk fit, and when does Linear?

Linear

  • Made for product and engineering teams: issues, cycles, projects and roadmaps.
  • Tied to the code: GitHub branches, pull requests and merges move each issue.
  • Its AI, Linear Agent, turns Slack threads into issues, writes project updates, triages new issues and writes code.

Werk

  • Made for the work that never reaches a pull request: design, content, launches, clients, operations.
  • Cards with a holder, a step and a due date.
  • Updated with what each person says from their phone, in their own language.
  • Werk uses AI to run the work from what people say, not to write code or triage tickets.

Common questions

How does Werk's intelligence help me?

You stop asking who forgot to move the cards no pull request will ever close: the copy, the design, the launch, the client. Each person tells Werk from their phone what they did, by voice or text, in their own language, and is told what's theirs. Werk uses AI to move each card to its step and send you a brief every morning with what moved, what's due and what's stuck.

Does Werk connect to GitHub?

No. Werk doesn't connect to GitHub or any other tool today. If your team's work goes through pull requests, Linear already moves those issues by itself.

Can I bring my issues over from Linear?

No. Werk doesn't import from Linear or connect to it. You tell Werk what's open, even several things in one voice note, and it makes the cards.

What does my team need?

Just a phone, iPhone or Android. Whoever coordinates from a computer also has the web app, with an overview of the whole team's work.
