Linear integration
Plandeck for Linear — async-first estimation, written back to Linear
Linear's cycle workflow assumes the team agrees on estimates before the cycle starts. Plandeck is the missing layer that gets you to that agreement — without dragging everyone into a 30-minute call.
Capabilities
What's included
- OAuth connection — no API key juggling.
- Import by project, cycle, label, or filter. Bulk-add to a poker queue or async session.
- Estimate writeback to Linear's estimate field via GraphQL — instant after the team agrees.
- Cycle-aware import: pull all unestimated issues from this cycle in one click.
- Honors Linear's estimate scale (Fibonacci, T-shirt, exponential) — deck mirrors your workspace setting.
Workflow
Typical Linear + Plandeck workflow
- 01Connect Linear in Plandeck team settings. Pick the workspace and projects to sync.
- 02Open a Plandeck async session. Import unestimated issues from the upcoming cycle.
- 03Send invitations — async voters get email + Slack pings, vote on their schedule.
- 04At deadline, results write back to Linear automatically. Cycle is ready to start.
Why it fits
Why async fits Linear teams
Linear teams already dropped sync ceremonies. Cycle planning still needs estimates — so Plandeck collects them async while you prep the cycle. Everyone votes on their own schedule; results write back to Linear. No meeting on anyone's calendar.
Plans
Plan availability
Linear integration is included on the Team plan. Enterprise adds per-project access controls and audit logs for every writeback. Free and Pro tiers can import issues manually via copy-paste.
