FAQ

Is Aexy a direct replacement for Linear?

Aexy can replace some Linear workflows for teams that want CRM, GTM, engineering, docs, workflows, and AI agents in one company OS. The right path depends on your current process and migration risk.

When should teams choose Linear?

Linear can be the better choice when your team is already standardized around its core workflow and does not need a broader open company operating layer.
