What is a Linear AI employee?
A Linear AI employee connects to your Linear account and completes the agreed tasks there. It creates issues, updates states, maintains projects, and summarises cycles. Superkind builds it with your company knowledge, rules, and ways of working, so it uses Linear like your team does.
Unlike Zapier or Make, there is nothing to configure. You describe the outcome you need, the AI employee picks the right Linear actions, chains them with your other systems, and asks for your approval before sensitive steps.
Linear is a product development platform with issues, projects, cycles, team workflows, and project updates.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about your AI employee for Linear.
Yes. Superkind connects Linear through a managed connector. Once connected, your team can put the AI employee to work in Linear from Teams or Outlook. It reads the agreed data, takes the appropriate actions, and reports results back. You need neither custom code nor a workflow builder.
An admin authorises access to your Linear workspace and confirms the required permissions. Superkind configures the connector with you and checks the connection using an agreed test case. The AI employee can then access the approved teams, issues, projects, and cycles from Teams or Outlook.
It can create, search, prioritise, assign, and update Linear issues. It can also review projects and cycles, read comments, prepare project updates, and create a changelog from completed issues. During onboarding, you and Superkind define which actions it can complete independently and which require approval.
No. You describe the result you need in Teams or Outlook. The AI employee chooses the right Linear actions and connects them with other systems when needed. Unlike Zapier or Make, you do not need to build and maintain triggers, branches, or fixed steps. It asks when something is unclear.
Only with your approval. The AI employee can read, search, summarise, and complete agreed routine tasks independently. If it needs to delete or archive a Linear issue, create a project, move data, or publish a project update, it first shows the planned action in Teams. It proceeds only after a clear yes.
Superkind is hosted in the EU and signs a GDPR data processing agreement with you. The AI employee receives only the minimum permissions needed for your Linear tasks. Your data is not used for training. Access and actions are logged so your team can review what was read, changed, or submitted for approval.
Linear Basic costs about 8 US dollars per user per month and Linear Business about 14 US dollars. Zapier or Make often cost 20 to 100 euros per month, plus workflow maintenance. Superkind is priced per use case, a fraction of a full-time role. The comparison therefore depends on the task, volume, and responsibility required.
